West Africa is full of spiritual momentum and opportunity, alongside real challenges that require wisdom and perseverance. While Christianity is growing, many unreached communities remain hard to access due to poverty, instability, and division in the Church. We give thanks for the ways God is expanding collaboration training and coaching for leaders who are stepping into greater unity for gospel breakthroughs.

Pray for leaders to work together in humility and strength for exponential Kingdom impact.

Pitam first heard the gospel on a radio in a fishing village in West Bengal, where most people worshiped the Hindu goddess Kali. Today, he co-leads a network that has planted 2,500+ churches across South Asia and is reaching over 230 unreached people groups. God is moving in powerful ways in some of the world’s hardest places through collaboration.

But opportunities and needs are growing faster and farther than we can physically go. That's why we are building a secure online Learning Management System - so leaders in places like West Bengal and beyond can access collaboration training and coaching that helps form healthy, multiplying networks among the unreached.

We are raising $75,000 to launch this platform. Right now, every first-time gift is being matched 1:1.

Your donation is a long-term investment in expanding Kingdom collaboration in some of the hardest places in the world.

Our global team is dedicating June 9 as a day of prayer and fasting. Would you join us?

One specific request: Pray for upcoming Synergy Catalyst Program launches in East Asia, South Asia, and West Africa, some of which will be in highly persecuted contexts.

Ask God to provide qualified translators and facilitators, prepare the hearts of participating leaders, and give wisdom and discernment in every step.

Pray for protection in places where ministry is dangerous or restricted, and for deep, meaningful engagement that strengthens collaboration and advances Great Commission breakthroughs across the region.

Also pray that this day of prayer and fasting would bring wisdom and encouragement to our team. Pray for God to grow our faith as we step into Kingdom opportunities and plan for long-term growth.

Thank you for lifting up our ministry!

“This is a crucial time for the Church, and this training is essential for fulfilling the Great Commission. It was deeply encouraging and strengthened me with practical tools for evangelism and discipleship. I will train others so the impact multiplies.” [Recent Network Journey participant in a persecuted country]

Thank you for praying and giving toward Kingdom breakthroughs in some of the world’s hardest places. We are grateful to see God at work through the power of collaborative networks.

“The problem of the North Africa Church is not persecution, imprisonment, or threat - but division. In places where the enemy cannot stop the gospel through fear, he attempts to slow it down through disunity, suspicion, and fragmentation.”

Wise and convicting insight from a room of pastors who have experienced imprisonment, miraculous escapes, and intense state surveillance. In much of North Africa, converting from Islam or sharing your faith can carry the threat of long-term imprisonment or even death.

We are grateful for the opportunity to continue connecting with and equipping these faithful leaders. Pray for believers across North Africa to remain bold, united, and empowered by the Holy Spirit as they faithfully proclaim the gospel.

"I came into the meeting expecting God’s presence and the leading of the Holy Spirit - and that is exactly what happened. The room broke into two hours of weeping, crying out to God, and deep repentance. I stood in awe, simply watching the Holy Spirit convict, empower, embolden, and refresh His servants.

These leaders left with a renewed sense of calling to return to their nations as disciple-makers, even at great personal cost. Before my eyes, I witnessed the birth of a Great Commission network that I believe will bring lasting impact to these nations."

What a powerful reflection from our West Africa Regional Director, Sam Dunya. God is moving mightily through collaboration around the globe.

Thank you for praying and giving as we continue to equip leaders to work together to reach the world’s most unreached people and places.

Tonight marks the beginning of Eid al-Adha, a major three-day observance for Muslim communities around the world. It remembers the story of Ibrahim (Abraham) and his trust in God, often marked by prayer, family time, and generosity toward those in need.

As Eid begins, join us in prayer for Muslim communities across the regions where we serve. Pray for peace in homes, joy in gatherings, and moments of honest spiritual searching. Pray that those seeking God would encounter His love in real and personal ways.

Pray also for Christian leaders serving in difficult contexts. Ask for strength, wisdom, and endurance, and for their lives to reflect the Kingdom with courage and faithfulness.

Today is the International Day for the Unreached.

3.4 billion people still have little to no access to the gospel. Many have never heard the name of Jesus, met a Christian, or seen a church in their community.

Pray with us:
For leaders serving in hard places around the world
For more workers to go to the least-reached communities
For unity across the global Church to help bring gospel access to the unreached

We’re grateful to stand alongside leaders working together to bring the hope of Jesus to those who have never heard.

VisionSynergy recently celebrated the graduation of our Telugu-language Synergy Catalyst Program cohort in India! Over 18 months, these leaders built trust across ministries, learned how to collaborate more effectively, and developed shared strategies for Kingdom breakthroughs in places with little or no access to the gospel.

Together, they are now focused on engaging 57 unreached people groups, including 5 frontier people groups - some of the least-reached communities in the world.

What encourages us most? These leaders know the challenge is too great to face alone. Great Commission breakthroughs happen when leaders trust one another, unite around a shared vision, and work together to reach communities that may otherwise never hear the gospel.

At a recent gathering focused on ministry in a closed context, a major security issue threatened the digital tools many leaders depend on. In the room, a participant with technology expertise stepped in and developed a solution that restored vital access - a concrete example of what happens when the right people come together.

Leaders who once worked in isolation are now sharing strategies, resources, and ideas, turning conversation into action and solving practical problems in real time.
