Native Missionaries Over three billion people—60% of the world’s population live in Asia. 94% of them are lost and most of them have never heard the Name of Jesus! The number of countries closed to traditional foreign missions is increasing. Yet in China alone, some 25,000 people are getting saved each day. In India 17,000 people are coming to Christ daily. This is the work of the Holy Spirit through the prayers, and support of God’s people from around the world and the commitment of the Native Missionaries living in these nations. Today 97 percent of the world's unreached people live in the 10/40 Window. In this part of the world, millions live with little or no chance of ever hearing the Gospel. The people who live in this part of this part of the world are characterized as the most Unreached. This is where most of the major religions have begun and today billions of people are Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims and Communists. Every day over
80,000 people die in Asia without ever hearing the name of Jesus in
their life. In India
over 500,000 villages have never heard the
Gospel nor there is any church or a missionary working among them.
Who
are the Native Missionaries? A native missionary is a full-time Gospel worker working in his own or a similar culture. Native missionaries have more access to the interior parts of a country where most of us are not allowed to travel. Native missionaries are cost effective since they live at the local standard, which is much lower than the standard in Western countries. Native missionaries are accountable to their local leader or pastor. Our staff closely monitors the effectiveness of the native missionary.
Why support Native Missionaries
? Often foreign missionaries are barred from long-term evangelism and church planting in restricted access nations like China, India, Vietnam and other parts of Asia. However, natives can travel freely within their own countries. Native missionaries have no language or cultural barriers. They don’t have to spend years learning the language and the customs of the people they will reach. They identify with their own people, so Christianity is not viewed as a foreign religion. Native missionaries are an effective living testimony. The people in the area where they live see the changes God has made in their lives. Supporting a native missionary is not expensive. Depending on the area, only US $50 - $ 100 will meet all of the monthly living expenses of one native missionary and his family in many countries. Many want to be full -time Gospel workers. At present we have many workers waiting to be supported. Most of them are trained to evangelize and plant churches. Others are assisting in their local congregations and are waiting for financial help to minister full time. Many are already ministering in faith, trusting the Lord to supply their needs. Do you sense the urgency of our Lord’s command to preach the Gospel? Every one cannot go but each one of us can do our part by praying and sending and supporting the missionaries and their work in the unreached nations.
