Prayer Requests


  • Though those in the northern regions are officially Muslim, the West and East Limba peoples rely heavily on their ancestral spirits. They have a spiritual "home" called Kakoia, where some go on a pilgrimage. https://joshuaproject.net/people_groups/16038/GV


  • TRAVEL- We are headed to the interior. It will be 4 days of 8-10 hour drives some paved and some not. Pray for safety and for no car issues. Also favor at all the military checkpoints. TABS- Last month we put up 5 Tabs and this month we have 2 more going up. Pray for safety again and for all the logistics. Also pray for us as we are working to raise more funds to continue our Tab projects in 2026. The church is growing the need for Tabs is only increasing. ABIGAIL- For each ministry trip we go on. Abigail has to work ahead in both her HS and college courses. Pray for her as she juggles normal teenage responsibilities with life on the missions field.

Pray for Matthew as he leads and his friends as the seek more of the Lord.

Projects


Children's Tabs

Give Now

We need funds to build 30+ Children’s Church structures in strategic locations throughout Guinea. These structures are used for Sunday school classrooms. They can also used to create kid’s camps and hold VBS services. They will also be used for Christian schools. This is an effective strategy to reach non-Christian children as local schools do not always provide an adequate education so many families are willing to send their children to our Christian schools.
