Background Info on the Greek People

Greek is spoken by 12 million people worldwide, making it number 74 on the SIL Top 100 World Languages by Population.

The United States Census Bureau reports that more than 388,000 Americans speak Greek at home, making Greek number 12 on the list of the 50 most common languages spoken in the U.S. (1990 statistics).

Greece has a rich Christian heritage and much of the New Testament was written in Greek. The World Factbook reports that the population of Greece is 98% Greek Orthodox, 1.3% Muslim, and less than 1% Protestant.

Information for Churches

Perhaps you've noticed that several Greek families have moved into your community. Your church would like to get acquainted with them and find ways to serve your new neighbors. But how can you begin?

Begin by cultivating a loving heart, a listening ear, and the habit of prayer. Look for opportunities to learn about other cultures and develop skills for cross-cultural communication. There are lots of resources on this site, including the article "How to Start a Cross-Cultural Ministry," that can help you prepare to move forward in faith.

The Jesus Film is a great way to share the gospel in the "heart language" of your Greek neighbors. Campus Crusade for Christ has produced this beautiful film of the gospel of Luke and translated it into over 600 languages, including Greek. Your church can buy a video for less than $20 and sponsor a "Greek Night" to show the film and begin a dialogue. Ask Greek leaders in the community if they would like to see the film and if they'll help you invite other families.

To order the Jesus Film, visit Jesusfilm.org. Or order by phone from Campus Crusade at 1-800-432-1997.

God's Story is an 80-minute video which presents the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. The video (and an audio version) are available in Greek.
