2,222 out of 6,838

Recently, I found something out that staggered my mind. 

• There are 6,838 unreached* people groups in the world which represents 2.74 billion people in this world.  
• In one South Asian country alone, there are 2,222 unreached people groups (32% of all unreached people groups) representing 1.1 billion people (40% of all people who are unreached in the world) who don't know the truth about Jesus Christ

*"Unreached" means that the indigenous people do not have enough people or resources to help their own people hear and discover Jesus Christ.

Last night I went out with my church to walk around downtown to pray for, care for, and give sandwiches to those in need or for those who asked us to.  It was an amazing time - here are my thoughts on the night:

• I found it hilarious that people thought we were on a pub crawl because we all wore the same t-shirt that said Deep Water (our church name) on the front and "Ask us how we can pray for you" on the back.  It started up a great conversation.  It was a great way to redeem the we all wear the same t-shirt phenomena.
• Being out there creates opportunities to share Christ.  As we prayed for people, listened to people's stories, they reciprocated by asking questions on why we are doing this.  
• Doing it for one night reminded me that this shouldn't be a once a week thing, but a lifestyle to love and care for people with the love of Christ
• I can't love people without the love of Christ because I know that on my own, it will become a duty and something I may resent to do day in and day out
• The more people, the better!  

Definitely will do it again.  You want to join me?
