Mossi

Most of my people live in Burkina Faso, but my family came to Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) a long time ago to work in the coffee and cocoa plantations. I've never lived in Burkina Faso, but my grandparents are there. When we are able to save enough money, our family travels on the train to visit them. My father and mother are followers of Jesus, but my grandparents say they can never turn their backs on our ancestors by leaving Islam.
