Praying for the Unreachedનમૂનો

More than 3 billion people worldwide don’t have access to local churches, pastors, or Bibles in their native languages. They need to hear the good news! Join believers from around the world as we pray to reach those who’ve never heard the gospel.

This region is the historic homeland of Christianity, and some indigenous churches trace their history back to the first century. For many adherents of these ancient churches, though, being Christian is largely an ethnic or cultural identity, rather than a personal relationship with Jesus.

Islam originated in Arabia in the seventh century and spread quickly. It now dominates the region, and the majority of the 264 million unreached people in this region are Arab Muslims. Large populations of Jews, Berbers, Persians (Iranians), and Kurds also live in this region. Many Muslims are now coming to faith in Christ. Newer churches, especially those composed of believers from Muslim backgrounds, are vibrant and active.

- Pray for hearts to be open to the gospel, especially among Muslims, Jews, and nominal Christians.

- Pray for God to continue to send dreams and visions to people in this region, as has been happening for decades.
