Central Asia has suffered immensely from a long history of endless warfare. 800,000 people have lost their lives to war while 160,000 have been handicapped and 700,000 have been forced to leave their homes and become refugees of war. Upwards of forty million land mines still litter the countryside and several decades are estimated before homes, schools and farms will fully be recovered.

There are more than 48,000 Hindu templates in Central Asia, but not one church stands as of yet. The spiritual scars of war, however, are more evident than even the physical ones. Despite the heat and fear of persecution, mission teams are able to connect with many students by holding English classes at the local university. Central Asia has known oppression for too long and is in dire need of helping through Jesus Christ.
