Indigitous communities across the globe collaborate to take the Gospel to new people, places and spaces through the month of July.
Throughout July, Indigitous communities worldwide actively engaged in #HACK2025 events and preparations. From Asia to Europe, communities collaborated, shared insights, and developed projects aimed at bringing the Gospel to new people, places, and spaces.
South Asia
On July 26, the Indigitous South Asia community hosted ‘Idea Labs,’ a one day event dedicated to exploring innovations for missions. Twenty-four participants from 10 churches worked together to create solutions to challenges unique to their cities. They developed strategies, harnessing social media, gaming, digital outreach and product development, to open more creative ways to share the Gospel.
Tanzania
On July 11 the LIFE Ministry Tanzania trained staff and volunteers for a new Vision Clinic designed to provide eye care for those in Dodoma, Tanzania. The Vision Clinic officially opened on July 14 at the Kikombo Health Center.
On July 30, the LIFE Ministry also convened the Christian Organizations Leaders’ meeting in Morogoro. This meeting fostered unity and strengthened collaboration among the participating organizations. Team-building activities, including various games and a football match, played a significant role in helping participants connect and build meaningful relationships.

Indigitous Global
The Indigitous global team hosted a virtual Open House event on the topic of using virtual reality (VR) for missions on July 5. Seventeen people from 8 countries gathered in VRChat, an online VR platform, to discuss how the space can be used to tell more people about Jesus.
From July through September, Indigitous is hosting a three-part series: ‘Taking a Step to Reach Your World’ to provide #HACK participants and champions with foundational information and motivation to continue their #HACK projects, even after the events are complete. On July 30, Indigitous hosted the first event in the series: ‘Trying Something New: Missional Innovation.’ Liam Savage, director of innovation at OneHope and author of Green Sky Innovation, spoke at the event, encouraging participants to step out in faith and try something new to take the Gospel to new people, places and spaces. Fifty-nine participants from 23 countries attended, and over 100 engaged in a 48-hour AMA (ask me anything) with Liam on Instagram following the event.
As of August 8, 104 champions from 85 cities and 42 countries have expressed interest in hosting #HACK.
