"But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name."

John 1:12

Oh how the heart of the Lord cries out to His children who haven't heard the Gospel! Oh how few of us Christians try to reach them! They need to hear to good news. Who would go? Here I am, send me...

  • Of the 16,708 people groups by country, 6,894 are still considered unreached.
  • 9,814 people groups by country are not considered unreached, totaling 3,995,384,000 individuals, or about 59% of the world's population.
  • Of the 16,708 total people groups, 6,894 are identified as unreached using Joshua Project criteria, totaling 2,829,282,000 individuals. Of these 6,894 groups, 5,873 are in 10/40 Window countries. That means 85% of all unreached people groups are in the 10/40 Window.
  • 1,021 of the unreached groups are NOT in the 10/40 Window, totaling 80,109,000 individuals. These groups are relatively accessible to the Gospel.
  • Of the 6,894 Unreached people groups, about 3,520 (51%) are small groups under 10,000 in population (or population unknown) and all these groups total less than 8,000,000 individuals. Of the remaining 3,374 unreached groups, about 1,304 are under 50,000 in population. That leaves 2,070 Unreached groups 50,000 and over in population. A vibrant church in a large group may take the gospel to a number of smaller satellite people groups that have ethnic similarities.



There are many prodigal sons
On our city streets they run
Searching for shelter
There are homes broken down
People's hopes have fallen to the ground
From failures

This is an emergency!

There are tears from the saints
For the lost and unsaved
We're crying for them come back home
We're crying for them come back home
And all your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Father, we will lead them home

There are schools full of hatred
Even churches have forsaken
Love and mercy
May we see this generation
In it's state of desperation
For Your glory

This is an emergency!

Sinner, reach out your hands!
Children in Christ you stand!
Sinner, reach out your hands!
Children in Christ you stand!

And all Your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Father, we will lead them home
