Key Ministries
Mobilising and Sending
SIM Taiwan mobilises churches and individuals for mission, equipping and sending workers to serve where Christ is least known. We work in partnership with local churches to encourage mission vision and active participation.
Reaching the Margins
We also welcome and equip mission workers to serve in Taiwan, focusing on three key groups: migrant workers, international students, and elderly people in rural areas. These are often overlooked communities, yet they are open to friendship, support and the message of Christ.
Spiritual Landscape in Taiwan
Taiwan is a culturally rich and religiously diverse society, where traditional beliefs dominate. The majority of the population practise folk Buddhism, often blended with Taoism and ancestral worship.
Christian Population
Christians make up approximately five per cent of the population. Urban churches are generally more vibrant and active in evangelism, while rural areas often remain spiritually dry and unreached. The church is growing steadily in urban centres and there is a growing awareness and concern for unreached people groups within Taiwan. However, rural churches are often in need of revitalisation and fresh gospel engagement.
Please pray
- For more workers from Taiwan who are after God’s heart and will go to least-reached
people groups to make disciples for the Lord - For open doors for connecting with churches and organisations in Taiwan to partner in
serving migrant workers, international students and elderly people in rural areas - For suitable workers who can witness Christ to the unreached people groups in Taiwan
