Lostness
is growing
every day.

We will not ignore it. We won’t be silent. We won’t stand still. We will reach the nations, no matter the cost.

Over the next five years, we’re committed to find and know every people group on earth in pursuit of the Revelation 7:9 vision.

Our Work

59% of the world today is considered unreached — meaning Jesus is largely unknown among 4.6 billion people.

Today, hundreds of thousands of people will die without the hope of Jesus. The IMB exists to address this problem, the world’s greatest problem — lostness. We send missionaries to the nations to share the good news of Jesus.

We go to people

in
cities
in
hard-to-reach places
who are
dispersed and displaced
