A Central Asian Mission

Thank you to all of you who participated in our gatherings in September with Masha. We were so blessed to travel around and meet new people. Thank you too for the winter accessories that were donated for the Fountain of Life homeless shelter in Bishkek. Thanks in part to your generosity we were able to take two large suitcases with us when we visited the shelter  in October.  If you would like to make a financial gift to either Masha and her family or the Fountain of life please see our giving page.


People International Canada is making a difference in the everyday lives of Central Asians, both believers and those who have yet to know Jesus as Lord.

Evangelism

We are committed and passionate about sharing the good news of the gospel through presenting Jesus Christ in a culturally sensitive manner. This involves learning Central Asian languages and re-telling the biblical narrative in creative ways.

Church Planting

PI’s vision is to see churches grow in every community. We support national-led church planting, and as needed, we pioneer new churches.

Discipleship & Leadership Development

Central Asia has a small but vibrant Church that is growing in the hostile environment of persecution. We are involved in supporting the Central Asian Church by training leaders to teach from the Bible and develop Biblical leadership patterns, as well as developing areas of pastoral care and developing Christian character.

Bible Translation

People International workers are involved in translation teams throughout Central Asia, ensuring that the Bible is available in every language.

Media

PI is committed to using various forms of media to reach local people. The gospel is being presented through various forms of technology and multimedia (such as Satellite TV, mobile apps, and short films). 

Meeting Human Needs

We carry the biblical mandate to serve the poor and vulnerable. We help create employment and have provided emergency relief to refugees. 

Get Involved

Does knowing that Central Asia is one of the largest unreached regions in the world overwhelm you or challenge you to action?

There is a great need for prayer, resources and Christian workers. You can get involved with People International through prayer, financial support, or serving.

I want to participate in what God is doing in Central Asia!

Current Giving Opportunities

Youth Team 2024 Trip


We will be sending 7 young adults to work with the youth at our biannual staff conference. These young people are committed to fundraise or personally pay their way to the conference to bless our precious teens commonly known as Third Culture Kids (TCKs). The total cost of the team’s expenses are around $20,000.


Scholarship Fund

This is a special fund that we use to help finance unexpected needs of our overseas workers like attending training or retreats. This year we have already been able to send two of our workers and their family to retreats for much needed rest and networking. (2024 Goal: $2000)


General Fund

This is used to fund a variety of needs. One of the exciting new initiatives for our office is a part-time mobilizer who will help by going out and about in person to schools, churches and conferences to share about the opportunity for service in Central Asia. Your gift will enable us to expand the hours of this role. (2024 Goal: $500/monthly)
