"The Royal Rangers ministry carries within itself the potential to be the most powerful force in the world to influence the lives of young men, powerfully equipping them for service to Christ and their fellow man."
Doug Marsh
The Need
- 970,000,000 Ranger-aged unsaved boys, nearly two billion children worldwide.
- 135 nations yet to establish Royal Rangers
- Thousands of children and youth are caught in child trafficking in Eurasia.
- Twenty-two states in Europe have an evangelical population of 1 percent or less.
- 44% of Sub-Saharan Africans are 14 years or younger. (331 million)
- In France, licensed fortune tellers out number Protestant pastors 35 to 1.
- More than 21,000 towns and villages in Russia, Siberia and Belarus are unreached with the message of Christ.
Some Progress
- Royal Rangers International was founded in 2002 with 56 nations and currently Royal
Rangers are established in 78 nations.
- About 350 Africans received Royal Ranger leadership training in the last two years;
some paid the equivalent of 3 months salary just to travel to the training event.
- Plans are developing for the Global Royal Rangers Curriculum to be translated into
French, Chinese and Portuguese in addition to the languages that are in progress or
completed – English, Spanish and Russian.
- There are only eight AGWM missionaries focusing on growing Royal Rangers: two
in Russia, one in Kenya, one in Costa Rica, one to Chile, one in construction, one to Native Americans, and one RRI Director/USA Director.
