Communities where He is least known
Throughout North Africa there are few resident witnesses of the good new in the local communities. Pray for our workers as they locate to coastal cities and desert towns; that they would find favor and relationships with people of peace.
God is blessing us with more and more workers coming to serve across North Africa. Though the work is difficult, we are seeing fruit where God has placed us. Through businesses and employment opportunities, we are building meaningful relationships with employees, community leaders, neighbors, language teachers and new believers.
The Faithful Witness project is bringing workers from Francophone Africa to serve as campus disciplers. These workers are mobilizing Christian sub-Saharan African university students to minister to North African students. Pray for these Christian students to develop a heart for Muslim students, develop friendships and point North Africans to Jesus.
Among the 92 ethnic groups in North Africa, 22 are nomadic. Very few workers are bringing the gospel to them. Working with nomads is challenging, requiring creative strategies and adapted methods. Pray for the Bedouins, Tuaregs and Moors. SIM workers in one of the North African desert countries mainly inhabited by these nomads will support and disciple underground church leaders as they lead the small groups of believers across the land.
