Jan & Kim heading back to C.A.R.

Posted on January 7, 2016 by danforth

Our friends, colleagues, and extended family (our daughter-in-law Kimia’s folks), Jan & Kim Cone, will be on their way to Gamboula as of January 8th.  We are so thankful that Kim has made good enough progress with his broken but repaired neck to make this huge trip.  We hope and pray that their travels go well, and that the Fulani will soon return to our little town there.  We look forward to joining them in June.

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.
