Mission
Unknown nations is a christian nonprofit focused on reaching the unreached in areas that are less than 2% christian. These are the most zero-access, barrier ridden, spoken word reliant people groups on the planet. This is achieved through our three strategic initiatives of creating providing access to the word of god, targeted humanitarian projects and discipleship training.
Programs
3 programs
Discipleship training. Discipleship centers and outposts have been established to train the most promising local leaders to teach, establish listening groups and start an indigenous church planting movement. This discipleship training can range from a 1 or 2 day training session to a multi-year program for youth.
Humanitarian aid. Very often the unreached areas are comprised of people living at a subsistence level. When a natural disaster occurs (fire, flood, drought, etc.), or displacement due to government or group persecution, it provides an opportunity to be the hands and feet of jesus through provision of humanitarian aid. While there we are able to demonstrate and teach about the love of christ.
Domestic education - teaching about the great commssion and the need for jesus in many parts of the world
