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.
The Pitcairn Islands have a single people, the Pitcairn Islanders themselves, descendants of the Bounty mutineers and Tahitian women. Almost the entire population identifies as Christian, linked to the Seventh-day Adventist tradition, but Joshua Project classifies this people as partially reached: the faith is, to a large extent, cultural inheritance, not a personal commitment and mature discipleship renewed in each generation. There is no unreached people in the territory, but the challenge of spiritual depth and continuity of the church is real.

Every unreached people group is an entire culture still without full access to the gospel. Join in prayer with Christians around the world.
