This will complete a prior project that is already bearing much
fruit. It will provide for 1 – 2 further pastor/leader training
intensive seminars in each of the following countries: Sri
Lanka, Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Pakistan. Approximately
1,000 pastors and leaders will be trained. These leaders are
starting churches among unreached villages and people groups

Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism are growing in Canada,
Europe, and the U.S. Additionally in the U.S. alone there now
are over 500,000 international students, the majority coming
from 10/40 nations. Most of our churches are ill equipped to
reach individuals from the most unreached nations at their
doorstep.
This project would provide training opportunities to equip
individuals and churches in reaching immigrants from the least
evangelized nations and international students in the West,
mentor interns from our Bible Schools and Institutes and help
train pre-­‐deployed missionaries being sent to unreached
peoples.
In 2012 we plan on beginning a church plant in one the most
populist and least evangelized cities in the world. The church
planter for this project has been preparing himself for over 5
years in language and cultural learning as well as establishing
contacts in this key city. Funds would help with the initial seed
money to rent a meeting place, buy equipment and for
publicity to draw individuals to the church. We wilL also be
planting a church in the capital city of Armenia, which is key to
impacting that nation as a higher and higher percentage of the
nation lives in the capital, especially youth seeking
employment.
One of our countries has already launched a church planting
effort into two cities that have no Foursquare churches and
are almost completely unreached by the Gospel. The funds
will go towards helping support two-­‐church planting teams in
their first year of pioneering this work.
