Africa
Helping the least reached people groups across Africa meet, know and follow Jesus


Sub-Saharan Africa is populated by 954 million people and is young, diverse and resource rich. Many Christians reside in Africa, but religions such as Islam are prominent and growing in popularity, and many thousands of people are steeped in animism, worshiping natural objects of phenomena. There are 900 least-reached people groups on the continent that know little or nothing about Jesus’ saving grace.
