Offering

Raising Funds for the

written Word of God in

Central Asia

For centuries the Kazakhs did not hear about God’s love in Jesus.

Because of their

nomadic lifestyle,

it was hard to reach

out to them. For seventy years,

Kazakhstan was part of

the Soviet Union.

In 1990, there

were only about

ten Kazakh

believers in

Jesus!

An encouraging beginning…

• When Kazakhstan became independent

in 1991, the country opened the doors

to the rest of the world.

• Local Russian believers and Western

workers began sharing the Good News

openly with the Kazakhs.

• Individuals and whole families received

the Savior into their hearts and homes.

…and advance of the Gospel

God has richly blessed the work:

• Today there are about ten

thousand Kazakh believers

meeting in churches and small

house fellowships.

• Most of the ten million Kazakhs

still need to hear the Good News

for the first time.
