Who they are
The Pholo are a Tibeto-Burman indigenous community living in the mountains of southwestern China. With their own cultural identity and distinct language, they live in rural villages dedicated to farming and raising livestock. Their ancestral traditions and animistic practices shape daily community life, while geographic isolation and lack of contact with the gospel keep the group distant from the message of Jesus.
