International Christian Mission 2006 Latest : Why short-term missions trip?

FIELD REPORT

Burkina Faso

ICM's first trainings in Africa were in Burkina Faso - a joint project with Hillcrest Church. There are 75 church planters who are brought in every month for 4 months for a week of training and who have committed to going and doing pioneer church planting in this predominantly Muslim nation. Ram Zango, whom we met through Hillcrest, has the vision for overseeing this program and raising the funds for these 75 pastors and families who will need support for 2 years as they start their new churches. This is also where ICM had it's first translation of their new Bible School in a Briefcase done in French.
