About Pioneers
Pioneers mobilizes teams who live among unreached people groups, partnering with local churches to ignite disciple-making movements (pioneers.org). For the Scott family, this means embedding into the culture, learning the language, engaging in daily life with locals, and helping the church-planting process from the inside out.
Ministry Goals
The Scotts’ vision is to see thriving, self-sustaining churches among people in Central Asia. They aim to engage in intentional language learning, relational evangelism, and discipleship—sharing Christ both within their local community and through other opportunities. Their prayer is to see the Kingdom of God grow in a place where few have heard His name.
