Fun-loving people abound in our culture. From the outside, people are friendly and love to laugh. But spiritual darkness dominates the hearts of 92% of the Arab population here who live without Christ. Like the desert around them, their faith has been without life. But recently, hope has started to sprout. New believers and churches have sprung out of the desert. Praise the Lord that life is returning! Because of consistent prayer and tilling the sand, our team has been able to start training national believers how to share the gospel, disciple others, and plant new churches.
Though there has been a Christian church here for centuries, it is dominated by attendees who depend on works and traditions for salvation. Now, God is also bringing change to the established church, creating a desire to know Christ and reach their neighbors through trainings and social media engagement.
We invite you to join us in this work by praying for the growing church body in the desert and giving to propel our ministries forward. Your gift will sponsor trainings with national believers, promote social media campaigns that share the gospel online, and reach the fields that are white for harvest in this dry place.

Gifts toward specific efforts show us what you are excited about. Occasionally,
we may redeploy gifts as we follow God's leading with urgent opportunities or changing international contexts.
Any gifts received beyond the goal go toward a similar project or our team support.
Praise the Lord that nationals from all over our country are wanting to know how to evangelize, disciple, and plant new churches in a reproducible manner. We now have new believers and established churches wanting to know even more. Your gift will enable these believers to attend a three-day intensive discipleship/evangelism/church planting training in a centralized location which will lead to the good news being spread nationwide!
Engage Arabs with gospel content through social media and websites. Your gift of $150 a month can buy ads that can potentially reach thousands of social media users and help pay for domain and web development costs. $100 per month helps with transportation for local believers to connect with online seekers face-to-face where real discipleship and sharing can take place.
Much of the population here is functionally illiterate. If they can read the Bible, it is in a form of high Arabic that is hard for them to understand. But most people have smartphones! Your gift will translate Bible stories in the local dialect onto a web-based application using video and audio formats. $200 per month will pay for studio time, web costs, and transportation for our national creation team to gather and develop these resources.
Thank you for praying and giving to enable us to reach people in this desert region for Christ. Your faithful intercession and generosity sponsor trainings with national believers, promote social media campaigns that share the gospel online, and reach the fields that are white for harvest in this dry place.
“Springs of living water” quench parched souls (Rev. 7:17). Recently, 71 believers from a major religion in our region gathered for the first time because of your gifts. There, they received training on baptism and communion. All rejoiced to watch as five couples were baptized, and everyone participated in the Lord’s Supper. People from three different cities shared how they came to know and accept Jesus as Lord. They were overjoyed to discover they were not alone. Instead, they found God is bringing many “cousins” to accept and follow Jesus as Lord. The families plan to visit each other and share the good news with their “Samaria” in nearby cities.
Join us in prayer.
Please pray for these 71 believers as they grow in relationships with the Lord and His people. Ask God to provide opportunities for additional training and discipleship.
Pray for the Lord’s wisdom as they share Christ in their families and communities.
Praise God with us for those baptized and just beginning their walk with Christ. Ask the Lord to bring mature believers near them to encourage and teach them.
Thank you for partnering with us to reach the nations for Christ. We appreciate your sacrificial giving and prayers as we labor together to solve the world’s greatest problem: lostness.
