"The witness of the Frontiers workers is a source of inspiration and encouragement.

"If you really want to learn to lean on God and see His mighty power displayed across cultural barriers while having a ridiculous amount of fun, you should probably sign up [for a short-term trip]!"
"God is proving to be the constant that He is in the world. It is encouraging to hear how He is moving in the Muslim world."
- a Frontiers financial partner
"The exposure you get through short-term service is incredible. To throw oneself into a world ignorantly is sometimes the wisest thing you can do."
"As donors, we are excited by the strategic impact Frontiers is having in fulfilling the Great Commission among Muslims, and we want a greater sense of ownership."
"Frontiers' ministry to people that live in 'closed' countries excites me! Knowing that they have NGOs [nonprofits] trained and dedicated to reach these people makes Frontiers quite valuable."
- a Frontiers financial partner
"Because Frontiers has a proven track record of engaging the Muslim world with integrity and evangelical effectiveness, we are joyous partners in prayer and sharing of finances."
"Frontiers has our enthusiastic support (prayer and finances) for taking the Good News to Muslims. We are so thankful for the many God is calling to go and who are saying, 'Yes!'"

Jhojha People Group

The Jhojha live in north central India, close to the capital of Delhi and near the Bhatiara and Bhatia peoples. This people group is mostly concentrated in the northwestern region of the state of Uttar Pradesh.

For almost 600 years, much of India was ruled by Muslim dynasties, many of them based in the area where the Jhojha people now live. Uttar Pradesh was also the center of the Mughal Empire, one of the most well-known Muslim dynasties in India’s history ruling the nation for over 200 years.

Islam is now the largest minority religion in India, with a large percentage of Muslims concentrated in the northern part of the country. It is estimated that Muslims comprise 13 to 20 percent of India’s total population - more than 138 million people - and there are more Muslims in Uttar Pradesh than in any other state in India.

  • Prayer Points
