Our team split here.  Some stayed with the Sunshine preschool, while the others went further out to locate tribal groups.  An elephant ride about the countryside started our day. We rode through a local village, where we were able to prayer walk.  Our next task was to search for some tribal people groups.
Vehicles are loaded and roads filled with scooters, people, dogs, children, pigs, etc.  Driving at night is a challenge, as there are no street lights and lots of activity on the roads.
Our trip took us over a river and headed out to research a certain tribal group of the area.  We prayer walked through the area.  It was a powerful experience, and brought this verse to life:  
​"Again I say
 to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven."  Matt 18:19
Folk religion is most prevalent, with emphasis on ceremony and sacrifice.   The most common religion here is no religion.  Again, through the lack of translators and newness to the area, prayer walking was the only option to reach these people.
Our trip was good, and opened our eyes to a different culture.

It was a great trip, we met new people and led some to Christ.
