In the South Asian countries of India and Bangladesh, there are more Muslims than in the Middle East and the entire continent of Africa combined.
This region has some of the world’s largest concentrations of unengaged Muslim people groups that have no effective long-term Gospel witness in their midst.
With its sprawling megacities, South Asia is teeming with people. One field worker in a South Asian city describes how she’d have “the doorbell ringing twenty times a day. I felt so surrounded by humanity. People and relationships are everything there. The clock stops for people. Time is irrelevant and inconsequential if you’re with a friend. And you’re always with a friend.”
Until they meet a messenger of the Gospel, many Muslims will never have a chance to hear about a relationship with the One who really stops time: Jesus Christ.
- Pray for Frontiers teams in South Asia, and ask God to send more laborers and to equip them for fruitful ministry.
- Pray for new workers to quickly learn the language and culture.
- Pray for the Lord to send new teams to strategic cities throughout South Asia that still have no workers bringing Muslims the message of Jesus Christ.
