History
Reach All Nations is a non-profit organization registered under the Society Registration Act 21/1860 of India in 2001. The vision of the organization is based on the principles of life and teachings of Jesus Christ. The mission of the organization is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to the unreached and to show forth the love of Jesus in action. This is a nondenominational organization.
The organization was founded by Vijaya Sastry Meesala, an evangelist from Andhra Pradesh, south India. One of the main reasons for establishing this organization was the vision of 10/40 Window. The founder of RAN says, “The call to serve the Lord came to me in the form of a vision. In the vision I saw a hand come from above and quickly draw a world map in the sky and a small box within the world map. Then I heard a voice saying, ‘Jesus is coming soon; be prepared and make many prepared’; then the vision ended. At first I did not understand the meaning of the vision. But soon I realized that it was the vision of 10/40 window.” This vision now serves as the foundation for this organization.
Our desire is to “demonstrate and spread a passion for the supremacy of God in all things for the joy of all peoples through Jesus Christ" (Pastor. John Piper).
Vision
We aspire for a society that is spiritually, psychologically, physically, and socially transformed.
“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor" (Luke 4:18-19).
Mission
Reach All Nations seeks to reach the unreached nations with the good news of Jesus Christ through training women and men in the word of God, sending and supporting native missionaries, and planting churches. Central to mission is uplifting the poor, downtrodden, and weaker sections in society through educational and community development initiatives.
“Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation” (Mark 16:15)
We Reach Nations Through
The very essence of RAN is to proclaim the love of Christ through word and deed in this region. There are several ways through which we all can be involved in reaching the nations within the 10/40 Window.
Praying : RAN selects several unreached people groups, least evangelized cities, and countries, and prays that God’s hand will move in these places and among all these people groups.
Training: We train native missionaries with a special focus on reaching out to this region with the love of Jesus Christ.
Sending: After training “Change Makers,” we send these people to places where the Gospel has never been preached.
Supporting: We not only send our native missionaries to the mission field, but we continue to support them through prayers, encouragement, and support in whatever ways we can.
Church Planting: RAN, through the native missionaries plant churches to nurture and feed the word of God to the new believers.
