Good news from CEFA!

We are so grateful for cell phones and whatsapp!  Just this week we got some photos of our buddies BB and N’s smiling faces, and heard some news of how things are going.  N and CEFA’s new director, D, visited BB’s village in Cameroon.  They were able to visit ag co-ops and see the progress in the fields, and see again how beautiful the relationships are with the Fulani and local peeps.  Visiting BB is always a whirlwind of people and places, he is our type A go-getter, never slowing down in his desire to reach people with health and wholeness, always hoping to share God’s love and saving grace.

N and BB full of smiles about the healthy co-op garden

Not so happy here, they’re showing a diseased jakfruit, but it looks like it will survive. Jakfruit are fast growing and producing, and they are hardy!

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.
