Albania

Unreached peoples of Albania

An overview of the country's people groups, focusing on those who still have little or no access to the gospel in their own language and culture.

Overview

Albania has about 10 people groups, 2 of which are considered unreached, according to Joshua Project. Evangelicals are less than 1% of the population, and at least 3 languages still lack a translated Bible. The Albanian majority, though of nominal Muslim or Christian background, still lacks a living encounter with God, and mountain and rural communities remain distant from the gospel.
