Masks and the virus

Posted on April 21, 2020 by danforth

This little Fulani boy had a bright idea!!  Not sure how effective it would be against the virus, but it sure was creative!

Here are a couple of news articles from the influenza pandemic of 1918+, sounds familiar, eh? Well, maybe not the kissing part in the U.S., but here in South Africa there actually have been similar suggestions made by leaders during newscasts.

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.
