Wassulu of Mali, Guinea, and Cote d’Ivoire

(WAH-soo-loo) – For the foreseeable future, the Wassulu workers in Mali maintain their same goals of sharing the gospel and nurturing the indigenous Church. However, their objectives and methods must pivot due to the current situation in Mali, which is greatly limiting travel even for indigenous workers. This is due both to the extreme security issues and the lack of fuel for transportation. The workers have been discussing and preparing for this time that they hoped would never come, but God has allowed it to be so. Pray as workers continue to communicate, as much as possible, with scattered believers and co-workers throughout the region and country. Pray for the Lord’s protection for Wassulu believers and leaders, as the persecution of Christians in Mali has greatly increased. May they be found faithful to God even in the most difficult of situations, and may how they respond to what the Lord allows bring others to Christ. Pray for the workers as they seek God’s guidance in developing and executing alternative plans for encouraging, teaching, and nurturing believers as well as proclaiming the gospel.
