Words that come to mind when thinking of Africa….
VIBRANT– Well, honestly this wasn’t what came to mind before we went, but we discovered that Africa had bright and beautiful people, landscape, and spiritual vitality springing up from a dry place.
HOPEFUL– Believers in Africa are trusting God for things thought impossible. Great adversity has been met with great confidence in God and His Word.
TOGETHER- Believers from nearly every continent committing themselves to humbly serve together to see Africa refreshed with God’s Good News.
SACRIFICE- While these sheep were quite grumpy, they serve as a reminder that the Shepherd who unflinchingly laid down His life for His sheep calls us to a life that withholds nothing from the altar.
PRAYER– We trust God for strength to let go of status quo, and creatively stretch toward those who have yet to delight in a friendship with their Creator.
We can’t begin to express how much we value your partnership with us. God never intended that any one person or organization would build His church alone. We couldn’t do this without you! Thank you!
