Antambahoaka - Sambatra

The Antambahoaka, like the majority of the Malagasy people, honor their ancestors through a variety of rituals; the most significant of these being the Sambatra celebration which takes place every 7 years. The Sambatra is a commemoration of the journey made by their Arab ancestors to Mananjary. It ends with a collective circumcision of all boys born in the previous seven years. It is a time of great celebration punctuated by traditional dances and unfortunately much alcohol. John 6:44 says that “no one can come to Jesus unless the Father who sent Jesus draws him.” Pray this week that a multitude of Antambahoaka people will be drawn by the Father to Jesus.
