Overview
Our long-term goal is to see an indigenous church established among a people group in South Asia who currently have little or no access to the gospel. This is a commitment that spans many years, rooted in learning language and culture, building trust, and investing deeply in relationships within the community.
The early years of this work focus on learning both the national language and the language of the people group, as well as understanding local culture and daily life. During this time, relationships are formed through everyday interactions and, later, through a locally appropriate business that provides a natural way to live and work among the community.
These foundations create the access and trust needed for meaningful, long-term engagement.
Over time, as relationships grow and communication deepens, the focus shifts to gathering believers, discipleship, training local leaders, and translating Scripture so faith can take root in the heart language of the people. The goal is to see a healthy, locally led, and reproducing church established - one that belongs to the community and continues well beyond our involvement.
This ministry takes place in a region where significant cultural, social, and religious barriers exist. Alongside spiritual needs, many people also face poverty and hardship. As God’s church is established, the hope is that lives are transformed both spiritually and practically, contributing to lasting change within the wider community.
