Senegal Rural Engagement Strategy Team
Project Overview
Our team works with more than 50 very diverse people groups, from Muslims living in the northern desert to Animists in the southern forests, each with their own language and culture. Their cultural identity is intertwined with religious tradition, and personal identity is tied to relationships. To accept Christ and reject the communally held religious traditions often means being renounced by one’s family and ostracized by the community, which means new believers also lose their sense of identity – all of the cultural, community, and family connections that have made them who they are. The other danger is for seekers to add Jesus to their different beliefs rather than to serve Him only and fully.
Pray for seekers in Senegal to have the strength to choose Jesus above everything. We invite you to join us through prayer and giving as we work with partner churches to bring the gospel to the villages and offer leadership development and pastoral training for national pastors. We use several strategies to make disciples, raise up leaders, and plant churches: follow-up in villages using a discipleship tool called Tree of Life; radio broadcasts of Bible stories across the country; partnership with the Alliance of Baptist Churches to teach Baptist doctrines; and an annual Christian men’s retreat for one region.
God is at work in Senegal, using our team and local believers to glorify His name and transform lives through Christ. We invite you to join us in sowing and reaping in this harvest field!
