Stories of Transformation through Christ!

More than one million villages still have not heard the Gospel. You can help us reach as many as possible. People, just like these, are waiting to be transformed by Christ.

Every village that is reached results in amazing stories of transformation through the power of Jesus Christ. These are real stories of real people.  

 

Prayer is at the very heart of all we do for the Lord. Each year, we invite Reach A Village’s ministry partners to share their specific prayer requests with us. We then compile those requests into our annual Prayer Calendar and invite you to stand with us in prayer.

Below you’ll find the link to our March and April 2026 Prayer Calendar. Each day features a focused request from one of our partners around the world. We will also share these daily prayer points on our Facebook page so you can easily follow along.

If there is a way we can be praying for you, we would be honored to do so. Please...

Rytis agreed to meet with Lukné. Within an hour, he arrived at her home.

More than expected

As Rytis began talking with Lukné, he learned that she had been searching online for answers to her struggles. That day, as they sat together in Lukné’s home, she began to share with Rytis more about her...

In 2000, Svetla (middle) of Bulgaria middle began hosting a Bible study group in her home. God was changing the lives of her and her family, and she became a faithful follower of Jesus. Radoslav (right), one ministry partner, recalls with great fondness those years of leading those Bible studies for her and her neighbors.

Five years later, Svetla and her family experienced a tragedy in their lives. Her son was in a serious accident, and his close friend died at the scene. “We were all deeply wounded by this loss,” she says. “My son fell into a long-term depression, and he still has not...
