Who Are the Unreached?

Did you know that more than 40% of the people in the world are unreached with the gospel of Jesus Christ, and there is no indigenous community of believers living within their people group to evangelize them? Most of them live in countries opposed to christian missions.

AIM believes that the most effective way to reach these people is to support native ministries who have a God-given vision and burden to win their own people to Christ. The fewer barriers the gospel must cross, the more effective the message.

We also believe in the effectiveness of raising up abandoned and neglected children; providing food, clothing, education, and the gospel to those who will become the next generation of leaders, and will go back out into their communities with the gospel.

While visiting countries, AIM seeks out effective indigenous ministries already at work in their communities. Before committing any assistance, AIM checks to see that it is biblically sound, financially accountable, evangelistic, and has a good testimony in their community. We also want to make sure that it is truly indigenous, and not attached to any foreign organization.

Whenever AIM receives any designated contributions, 100% of that gift is distributed for the purpose requested. No portion of that donation is used for personal expenses incurred on behalf of AIM's work. Because of that, we appreciate any donations toward the general fund.

Starting today, we will begin providing you with a specific unreached people group to pray for each week. Some of these may have a small Christian witness, but many have no witness at all. This weeks people group is the Abdul.
