Oriya People Group
THE ORIYA PEOPLE GROUP HAS A POPULATION OF ABOUT 36,500. They live in East India, within the state of Odisha. Their primary religion is Hinduism, and the majority of them have never heard the message of the gospel. Our team has begun raising up new disciples among them. We’ve trained 5 new believers from the Mali, and with your help and the power of the Holy Spirit, those 5 can multiply exponentially! These 5 new disciples are eager to spread the gospel among the rest of their people group, and our team is eager to come alongside them as they work towards raising up disciples, churches and Christian leaders, until there are worshiping groups in all the villages, communities and localities of the Oriya people.
What’s it going to take?
There are Christian leaders being raised up among the Oriya people ready to engage the rest of their community with the message of the Gospel, but they need resources for travel, trainings, Bibles and other materials.
Total Cost = $36,000 ($12,000/yr for 3 years)

Our Strategy
e3 Partners uses a strategy known as 4 Fields. It follows the examples set by Jesus and Paul throughout the Gospels and Acts of sharing the gospel, discipling believers, starting churches and building up more leaders.
Training Roll-Out
There are 3 phases we go through to spread the gospel throughout an unreached people group (UPG).
- Phase 1: Gospel Conversations Training and Harvesting
- Phase 2: 4 Fields Intensive Trainings
- Phase 3: Mid-Levels, Foundations (Pastoral Training) and Confessions (Doctrine Training)
Reports
e3 will provide you with quarterly reports of the work happening among the people group you choose to adopt. These reports will include data of things like number of gospel presentations, number of churches planted, etc. as well as specific stories of the work God is doing among the people group you’ve adopted.
Jessica Marquardt's e3 Partners Fundraiser
I will never forget March 12, 2018, because it was when my life changed forever. It was just a regular Monday night to most people, but for me it was the night that I heard God say he was ready for me to take action for His kingdom.
I was taking a 15 week Perspectives Class on the World Christian Movement and during our meeting on this night we covered chapter nine, “The Task Remaining.” As our speaker was explaining the breakdown of the world’s populations versus the number of Christians in the world, he stated that of the Hindu, Buddhist, and Muslim cultures 86% of them do not know a believer. As I sat there I was amazed. He went on to say, “every 2 seconds someone enters eternity without ever hearing the name of Jesus Christ.
God is doing something amazing in the world today. Behind all the news headlines, he is working among people groups to draw all people to himself. Through the years, he has worked in my heart and is calling me into mission part-time.
e3 Partners is a global missions agency advancing the Gospel and establishing the Church in over 65 countries. I belong to a body of over 400 staff and 2,000 national partners sharing his Gospel among the nations.
