| Project Description: | Your main objective while in Burkina Faso will be to share Christ through a cultural exchange, particularly through sports ministry.
After a short time of orientation in Bobo, the team will go to a “town” called Sindou for the rest of their stay in Burkina. While in Sindou, the team will play sports, participate in children’s ministry and prayer walk in several neighborhoods. The area surrounding Sindou is culturally diverse and there will be interactionis with various ethnic groups, including the Senufo peoples, Natioro and Ble. They will share with the team their language, culture, and customs. The team, will then have an opportunity to teach them about the “culture” of the Christian life!
The volunteers who participate in this particular trip must be very flexible and mature. By doing sports camps and clinics, the team will have access into this country where it might otherwise be prohibited. Sports provide an open door to engage others into a relationship where Christ can be shared. |
