REACH A VILLAGE

At Reach A Village, our inspiration comes from the words of Jesus in Mark 1:38, �Let us go somewhere else � to the nearby villages � so I can preach there also. That is why I have come.� Instead of remaining in places that had already received the Gospel message, Christ intentionally chose to go and preach in unreached villages so that more people would come to faith in Him. Our ultimate goal is to finish the mission Jesus gave His disciples � to take the Good News to the ends of the earth so that every person in every village has the opportunity to have a relationship with Him.

In our world today, more than 3 billion people in over 1.7 million villages still have not been reached with the Gospel. Having served as a missionary himself for many years, Robert Craft had noticed that missionary efforts are often concentrated on cities, while small villages in rural areas are neglected. He saw a pressing need to go beyond the urban areas and take the Gospel to poor farming villages and isolated places that are still waiting to hear about Jesus. Craft recognized that mobilizing local believers to reach their own countries for Christ is the most efficient and cost-effective way to take the Gospel to these people.
In 2012, Craft founded Reach A Village to empower local Christians by providing training in proven methods, culturally appropriate study materials, and Scriptures in the local language to reach their people for Christ, nurture new believers through Bible study, and start churches in unreached villages. Reach A Village works with a vast international network of ministry partners, local Christian leaders and believers across Southeast Asia, Eurasia, China and parts of Africa.

We are called by God to train and equip local believers, enabling them to reach the unreached and bring them into fellowship with Jesus Christ and His Church, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
