People Groups

Jesus' command to reach all nations remains the Church's mission today. In a world of 7.9 billion people, many remain unresponsive to the Good News. The sobering reality is that over three billion individuals who represent more than 7,000 distinct people groups have never even had meaningful access to the message of Jesus. Among these, Frontier Unreached People Groups (FPGs) exist in complete spiritual isolation, with fewer than one in a thousand identifying as followers of Jesus in any capacity.

Behind each statistic stands a person created in God's image— individuals with dreams, families, struggles, and cultural identities. Without intentional outreach, generations will continue to live and die without ever encountering the hope found in Jesus. Your generosity creates pathways for this life-changing gospel message to reach those who are waiting to hear it.

This past year, gifts to this category sparked transformation across continents. In Burundi, Discipleship Leadership Training has equipped local leaders to establish sustainable ministries in previously unreached villages. Your contributions have funded the purchase of Bibles in local dialects, placing scripture directly into the hands of Bible teachers and disciplers. Former Muslim-background evangelists have enabled the gospel to spread in restricted areas. In the United States, the refugee youth initiative has multiple language groups. The Native American Income Generator Project has helped communities launch sustainable businesses on reservations that hadn't seen new businesses in years.

Giving to the PEOPLE category helps the gospel message continue to go out into all the world, including those who haven't yet experienced the lifechanging love of Jesus.
