The Yasna project is seeking to establish a ministry facility that will act as a center of influence to this people group.

Our goal is to establish an indigenous SDA church-planting movement among the Yasna people. Among the more than 80 million Yasna, there are fewer than 20 Seventh-day Adventists. Because of the fear many Yasna have of their country’s secret police, they do not go to churches or evangelistic series openly. All Bible studies, evangelism and discipling will take place in private homes in a location where many Yasna people go in order to find out about Jesus. Our ministry will take place in the Farsi language, which we will have to learn, and we will have to present the gospel in the Yasna context.
