Over the past 25 years, we’ve seen the greatest expansion of Christ’s Kingdom in history, but 1/4 of the world remains unreached.
Incredible Progress
In 1980, 60% of the world’s population lived in frontier people groups without believers or churches. Today, only 25% remain! Wouldn’t it be incredible to see every person reached in our lifetime?
Obstacles
Progress ≠ Completion
Half of all non-believers live among believers in “REACHED” people groups. The other half of all non-believers live in Unreached People Groups (UPGs: <2% evangelicals). 40% of all Unreached People Groups now have movements to Christ among them!
A Shift in Focus
With this tremendous progress, we can become more laser focused. Rather than having 7,000+ people groups to reach, we can zero in on the 300 Frontier People Groups.
Understanding Frontier People Groups
If there is no known movement to Christ and less than 0.1% Christian of any kind, then it is called a
Frontier People Group. Today, there are 300 of these groups.
What makes them hard to reach?
Frontier People Groups have virtually no Christians living among them (<0.1%). They have no churches or believers to partner with. They've had no response to witness for many centuries. They've had few or no witnesses try to reach them. Primarily made up of Muslim or Hindu cultures, they consider Jesus to be only a god of the Christians.
The Answer
Reach every person, tribe, and tongue with the Gospel
To do this, we need to send workers who will be trained, supported, and cared for by an experienced team. We need to mobilize additional workers. We need to cover these workers and the nations in prayer.
We need to be strategic, creative, and persistent
We train and send workers from the US and people from within/nearby the countries we are trying to reach. We combine proven strategies with new creative strategies and undergird everything in prayer.
Will you partner with us to mobilize and train more qualified workers?
Want to support over 350 active workers, and engage the Church in the Great Commission? The need is too urgent to send workers who don’t have the training and support they need to thrive. Their partnership with Team Expansion ensures that won’t be the case.
Every day, more than 60,000 people die without ever hearing the Gospel
Partner with us today and send qualified workers dedicated to Reaching the Unreached.
The Need
You Can Help Reach the Unreached
Team Expansion is growing! Over the last 5 years, we have seen over 8,000 new simple churches with 25,020 baptisms! Over 86,000 souls are now attending a fellowship launched by a Team Expansion worker (or a new believer we’re training). With this growth comes the added cost for everything Team Expansion does: the recruiting, training, and sending of missionaries, travel and field visits, and many other outreaches.
Become an Impact Partner
We need a team of monthly Impact Partners who can help us catalyze more movements! Your financial gift will have an eternal impact. For 2023, we need $40,000 in monthly donations. This might look like 20 churches giving $1,000/month and 200 individuals giving $100/month. So far, $13,000 has been filled.
Will You Fill One of the Remaining Slots?
How would Team Expansion Launch this initiative?
Our home office campus, Emerald Hills, has served as a launching point for hundreds of full-time missionaries and summer missions interns and has hosted thousands of hours of prayer and training. Emerald Hills is the hub from which we mobilize new prayer support and new workers. Emerald Hills is the training center that equips those workers to be effective multipliers and supports them through the highs and lows of serving.
God brought the vision of Emerald Hills to life in 2009. Since then, we have seen:
220+
Missionaries Sent
140+
Trainings Hosted
190+
Home Office Visits from Missionaries on the Field
100k+
Hours of Community Prayer for the Nations
