The Haynes Family are missionaries to the largest Tribe and Indian Reservation in America, the Navajo Nation. Covering nearly 30,000 square miles, the Reservation is larger than the state of West Virginia. Its boundaries cover portions of three states; Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. There are approximately 300,000 Navajos living on the “Rez.”

The greatest battles the Haynes Family must face among the Navajo people is that of Native Traditionalism, Alcoholism and the recently made legal Casinos. With an unemployment rate of over 48% there are many of our people who drink and gamble away their meager income with no thought of family or future. Coming to Navajo country is like stepping into a third world country right within the borders United States. Much of the Navajo Nation still lives without running water or electricity.

In spite of the obstacles God has developed a spirit of openness to the Gospel like never before among the Navajo. Long time missionaries and preachers alike agree that there has never been a greater time or opportunity to reach Navajo people than today!
