Global Pipeline is our strategy for bringing the Gospel to unreached people groups in Northern India while also reaching out to unreached people groups in the Sacramento region.
Think about these statistics:
- There are more than 600 unreached people groups with a population of over 100,000 in the world today. These are "tribes" of people with no viable Christian community among them.
- About 300 of those unreached people groups are in the nation of India.
- Only about 1/2 of 1% of funds given to evangelical churches in the US go to these unreached people groups.
- Less than 10% of missionaries currently on the field are working among unreached people groups.
Our primary mission focus as a church is to change these statistics by establishing a church-based team in Northern India. Part of our plan includes:
- The Global Pipeline Internship: This is a 6-month commitment of individuals in our church family to an intense program of scripture study, spiritual disciplines, local outreach to unreached people, and missions training. Interns must dedicate about 10-14 hours per week to the program and can be "Goers" (future missionaries) or "Senders" (active supporters of missionaries).
- A Church-Based Team: A family from our church have recently moved to "Kite City" in Northern India to live among the unreached people of the region. As a church family we are committed to supporting them as our hands extended to that part of the world. We are excited that two other couples from like-minded churches are planning on joining the team in Kite City later this year. And we pray that other individuals from First Cov will also answer the call to move there and help meet the great needs of people in Kite City. Our goal is to see a church-planting movement established among the unreached people there that will be led by their own people under the power of the Holy Spirit.
