The Ngwoi live in an area of Nigeria that can be difficult to reach during the rainy season.  Though they consider Islam to be their religion, they often have traditional festivals and dances.  There are no Gospel resources in their language but there are many available in Hausa.  An Engaging Church could partner with local Baptist churches to target the Ngwoi.  They could help mobilize local believers, casting the vision for reaching the lost around them.
