CHALLENGE 2026: ADOPT THE BASQUE PEOPLE AND OTHER MINORITY LANGUAGE PEOPLES IN EUROPE 馃實
Hello, friends! 馃憢We wish you a wonderful year walking with Jesus ✝️ in 2026, and we want to share a challenge with you:
馃檹 Adopt the Basque people—and other minority language peoples in Europe—to pray for and bless.
In the world of missions, little is said about these peoples, despite the great spiritual need that exists among them. Sadly, it is often assumed that because they live in countries with dominant languages, they do not need communities of faith in the language of their hearts ❤️馃敟. However, many remain unreached peoples.
馃摉 God breaks our centralised thinking...
At Pentecost, the gospel was proclaimed in the languages of each people:
‘we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!’ (Acts 2:11).
馃敟 And Jesus himself said:
‘Let us go over to the other side’ (Mark 4:35). —and he did so to free a person who lived in a Gentile land.
❓ So the question is: Do you want to adopt a people who are often marginalised?
✉️ If you need information about the Basque people, you can write to us.
And if you would like to learn about other minority language peoples in Europe, we invite you to visit the website of the missionary organisation Linguae Christi, dedicated to sharing the Gospel in these languages.
馃毝♂️ ‘Let us go over to the other side’
Blessings,
The Scott Rizzo Family

馃帴 Note: We would like to share a video (with English subtitles) that we made a few years ago about the mission in the minority languages of Europe.

Merry Christmas
In Christmas:
angels
speak,
an old
woman has a son,
a virgin
becomes pregnant
a priest
remains silent,
the king
is mocked,
the
peasants receive the news from heaven first
and God
becomes human in a poor, migrant and marginal child.
THE
IMPOSSIBLE IS POSSIBLE.
With the
incarnation the beauty of God reappears on earth. It is the manifestation of
the splendor of God. God has not limited himself to letting himself be felt. He
has been seen. He has made a face. His name is Jesus.
Merry
Christmas

Basque People
Hello friend! 馃
We would like to invite you to be part of our support team in missionary work among the Basque people. This year, God has allowed us to move forward in planting a church in Euskera, as well as continuing to share the gospel in different ways and participating in missions in other countries. 馃檹✝️馃實
To continue moving forward, we still need to cover part of our budget: rent, Iker's therapy and medical treatment, book printing, and transportation. Your help—even if it seems small—makes a huge difference. 馃憤馃徏
If you feel led to support us, you can choose a monthly contribution for one year:
$5, $10, $20, $50, $100… or any amount you wish.
Thank you for walking with us.
God bless you greatly.
Daniel, Martu, and Iker 馃檶馃従馃槝

Daniel, Marta and Iker Scott (Basque Country)
Hello, friend!
We are the Scott Rizzo family, and we are currently serving God in the Basque Country, in one of Europe's minority languages: Basque.
We love sharing this beautiful calling with you. Together, we will continue to share the gospel in the language of the Basque people's hearts and create indigenous communities in Basque that are open so that Basques can also worship, listen to, and follow Jesus in their language and culture.
Thank you for your prayers, friendship, and collaboration. And thank you for accepting the call to be part of extending God's Kingdom among the Basque people.
Alone we cannot, but together we can. Blessings,
Daniel, Martu, and Iker Scott

Updates Carlos and Alicia Scott
Dear Friends,
We thank God for your lives and are very encouraged to continue serving the Lord, the entire church,
and all peoples with you.
We are well and continue training, educating, and mentoring field workers, pastors, leaders,
and the emerging new generation.
This month, Carlos will be teaching classes at the IIbet Institute on Cross-Cultural Discipleship.
He will also be teaching the Perspectives on the Global Christian Movement course in the north of the
country and will then travel to the province of Neuqu茅n in southern Argentina. We ask for your prayers that our good God protect us during this time and that we may share the spiritual freshness that comes through our
Lord.
We ask for your prayers for one of our sons and his family who are serving in the Basque Country.
They are looking for a rental home that will allow them to have a long-term contract in the town of
Orio. Finding one is very difficult at this time. All their work, focused on making disciples and
generating a discipleship movement among the Basques, is key to their ability to settle in this town
or another nearby. Our grandson Iker, who is autistic, also needs to live in that town, which already
has a school where he attends and other activities. Please pray for them and for our grandson Iker.
May God provide everything they need and bring healing to Iker's life.
Thank you so much for continuing to walk together and united in prayer. We love you and pray for
you.

"The Passover shows that you can Truth put in a tomb but will not stay there." 1 Co 15:1-8
Dear Friends
This Easter season reminds us that life triumphs over death.
-In the face of the evil that tears us apart, the fortitude that magnifies us.
-In the face of adversity that baffles us, the strength that exalts us.
-In the face of the evil that afflicts us, the hope that revives us.
In the midst of any darkness, disappointment or frustration we must once again remember that there is a new day and a new dawn. Light triumphs over darkness, life over death, justice over injustice, truth over lies, and love over hate.
We love you and pray for all of you. Let us make this news known: I have seen the Lord! (Jn 20:18)
With a strong and Big Hug. Happy Easter and God Bless You.
Carlos and Alicia Scott

Bajau in Indonesia
Bajau in Indonesia
The Bajau (sometimes referred to as Sea Gypsies) are a highly mobile maritime people group found throughout the coastal areas of Sulawesi, Maluku, Kalimantan, Sumatra and East Nusa Tenggara. Two to six families will group together in an alliance to fish together. They often share food, nets and gear. They even pool their labor. The Bajau are Sunni Muslim of the Shafi’i school. Claims of religious piety and learning are an important source of individual prestige. Shamans (dukun) hold public seances and trance dancing in the Bajau boat-dwelling communities at least once a year.
Ministry Obstacles
The nomadic lifestyle of these people makes it difficult to establish any kind of long term relationship with them.
Scripture Focus
"Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of his praise be heard," Psalm 66:8
Scripture Prayer
Pray that today’s people group will loudly sing His praises to other nations.
Prayer Focus
Pray for Christians to assist the Bajau with infrastructure development and renovations in health and education. Pray for mission workers to provide medical services and literacy courses. Pray for the distribution of gospel recordings (which are available) to the Bajau. Pray these would be valued by the people and passed from person to person. Pray for many Bajau to soon come to Christ. Pray they would clearly understand who Jesus is, and not mix the purity of the gospel with folk religion.
