Mekong Multiply, Inc. — Organization Profile
Mekong Multiply, Inc. is a Christian 501(c)(3) organization in Louisville, Kentucky, focused on multiplying disciples and churches in Southeast Asia. The organization exists to glorify Jesus by multiplying disciples and churches among unreached people groups in Southeast Asia and beyond. Its public theme is “Multiplying Disciples & Churches in Southeast Asia.”
The organization’s core focus is mobilizing national Christians as missionaries to unreached peoples in their own countries through reproducible disciple-making and church-planting approaches. Mekong Multiply’s stated passion is to see peoples who have never heard about Jesus receive the opportunity to become his passionate followers. Its ministry is shaped by a concern for unreached tribes and communities where people may have little or no access to the gospel.
Mekong Multiply serves Southeast Asia, with a regional focus on the eleven nations south of China and east of India. The organization identifies more than 700 unreached tribes in that region, with a combined population exceeding 330 million. Its public ministry areas include Laos, Myanmar, and Sumatra, Indonesia, along with the broader Southeast Asian region where Buddhism, Animism, Islam, and communist government contexts shape the mission field.
The ministry operates by recruiting, training, mobilizing, and coaching national missionaries. Mekong Multiply seeks to develop national missionary sending bases in Southeast Asian countries with significant numbers of unreached people groups. Its strategy emphasizes national missionaries who cross cultures within their own countries, engage unreached people groups, make disciples who reproduce, and help plant indigenous churches that can continue without dependence on outside workers.
A distinctive part of Mekong Multiply’s approach is supporting national missionary movements that plant reproducible churches among unreached people groups from within their own regional context. In Myanmar, the ministry works with experienced partners to recruit, train, and send national missionaries, including tentmaking preparation for self-sufficiency. In Laos, Launch Laos and The Final 58 focus on sending and sustaining national missionaries to reach remaining unengaged unreached people groups. In Sumatra, Shine Sumatra seeks to mobilize Indonesian national missionaries to reach unreached groups on the island.
People can engage with Mekong Multiply by giving, joining the newsletter, contacting the organization, exploring future mission opportunities, participating in prayer journeys, or taking the Get On Mission course. Get On Mission is a seven-session equipping course developed to help small groups, churches, and other participants engage the lost and unreached with the love and good news of Jesus. The ministry also invites people to consider full-time missionary service, short-term trips, and partnership in prayer and support.
