Welcome to South Asia

The homeland of over a billion people, South Asia is a region of dazzling diversity, trailblazing adventure, and famously welcoming people who are always ready to make instant friends.

Sobre la región

South Asia is a heady fusion of colors, languages, and flavors.

Life in this region is dominated by timeless traditions. But as local economies push into the global marketplace, younger generations are pursuing modern aspirations.

Off the beaten track and beyond the urban crush of South Asian megacities, much of the land is patchworked with fields and agricultural communities. From its rural districts to urban contexts, South Asia is one of the poorest regions in the world, and many families live in profound poverty.

The region is home to fascinating landscapes like the Sundarbans, a river delta of sunken mangrove forests. This vast jungle holds the highest concentration of people on the planet.

Clima espiritual

With its dizzying array of spiritual traditions, South Asia has dozens of Muslim people groups with no believers and no one even trying to bring them the Good News.

But reaching Muslims in South Asia is becoming easier. Teams throughout the region welcome new workers to get on-the-field training before launching into strategic areas with no Gospel witness.

There are also fruitful opportunities to partner with national believers, some who trace their spiritual heritage to the early missionary efforts of the apostle Thomas.
