Arkansas UPG Prayer Page

There are over 80 Unreached People Groups represented in Arkansas.  And according to the IMB, many of those have groups that are also unengaged with the Gospel.  Praying for “a door of faith” to be opened among them (Acts 14:27b) and for more laborers to be sent among them (Luke 10:2) is the first step of engagement. Any Southern Baptist Association or Church, mission group, Sunday School class, youth group, or other group may adopt one of the people groups featured below. We are asking you to make a long-term prayer commitment.
