Ministry-at-a-Glance Primary Ministry Focus Training Asians to do missions and church planting in the Philippines and among the least reached in Asia.
The People East and South Asia have the most populous people groups in the world (including India and ChinaÑboth with populations over
1 billion), and more than 87 percent of the least reached people groups live in this area. The majority of Asians adhere to the three largest
non-Christian religions of the world (Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam). Religions that are the most resistant to the exclusive claims of Christ.
Major Challenges Because most of Asia is part of the developing world and most Asians are first generation Christians, they often lack the confidence, training, and finances to oversee and expand the fledgling churches that they shepherd.
Prayer Focus That through these leaders, "the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored" (2 Thes. 3:1).
