Adopt a Frontier People Group

Reach the Unreached

Join the global movement to bring the gospel to people groups with little to no access to Jesus Christ through prayer, advocacy, and strategic partnership.

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.
