One last farewell and the mission is feeling empty

blog Tim n Ann 29.7.14Tim & Ann Wester, long time missionaries,I mean, really really long time missionaries, both having grown up in DRCongo, have finished up their term here.  They are heading for the states now, for a year of home assignment, catching up with family, friends, and supporters.  They will be missed, with their hard work and contributions here, there, and everywhere.  Ann taught at the bible school, and those new pastors are now out in the big world.  Tim & Ann both taught at the nursing school, and those new registered nurses will soon be out in the big world too.  The mission houses are mostly empty, just the local pastor and our old neighbor, Jean-Claude and family, will be left in the main circle.

Please pray for Tim & Ann, for a year of great visits and refreshing times in the U.S., for the Lord to bless them and make them a blessing to others.

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.
