Update: We've almost met the match!

Did you know that there is a great gap in the world of Christian missions?

Right now there are 2.7 billion people—nearly a third of the earth's population—that have little or no meaningful access to the gospel. Leading missions experts also say that, of all the foreign missionaries serving around the globe, only one out of every 10 is actually ministering among these 2.7 billion unreached people. Most are serving people groups that already have access to the gospel.

Our commitment at Pioneers is to step into this gap. Our missionaries are faithfully going out to the least reached corners of the earth, taking the gospel to individuals like the young Muslim man who recently wrote us saying, "I haven't found the answers to my problems in my country or my religion. No one seems to care. Please help me find hope…"

As Pioneers missionaries continue to persevere abroad, we have secured a $475,000 matching gift to for our 2012 "Close the Gap" Campaign. This initiative will help us provide greater security for missionaries in some of the most dangerous and needy corners of the earth. It will also fund training programs that our missionaries are requesting as they seek to grow as church planters, and it will help us send more workers to join the missionary teams we already have in the field.

Would you please consider financially investing in this work? Every dollar given will be doubled through the matching opportunity!

To date, we have raised 70% of the $475,000 match for this campaign.
