Racing in the Name of a Volcano

mount-tamboraOn April 10, 1815, Mount Tambora on Sumbawa Island erupted. It shot volcanic material 27 miles into the sky, caused tsunamis, buried villages, and killed tens of thousands of people. On April 10 and 11 of this year, there will be several events to commemorate the disaster, calling it “Tambora Greets the World.” Several districts in West Nusa Tenggara will hold events.

According to the tourism minister, West Nusa Tenggara is one of Indonesia’s most prominent tourist destinations. The Tourism Ministry expects 15,000 people to attend festival, which will include traditional dancing, music, and horse races.

Please pray for believers at the event to be able to get to know people and have opportunities to share the Gospel.
