Profiles are word pictures by which we see, and identify the need of people yet to be reached with the gospel of Jesus Christ. A people group is an ethno-linguistic group of people with a common language and culture as identified in Acts 2 and Revelation 5:9. God calls them "peoples, tribes, tongues, and nations. We have been trained to generally think of people as nations, or political boundaries. God sees them differently. There are some 240 nations in our world, but there are more than 12,000 people groups. We invite you to see the world as God sees it, as peoples lost and without hope.

Follow the hypertext jumps to the country of the people you are researching. The Country file contains and index of the Unreached Peoples for which we currently have profiles available. We have kept them in ASCII text format for your convenience in using them in your Word Processor of Desktop Publisher. Feel free to use them as bulletin inserts, newsletter highlights, and prayer meeting intercessory guides.

(Thanks to Robert Nance for years of tedious work typing in these profiles long before UPGs became so popular.)
