Whose turn to do the dishes?

Posted on March 7, 2011 by danforth


Here are a couple of cute as a button Fulani girls, doing the dishes for their family at the hospital. There is no food service available – the patients’ families come and take care of them, cooking in outside shelters, washing dishes with water from a few central faucets, and sleeping under and around the patients’ beds at night.

About danforth

As Covenant missionaries, we are working with all the tribal groups of the Central African Republic (CAR) but are trying to give special attention to the Fulani, a Musxlim, cattle herding, and semi-nomadic people group. We live on an experimental/training farm, near a mission station which has a hospital plus bible and nursing schools. We are establishing relationships with the local people groups through compassion ministries; Roy through agriculture and Aleta through public health and visitation, in order, ultimately, to share the good news of Jesus the Messiah with them. CAR is one of the least developed countries in the world and is currently in continual crisis (since the coup in March 2013), so reaching out in compassion is key to reaching their hearts. Due to the ongoing conflict and resultant ethnic cleansing in CAR, we are crossing the border to interact with our Fulani contacts.
