ORISSA VISION - 2020
Saturation Church planting strategy to Evangelise 37 Million people of
Orissa state, India

ORISSA VISION-2020 is a Saturation Church Planting programme of India Evangelistic Association. India Evangelistic Association is an indigenous faith ministry working in Orissa since 1984. The primary vision of IEA is to reach the Unreached People Groups and Areas and plant churches among them. IEA is a member mission of India Missions Association.

STRATEGY OF ORISSA VISION-2020
This is the most important part of ORISSA VISION-2020. As of today there are 1384 PIN Code areas in the ORISSA. All the People Groups, unreached villages, cities and towns, colleges & schools, hospitals, Police Stations, municipalities are situated in these PIN Code areas. Therefore if all the 1384 PIN Codes are reached with the gospel the entire ORISSA State will be reached. Each PIN Code consists of 5-6 villages and incase of towns or cities there are 5-6 localities. However, out of 1384 PIN Code areas about 1,000 PIN Code areas are unreached. This strategy aims at saturation church planting in every village/locality of each PIN Code area.

By AD 2020 every village and locality of every city / town will have a church, which means there will be 50,000 churches. Each Church planter will be responsible to establish 4/5 churches in his assigned PIN Code area. It will not be an impossible task to accomplish! I believe by the grace of God it can be done!!

PARTNERSHIP INVITED:
This gigantic task cannot be accomplished single handedly by a single mission / church. Therefore we invite like-minded missions / churches / organizations / families and foundations to join hands with us. Each mission / church / family / foundation can adopt one or more PIN Code areas in partnership with IEA. They can support a church planter at the rate of Rs.3,000/- (for family) and Rs.2,500/- (single person). Once a congregation is established, IEA will handover the same to the sponsoring partner agency/church/mission, after 3 /4 years. We do not want to build our kingdom in Orissa but our primary concern is to reach Orissa for Christ.

The partner agency or sponsoring body will provide a bicycle and a radio. Bicycle will be the main transportation to move around in the villages for the gospel worker. He will also look for opportunity to gather people in small groups to listen to gospel programmes in radio daily. This will be one time gift.
