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)
*If you’d like more information or have any questions about adopting the Oriya people group, you can contact us at 214.440.1101 or by email at help@e3partners.org.
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.

JOINING GOD'S MISSION
We are ambassadors for Christ…We plead on Christ’s behalf, “Be reconciled to God.” 2 Corinthians 5:20
FROM MICHIGAN TO THE NATIONS - What does that look like?
- 10 million people
- over 68% lost
- 300,000+ people from Unreached People Groups (less than 2% believers) within two hours of my home
- 2 million people
- Over 99.5% lost
MY ROLE
While I care for Shiloh (who has special needs) and Reuben, I will serve and train from my home base with the goal of identifying, equipping and sending believers God is calling.
I am praying for many experienced and committed laborers for the people of Michigan and SE Asia. Along the way, it will be a privilege to come alongside believers with vision for other locations as well!
YOUR ROLE
Thank you in advance for your generosity. May the Lord bless you and give you great joy in the testimonies of what He does!
