Provide a Roof for Christians in Africa

Hello!

Recently we (David & Amanda) took a Mission Trip to Gambia in West Africa in November. While there, we formed a close personal relationship with a man named Fadil. Fadil was once a Muslim and gave his life to Christ and is now one of the top Missionaries in Africa with IMWA (Indigenous Mission of West Africa). In the Muslim culture, when someone converts to Christianity they are often abandoned by their family with no where to turn. Fadil has built his own compound where he helps to support and teach newly converted Christians how to have an intimate relationship with the Lord. These Christians will live in the compound for a length of time and will learn Biblical knowledge, how to share their Faith with others by evangelizing and spreading the Gospel, as well as fellowshipping and worshipping. They also learn self sustaining organic farming, laboring and building construction. Fadil has been working on constructing a building that will provide a place to worship, a place to share meals, and a place that could also function as temporary housing for new converts and missionaries. Currently, they have completed the structure of the building. Unfortunately, construction has come to a standstill and cannot be finished because a roof is needed that they are unable to afford. God has put it on our hearts to raise the funds needed to complete construction and provide the roof. If you feel moved to help, your support in any capacity would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for making a difference and helping us to do the true work of God’s Kingdom.
