Reforestation, yes!

Posted on June 21, 2016 by danforth

We are excited, the rains have come and some of the acreage dedicated for reforestation is ready for trees. Roy and crew planted around 200 trees this morning, only about 3,000 to go! They decided that re-clearing around each hole as they plant is not the way to go. They’re going to get everything ready and get those trees in the ground!

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.
