Eurasia

At a Glance

  • Depressed economies and poor infrastructure
  • Oppressive governments that repress evangelical Christianity
  • Alcoholism
  • Vast distances between rural communities
  • Revivals and growing evangelical populations
  • Unreached people groups: 402

In most countries in the difficult mission field of Eurasia, evangelical believers comprise less than 1 percent of the population. Indigenous missionaries travel far distances in these countries to bring the message of Christ to isolated, unreached people groups. They face political, cultural, and religious ideologies that are closed and hostile to the gospel message. Through compassionate outreach to children and poor, marginalized people, missionaries are making inroads for the gospel.

Ministry Highlight

A ministry in Uzbekistan shared the gospel with over 2,600 people and started 18 new churches last year. They are reaching the Turkmen people, who are one of the world’s least-reached people groups, in an area near the border of Turkmenistan. “This area is one of the most remote corners of the country,” the leader said. “A desert, both naturally and spiritually.” There are now about 30 new believers in this area and even more seekers.

How You Can Make a Difference

Thanks to dedicated indigenous missionaries, the gospel is taking root among the ethnic minorities in Eurasia, but they need help to reach the remote communities where these minorities live to disciple and train them in God’s Word. You can supply them with vital resources for transportation and living expenses, along with Bibles and training materials.

From the Mission Field in Eurasia

An Answered Prayer in Eurasia
When missionaries arrived in the town where they planned to stay overnight and share the gospel among the people, they did not want to stay in a hotel. Instead, they hoped to stay with a local resident. The problem, however, was that they knew no one there. “Lord, show us a man of peace,” prayed Marat*, the ministry leader, as they drove through the city. “Someone who will open the doors of his home and be ready to hear the Good News.” The missionaries then went to a bank to exchange money into the local currency. While Marat waited in the car, a stranger suddenly approached. The two men exchanged greetings, and the stranger, whose name was Aldiyar*, said to Marat, “Would you like to stay at my house?” Marat could not help but smile. God had answered his prayer.

Shine the Light of Christ’s Hope in Eurasia
A woman previously involved in the occult and who had once attempted suicide was invited to a local ministry’s church. She was so surprised by the warmth and welcome she experienced that she continued to come every Sunday. Soon, she decided to follow Jesus and was baptized. Now, her husband comes with her, and another believer regularly disciples her. You can support evangelism and discipleship such as this with a donation of any amount. Pray for troubled hearts to turn to Christ.

Come Alongside Persecuted Believers in Eurasia
After a local missionary purchased cows and planted a garden to help support himself, his neighbors tried to cut him out of the local water supply. Other Christian workers helped him by feeding his cows. “There are always persecuted who have need for everything,” the ministry leader said. Your donation of $35 or more will provide aid to believers in the region who are facing difficult trials. Pray the Lord will protect them.
