Support my trip to Ivory Coast, West Africa
It’s time once again for West Africa! This will be my fourth ministry trip to the region, and I am excited to see what God has planned for the nations of West Africa.
Why West Africa?
Many nations in West Africa are French-speaking and are often overlooked by the global Church. One of the most neglected areas of ministry is children's ministry. Our passion is to train, equip, and encourage church leaders, pastors, and children's ministry leaders to understand God's heart for children and to effectively minister to the next generation.
What Will We Be Doing?
I have been invited to speak at a one-week intensive leadership training in Ivory Coast, where we expect 100–150 leaders from approximately 15 West African nations.
During this training, I will be teaching on important topics including:
- God's Heart for Children
- Leading a Child to Christ
- Baptism of the Holy Spirit for Children
- Inner Healing for Children
- Ministering to Families
- Children's Discipleship
- Creative and Effective Teaching Methods
These are vital topics for today's Church as we seek to raise up healthy, Spirit-filled disciples from a young age.
How You Can Help
To make this trip possible, I am seeking to raise $3,000 to cover:
- Airfare
- Accommodation
- Meals
- Training materials and ministry resources
Every gift, whether large or small, will help equip leaders who will, in turn, impact thousands of children and families across West Africa.
Thank you for your prayers, encouragement, and financial support. Together, we can help strengthen children's ministry throughout this region and invest in the next generation of believers.
