Kids on vacation? Put ’em to work!

Posted on June 18, 2020 by danforth

The kids are on vacation, yes, and they do enjoy lots of free time play time, but they always are ready to help if you ask them. This past week they’ve been busy with:

planting a fruit/ornamental hedge around the veggie garden

helping build the pumphouse, to keep the pump for our water system on the farm safe from weather and thieves

harvesting peanuts and coffee. They are good helpers with good attitudes!

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.
