Frontier People Groups
“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” – Luke 15:19
The red dots in the map above show the locations of only some of the 408 million souls living in over 389 mostly “People Groups” across the 17+ countries of the Middle East & North Africa region.
More than 174 million of these lost souls live where there is virtually a total lack of Christians, churches, or Bibles. They are living in 243 “Frontier People Groups.”
People living in “Frontier People Groups” have less than a 1/1,000 chance of ever hearing the GOOD NEWS of our LORD JESUS CHRIST in their lifetime UNLESS people of faith like us take action to change the status quo!
Unreached People Groups (UPGs)
“Do not say, ‘It’s still four months until harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest.” – John 4:35
About 234 million other lost souls live in the Middle East and North Africa where there are some Christians, churches, and/or Bibles. They are living in 146 “Unreached People Groups.”
​
An “Unreached People Group” is a people group with the 3 following characteristics:​
1
Less than or equal to 2% of the population who call themselves Evangelical Christian, AND
2
Less than 5% total who call themselves Christian, but not Evangelical Christian, AND
3
No indigenous community of believing Christians with adequate numbers and resources to evangelize this people group without assistance.
While many of our training graduates will produce films to expand the Church among the UPG Harvest Field, it will require our special focus to inspire and equip Frontier Filmmakers to bring the Gospel to the people living in these “Frontier People Groups” in order for them to be able to receive the free gift of salvation and new life through the Gospel of Jesus Christ our LORD and Savior.
​
25% of the people living in our world today live in Frontier People Groups.
​
Only 1% of the Gospel workers are actively working to reach those living in Frontier People Groups.
​
We can reach them!
