When the world's largest Christian church is in Korea and the world's largest
Buddhist temple is in Los Angeles, we must reconsider our missionary priorities.
Help us help the missionaries reaching out to America's diverse groups.

training.

There are 38 million people in the world who are blind or severely visually

through the National Resource Center for the Blind.

Fellowship are reaching out to the third most-used language group living in

Islam is the fastest growing major religion in the world and one of the fastest
growing in the United States. There are an estimated 6 million adherents of
this incredibly aggressive religion in America and though wording conditions
are sometimes dangerous, our missionaries and the Center for Ministries to
Muslims are making a difference.

Alaska has 200 Native communities scattered over a geographic area twice the
size of the state of Texas. The logistics alone of reaching these communities
is phenomenal. Intercultural missionaries are committed to the task despite

are training up new pastors, missionaries and lay workers to help meet the
need.
