80% of the world’s evangelical Christians live in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Over the last 50 years, God’s church has grown exponentially in these areas.

These regions have tremendous mission sending potential to help bring the gospel to unreached peoples, but they currently send only 20% of the world’s cross-cultural missionaries!

Southeast Asia is home to 700 million people with an incredibly&nbsp;diverse population of Muslims, Buddhist, and Hindus who desperately need to hear the gospel. Nearly 50% of them remain unreached with&nbsp;the truth of Jesus.
 What is exciting and strategic about SE Asia is its significant mission&nbsp;sending potential with over 30 million evangelicals in the region who&nbsp;could be mobilized to spread the gospel to the Unreached around&nbsp;them. Working in partnership with indigenous churches and ministries,&nbsp;our SE Asia based team networks and collaborates to lead trainings,&nbsp;create reproducing small groups discipling believers in God&rsquo;s heart for&nbsp;the nations, and assists Christians to actively move towards those&nbsp;who remain unreached with the gospel.

Kenya is one of the most Christian nations in the world, yet they send only 0.001% of their believers as missionaries. Furthermore, Kenya is surrounded by many unreached peoples, including many within its own borders, who will live their lives having never heard the name of Jesus.
Our focus is to partner with local churches to help them to live on mission locally and to send missionaries globally.

Lima, Peru serves as the base for the Via Latin American Regional Team. The Church in Latin American is both strategic and ripe for mobilization. The cultural, linguistic and physical similarities Latinos share with many people around the world, especially Arabic Muslims in the Middle East, make them potentially one of the most powerful mission forces in the world. We are working with key leaders and organizations in Latin America to bring mission vision, training and mobilization to pastors, leaders, congregations, families, and college students.
