missionaries serve in the following areas: agricultural, medical,
technical services and bookkeeping. They work primarily with the
Fulani, who are the largest nomadic-culture people in the world. About
25 million Fulani are spread across 19 countries from Senegal to Sudan.
Only about .01 percent are known to be Christian. Most have no known
witness of the good news of Jesus Christ. Covenant missionaries partner
with other mission organizations to minister to the Fulani in Burkina
Faso and the Central African Republic. |
Missionaries:
- Karen Benson serving in community health, discipleship, Fulani Ministry
- Roy and Aleta Danforth serving in agriculture and medical ministries
