The Mission


On Thursday, July 1, 18 of 25 mission team members will depart for the Northern Region of Ghana, West Africa.  Our mission is to simply share the glory of God with the Dagomba tribe, an unreached people group. We do this primarily through Bible storytelling.

By God's grace, we will join our Ghanaian brothers and sisters from Shalom Baptist Church in Tarikpaa village in these acts of service:

~ visiting orphans and helping fulfill some of their needs
~ visiting widows and helping to provide a way for them to sustain themselves and their families
~VBS program in the local mud-hut village schools
~Partner with World Vision in serving at a local Witch Camp (women shunned from the village)
~Hut-to-Hut Evangelism
~Participation in the local Good News Sports Evangelism Program (350 kids)

This team is very aware that apart from God, we are nothing and can do nothing, but with God, all things are possible.

Please pray that during every moment of every day of this trip we would be surrendered to the leading of the Holy Spirit and that the light of Jesus Christ would shine brightly.

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.  Luke 19:10
