Praying for the UnreachedSýnishorn

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.

South Asia includes Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. It is a very diverse region, with many languages, religious beliefs, political systems, and cultural practices. The majority of people practise Hinduism, Islam, or Buddhism. South Asia is home to about 45% of Asia’s population and more than 25% of the world’s population. A staggering 95% of the world’s least evangelized people groups live in South Asia. India alone has a population of 1.37 billion people, with 2,700 unreached people groups. Christians face opposition from Islamic societies in Bangladesh, Pakistan, and the Maldives, as well as increasing restrictions in India, Nepal, and Bhutan.
