PEOPLE GROUP ADOPTION

World Map

A Commitment to the Unreached. A Call to Action.

People Group Adoption is more than a strategy—it’s a commitment. A commitment to prayer, advocacy, and partnership. It’s about seeing entire communities transformed by the gospel—especially in places where Jesus is not yet known. When you adopt a people group, you become part of a global effort to bring the good news to those with the least access to it.

The Goal

  • To reach the world’s least-reached people groups
  • To see multiplying disciples raised up
  • To help plant self-sustaining, indigenous churches in every people group.

The Reality

Right now, 3.48 billion people—across 4,477 people groups—have little to no access to the gospel.

That’s over 42% of the global population without a significant Christian presence to reach their own people without outside help.

Why It Matters

These are real people without:

  • Churches enough to reach the entire group without outside help
  • Complete Scripture in their language
  • Enough messengers to share Jesus

Vision for the People Group Adoption Clearinghouse

People Group Adoption is a prayer, advocacy, and partnership commitment to evangelize unreached people, engender multiplying disciples, and establish self-propagating indigenous Churches in every country.

There are 4,477 unreached people groups who have little to no gospel presence. That is over 42% of the world’s population without an indigenous disciple-making movement.
