The bigwigs together and a GREAT Berberati trip!


We had such a good trip yesterday to Berberati along with our regional coordinators, John & Letha Kerl, who are visiting from Lyon, France. You might remember their names as the ones who hosted Roy during his tooth crisis over New Year’s. Our trip yesterday was full of items crossed off our to-do list. The bank was not “broken” this time, so we did some banking. The president of the EEB church hosted us for a lovely light lunch the signing of the English version of the agreement between the EEB church and the Covenant mission. Roy was able to buy bushings and windshield wipers and a new light bulb for the truck’s interior. The road had been worked on, so the trip took around 2 instead of 3 hours for the 55 mile distance. We came home tired and hot but so very thankful that all went well.

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.
