I partnered with The Upstream Collective to create a new resource for churches and families! 🎉
This FREE resource helps churches, families, and missionaries go deeper in their partnership for the gospel over the course of one-year. Every month families read a devotional, work on the activity of the month, and pray together for the people group and missionary family.
Whether you lead a children's ministry at church or are on the lookout for simple and creative ways to connect your kids to God's global plan for everyone to know and worship Him, this resource is for you!

Help your family embrace God’s love for the world by developing a habit of learning about other cultures. Read this story together to learn about and pray for the Acehnese (ah-chuh-NEEZ), an unreached people group in Indonesia.
Welcome to the island of Sumatra in Indonesia! Waves lick the feet of children playing with gray pebbles on the sandy beach. Pineapple trees with thick, crooked trunks line the shore. A red and blue fishing boat sways on the turquoise water. Men gather on the beach to sort large fish into big, plastic containers. Smoke from the grills of vendors roasting corn drifts into the nearby road.
The Acehnese live in the northwest part of Sumatra. As proud Muslims. they worship Allah and follow the teachings in their holy book, the Quran. Some Acehnese families mix Islamic beliefs with animism. They believe powerful spirits live in the forests, mouths of rivers, and banyan trees—spirits that could hurt them. Most Acehnese families have never met a Christian. The good news of Jesus hasn’t reached the Acehnese who live in the countryside along the coast. Do you see that girl playing in the creek while her mom does laundry?
