The Present Situation in early 2011 We praise the God and Father of Messiah Jesus for the great advances of the gospel in India. However, 90% of Jesus followers in India still come from 10% of its ethnies. Thus, many Indians ethnies remain neglected. Let us do our research, report to the churches, and have beg God to penetrate more ethnies.

Slide 12

Make Use of Statistics to Elicit prayer in churches for neglected ethnies. Recruit volunteers for church planting. Discover ethnies that are becoming responsive. Send personnel to responsive regions. Ensure that all ethnies in a region receive the gospel and get churches. Coordinate efforts with many other ministries. Test methods, strategies and materials. Give an account to the Lord and to partners.

Recommendations Choose the growth and multiplication indicators that you deem important. Provide workers at every level with pre-made report forms that are easy to fill in. Make reporting a part of mentoring that seeks to make workers successful. Constantly cultivate relations of love and trust that encourage honest reporting. Compile results and keep all levels of workers informed on what God is doing. Share statistics with regional and national church multiplication mapping services.
