ASIA
Asia
, the largest of earth's seven continents, is largely
unevangelized. With its outlying islands, it covers an estimated
44,936,000 sq. Km. (17,350,000 sq. Mi.) or about one-third of the
world's total land area. Its people account for three-fifths of
the world's total population. It is a vast mission field of over 3
Billion people! They are peoples of different ethnic, language and
cultural backgrounds making it the most challenging place on earth
for doing mission work. In the next decade another half billion
people will be added to its population. In the early 1990's Asia
had 3.2 billion people....God has opened the doors of
India

Church in every part of
Asia
