We give God the Glory for the upcoming opportunity to raise a strong united body of Jesus followers to pray and reach those living in South Asia. This is a timely and key event for those leading churches and prayer groups, those who love to pray for their friends and neighbours and those who God is calling to mobilise prayer for the Great Commission across this region.
The Ethne Prayer Team is a network that partners with anyone who shares the same passion to see every person have the opportunity to hear and understand the life changing message of Jesus Christ and to choose to follow Him as His disciple. The Ethne Prayer team is a relational community which catalyses and connects prayer strategists to pray and mobilise the body of Christ to see God's Kingdom preached and demonstrated amongst all people groups particularly among the least reached peoples and places.

Whenever I am asked by someone where to start in praying for the nations and those who have little access to the know Jesus. I encourage prayer for South Asia. I don’t need to tell any of you reading this that the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. So we pray to the Lord of the Harvest to send out labourers into the harvest field. South Asia has 53% of the world’s unreached people groups. 4034 distinct ethnic linguistic groups which currently don’t have access to the Gospel. https://joshuaproject.net/global/regions The Gathering in Chennai during July 18-21 is a call to the body of Christ to stand together, united to change the current status quo, to celebrate where God is at work doing across S Asia, and to seek God together for the harvest of people who are longing to be Jesus disciples and a part of God’s family.
