Imagine living in a world where billions have never heard the truth of the gospel.
You don’t have to think long. Because we do.
There are places in the world where the name of Jesus isn’t spoken, where the gospel hasn’t been shared, where people simply haven’t heard. That’s what Reach the Last is all about.
We’re getting to know the least-reached and exploring how TWR is using innovative media and dedicated discipleship to break barriers and cross boundaries to bring the gospel to those who have never had the opportunity to hear it.
Together, we can Reach the Last.

Who knew that such a small island could have such an incredible impact? With only about 111 sq miles of land to its credit, Bonaire is the easternmost of the “ABC islands” in the Caribbean.
Don’t let its size fool you — it plays a crucial role in ministering to millions across Latin America and the Caribbean, serving as the home of one of our largest transmitter sites. But island life has its drawbacks, and salty air can do a number on the 479-foot antenna towers responsible for casting the gospel out over the sea to seeking souls across the world. Will you help support their continued work?

More than two years of warfare has changed the lives of millions of people in Ukraine, Russia and Belarus. But God has
blessed TWR with the ability to illuminate the darkness.
From transmitters located outside of these nations, we consistently broadcast vital messages of hope and truth. Our teams also use digital media, donating speakers, flash drives and SD cards loaded with biblical content to families, orphans and the disabled. The encouraging feedback we receive from listeners echoes the profound impact of these technologies:

“Thank you for the media player. I listen to it all the time. I go outside, switch it on, and listen. It makes me feel so light and calm. I understand so much more now. It turns out I was far away from understanding spiritual issues.”

Please join us in continued prayer for these nations and their people!

"Life in Venezuela was filled with challenges,” says Annabel Torrealba, TWR international director for Latin America and the Caribbean, and Venezuelan native, “yet it possessed certain comforts to the extent that God wasn't deemed essential. However, over the past 25 years, things began to shift. The infiltration of cults … and governmental decisions altered the landscape dramatically. Amidst scarcity and all-encompassing crises, Venezuelans have drawn closer to God, searching for hope. Our mission to proclaim the good news has found fertile ground."
We’re reaching the people of Venezuela with the hope of the gospel. Won’t you join us?

“I was a very bad person in my younger days.”
Amir* spent most of his youth as a fighter in a gang. One day, to pass the time, he decided to attend a church service, not expecting to get much out of it. To his surprise, he left the service feeling like a changed man because of the message he had heard.
Upon returning home that very same day, Amir walked in to see his father tuning the radio to TWR’s In Touch program. At that moment, he felt something he had never felt before.
“I heard the message from the radio program, and I was convicted of my sins,” Amir said.
This moment led Amir to further pursue a relationship with God. He began to attend church and listen to TWR’s programs regularly and has since given his life to Christ. Looking back on his life before Christ, Amir could not be happier to have left his old life behind.
“I now do ministry for children in an organization,” Amir said. “The radio program changed my life. I have left all my old habits behind.”

TWR Ukraine has completed 10 episodes of the Yak vi tam? project. For each two-hour video episode, the team (and host, Andriy) travels to a different Ukrainian city to interview Christians. They talk about how God is at work in their city amid the turmoil of war, sharing realistic details about their current situation.
Because the project is a medley of personal stories that many Ukrainians can relate to, it’s been a fruitful platform for candid conversations about God.
One viewer put it nicely:
“Sincere thanks, brother Andriy, and the entire team for the wonderful interviews with faithful, God-loving people and pastors. It's wonderful when difficult circumstances unite not only believers but all the city's residents. May even more people come to know Christ, and may the city flourish for the Lord!”

Unable to read or write, Fazli* had a hard time learning how to pray. For a long time, he just didn’t have access to the right resources to do so.
“I felt humiliated whenever my name was called to lead a prayer,” the 50-year-old Pakistani man shared.
But things changed for the better when Fazli started tuning in to a TWR program in the Saraiki language and other Christian programming on his MP3 device. Soon, he grew more confident in his ability to pray. The intimidation he used to feel every time he prayed in a group setting slowly faded.
“By listening to the Word of God through [these programs], I have gained the strength of a literate human,” Fazli said. “I tell anyone who can’t read or write that it’s not a flaw; there are many other ways to get closer to God and to learn about him. I thank God for giving me the tongue by which I can tell people about God’s Word.”

Mission 66 was first developed in Portuguese by Luiz Sayão of TWR Brazil. Over 600 episodes lead listeners through all 66 books of the Bible, and TWR’s goal is to broadcast the series in 10 of the world’s most-spoken languages. The Spanish version for Latin America was launched in October 2023, and by Thanksgiving, over 40,000 people had visited TWR’s online site to listen to Mission 66. The impact has been undeniable:
“I am a journalist, 23 years old. Listening to your program, there has been a profound change in my life. I was desperate and discouraged with no desire to live, but thanks to God, I believed in Jesus, and you were the channel to help me make that decision.”
