SOC Ministry to Native American Indians

"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."
— Mark 16:15

There are currently 4.1 million American Indians in the United States. There are five hundred and fifteen tribes in the United States living on three hundred reservations, rancheros and colonies, two hundred of these tribes have not heard the name of Jesus.

The unemployment rate on the average reservation ranges from sixty to ninty-five percent. Indian youth have a higher suicide rate than the youth of any other nationality group in America. The School of Christ International has made great headways to bring the truth of Jesus Christ to the Indian nations, and what an impact it has made. Read some of our testimonies.
