The Need in India

According to JoshuaProject.net, India has a population of over 1.4 billion. Of this number, 95.3% are unreached with the good news. Out of 2,272 people groups, 2,041 remain unreached. As a result, there is an urgent need to reach unreached people groups in India and support local ministry training as a long-term, sustainable solution.

Given this reality, one of the most vital ways to respond is through the training of young men and women for ministry. In particular, training nationals is key to ensuring sustainable local efforts. These individuals already understand the language, culture, and daily challenges of their communities. Therefore, they are uniquely equipped to offer hope and guidance in respectful, meaningful ways.

This is where Grace Bible College plays a crucial role. Located in central India, GBC is committed to equipping students with a biblical foundation and practical leadership tools. The college also focuses on developing spiritual maturity. These qualities prepare students to serve in difficult and often restricted areas. By focusing on local ministry training, the college strengthens communities among unreached people groups in India.

Moreover, in regions where open evangelism is not permitted, local leadership becomes essential. These leaders can build trust through compassion, service, and consistent presence. Their influence opens doors where traditional outreach may not be allowed.
