A massive number of migrants, students, refugees, and business people have moved to Europe from all parts of the world. Even smaller cities and towns across Europe are home to a multitude of diverse groups from least reached nations. About 15 million of these are Muslims from many different ethnic backgrounds.

For example, almost 5 million Muslims, Hindus, and Sikhs from South Asia now reside in Europe and Britain, introducing their rich culture into the fabric of European society. They have established their communities and built their mosques and temples. While some see this as a reason for fear, others see it as an opportunity for the church to reach out with the love of Jesus.

Ethne Europe wants to challenge you not only to intercede for the least reached peoples in Europe but also to recruit more workers for Europe from Latin America. In addition, please pray for the Church in Europe to experience renewal and take up the challenge of bringing the gospel to the least-reached peoples on their doorstep and to the ends of the earth.
