1.3 Billion East Asian People Do Not Know Christ

God wants to change the numbers! Through prayer, you can have a vital part in His work among the East Asian Peoples.

Prayer for His Plan

"Prayer lays hold of God's plan and becomes the link between His will and its accomplishment on earth." Elisabeth Elliot

Prayer for the Year

Our EAPAG 2012 Prayer Calendar can inform and encourage you in your prayers for the East Asian Peoples all year long. You can download the calendar below and save it to your desktop, make a copy to tuck into your Bible, or order print copies directly from the IMB Resource Center 1-800-999-3113. Please also share this free resource with others in your mission group, prayer group or church.

Keep this guide handy and join thousands of others in lifting a specific request to the Father each day, and the same request four times in one month. You may also be interested in downloading a Chinese or Korean version of the Prayer Guide.

Prayer for a Day

Our East Asian Peoples Day of Prayer and Fasting is held on the second Monday of every month. Please join East Asian personnel, advocates and intercessors as we pray on behalf of an "unengaged" UPG or city. "Unengaged" means that to the best of our knowledge, there is no concerted Christian work underway to reach the city or UPG. As we pray, God will surely hear our prayers and answer. The profile will be posted on this page on the 1st of every month and you can choose to read it in English, Chinese simplified characters, Chinese traditional characters, or Korean.
