In the Previous blog article, I shared about the 352 Unreached People Groups in the Western Hemisphere.  200 of these people groups are currently listed as Unengaged by the database at Peoplegroups.org.  That means that there is no current evangelical outreach to these 200 groups. But the stat that hit me the hardest was the state of the UUPG problem in the United States.  Currently there are 29 Native American Indigenous Unreached People Groups. And to my amazement 21 of these Peoples are UNENGAGED as of this writing. I shared this information at one of our key partner churches last Sunday.  I could tell from the response during the message, as well as conversations I have had since then, that many people were amazed to find out that there are so many UUPGs in our own home nation.  It turns out that you don't even need a passport to reach a UUPG! As we have drilled down further in our research, we find that these tribes are living in: Texas Colorado Il...

According to Peoplegroups.org, as I write this post in June of 2018, there are still 352 Indigenous Unreached People Groups in the Western Hemisphere.  And 200 of them are still Unengaged! What do these terms mean? Unreached People Group (UPG):  A people group or tribe that has less than 2 percent evangelical population.  The truth is that studies show us that unless 10 percent of a group is adherent to something, the full group (100 percent) cannot be fully influenced....so actually 10 percent is a more realistic number ..... but the agreed standard for "reached with the gospel" for a tribe has been 2 percent for many years.  So a UPG is a group with less than 2 percent response to the gospel....and sometimes it is 0 percent! Unengaged UPG:  This is a UPG that is not only unreached (less than 2 percent evangelical) but in fact (at least currently) is without any evangelical missionary outreach whatsoever. Indigenous:  This means we are talking abou...

A history of CPM/DMM in the INSTAR initiative in Latin America and the latest Quarterly Reports from the INSTAR initiative. These reports show continued exponential multiplication! Every 3 months Strategy Coordinator Keith Travis compiles a tracking report of the Disciple Making Movement in Latin America that WME has been facilitating for the last 10 years.   This report is based on Data that is accumulated by the Honduran Catalytic team of leaders that we call the “Vision Team”. These seven men and their wives are giving their lives to see the gospel become available to all people in their nation, and throughout Greater Latin America.   While this report is largely from Honduras, there are also groups and churches in the report from Nicaragua, Guatemala, Ecuador and Argentina.   In addition to Keith, Randy Travis is serving as the Training Coordinator for INSTAR.   Other national leaders and missionaries are focused on South America.   But what doe...
