March 2025 Prayer Calendar

Dear Prayer Partner,

Join me as we focus our prayers on the least-reached in North and Central (NC) India and Sri Lanka this March. 

In North Central India alone, over 750 million unreached people and more than 1,000 people groups are considered least-reached. So few of these know the love of Christ - a mere 0.2% follow the Christian faith. The largest state in the region, Uttar Pradesh, is approximately the same size as the U.S. state of Texas but has almost nine times as many people (269 million vs. 31 million). What a massive mission opportunity!

Sri Lanka, the island nation off the coast of Southern India, has had more exposure to Christianity, but still nearly half of its people groups are considered least-reached.

Birbal leads our team of seven Facilitators in this region. Jaival is our Admin Assistant and Data Manager, and Harbir leads the work of prayer. Together, they serve 75 groups of churches and 192 active training programs. Last year, 1,057 trained disciple-makers planted 546 new churches, with 3,446 new worshippers and disciples of Jesus. We praise God for this amazing fruit produced in very hard soil. 

It is not unusual for Jesus followers in this region to be cut off from family and community, to face beatings or prison simply because they are not part of the dominant religious system. Thank you for being a part of their support network. Your prayers are so needed in this area of the world that desperately longs to know the love of Christ.
