The power of God is being seen today throughout the Muslim world in the Middle East and in Central Asia. Significant breakthroughs have occurred in the last few years as God is opening the hearts of Arabs, Jews, Iranians, Afghans, Kurds and other people groups in the two regions. Mission researchers estimate that more Muslims have committed to follow Christ in the last 10 years than in the last 15 centuries of Islam. Although Islam is still the dominant religion in the MECA area, the overwhelming majority of Muslims are nominal and do not practice their faith. The door to reach them has never been more open.
          
e3 Partners has six national directors in this region. Through God's gracious provision these national directors and their ministry teams have linked with major American churches that are providing continual prayer-intercession and funding in order to help them in their e3 national strategy.
 
Discipleship is the key to building a strong church in the MECA region. The church must be strong enough to withstand the onslaught of persecution that is being leveled at it by Islamic terrorist groups. e3 is investing in leaders within the region in order to equip them to launch stable reproducing flocks. Training is the key and e3 has ministry training centers around the MECA region and even seminary level courses to teach the national leaders within their own country. This year hundreds of new churches will be planted across the region. At e3, our vision is that these churches help change nations by bringing life in Christ to every village and city within the Middle East and Central Asia.
