Teenage boys’ afternoon pasttime?

Posted on May 4, 2011 by danforth


These boys want to earn a little spending money, so they make, yes, brooms! They go out in fields and pick handfuls of wild grasses and clean them up a little and tie them together at the handle with thin strips of discarded inner tubing! Industrious and creative, keeps them out of mischief and puts a little extra food in their tummies!

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.
