We are committed to reaching the unreached in Myanmar
by any means possible & working with local ministries within Myanmar.
Unreached people groups are distinct from “lost” or “unbelievers” as they have not yet really heard the good news of Jesus and/or do not have ready access to a church, Bible or Christian.
Unreached people groups are an ethnic group with their own language, history & beliefs which means there are challenges in communicating the Gospel. It means there is less than 2% evangelical Christians who belong to the people group & they need help in advancing the Kingdom to reach those in their communities & beyond.
Total unreached in Myanmar:
44,907,209
An unreached or least-reached people is a people group among which there is no indigenous community of believing Christians with adequate numbers and resources to evangelize this people group without outside assistance. – Source Joshua Project
