Who they are
The Ahnal, also called Anal, live in southeastern Manipur, in northeastern India, and identify as Naga. The Christian faith reached them in 1913, when two young men came to know Jesus at a mission school and returned to their villages to share what they had learned. There was strong resistance, and the first Anal Baptist church was not founded until 1919. Today, most identify as Christians and make their living from farming and raising livestock.
