Sereer of Senegal - How far, how deep are you willing to go to share your faith those who have never heard? Are you willing to sacrifice personal comforts and "get your hands dirty" so that those ready to receive can be reached with God's Good News? As you come alongside these warm, fun-loving, hard-working millet farmers, you, too, can see a rich harvest coming out of a dry ground that seems unable to produce a crop. Though steeped in ancient traditions, the limited work of other mission agencies among the Sereer has begun to produce fruit, with a few believers and small groups being formed in isolated villages. Come join us as we take hold of the plow together to gather souls that will produce ten, even a hundredfold--beyond all of our imaginations!]]> kimberley@forsythes.net (Kimberley Forsythe) Go West Africa Journeyman, ISC, and Masters Openings Tue, 04 Nov 2008 13:07:53 -0500 gowestafrica-short-90325
