About Me
GAPP is designed to help you as you engage in the Great Commission with the people groups around you. But you also have a people group identity.
...
All users of GAPP are asked to enter their own people group information (their country of citizenship or origin, their self-identified people group name, their primary language, and their other spoken languages). This information will be used to deliver back to GAPP users various scales of engagement showing whether that engagement of various people groups around the world is happening from same culture, near culture, or cross-cultural efforts. Consider: If someone else was sharing the gospel with you, what country would you want them to say you are from, language you speak, and people group you belong to?
Select your country of origin.
Select your primary spoken ( or signed ) language language.
Select the people group you are a member of.
Select all other languages you speak or sign Select your christian affiliation sign.
