About This Project
Globalization is at the heart of IMB strategy, encouraging and equipping partners worldwide to send their own missionaries to the unreached. This globalization strategy is making great strides in the Philippines. Your gift will help IMB personnel and “B” tribal missionaries equip other tribal churches to reach some of the last remaining UPGs in Southeast Asia!
Once fierce headhunters, outsiders had never survived contact with the “B” tribe. But God worked in miraculous ways among them. Missionaries shared the gospel with them; it penetrated the darkness, and the “B” tribal church was born. Years later, IMB missionaries mobilized the “B” tribal church to send their own missionaries to other unreached tribal groups.
These 21 tribal missionaries have proved incredibly effective, connecting at a deep, heart level with unreached tribes. As their sending churches caught a vision for the Great Commission, “B” churches were revived and multiplied. Your gift will enable IMB workers to continue mobilizing and equipping “B” tribal churches and the missionaries they send and will also provide audio Bibles for them to use in reaching oral peoples.
Your partnership will replicate this powerful paradigm with other tribal groups — tribals reaching tribals! This model is the essence of globalization: formerly unreached peoples taking the gospel to those who are still unreached.
In the next five years, a globalization goal of all IMB workers is to mobilize 500 local believers to become global missionary partners serving on IMB teams.
