In 2016, Hope for Burkina Faso Ministries was birthed out of a cause. We are living in a time in history where it is possible to see every nation, tribe, village, and region can be reached with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We believe God has sent us to the country of Burkina Faso where less than 30% of the populations are Christians, with Catholics representing 23.3% and Protestant 6.5%. The bible tells us in John 20:21”Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” God gave us a plan to reach a village in Burkina Faso named Nobere that has a population of 30,000. As you look at our website, you will see love in action. We are seeing a tremendous door open for us to share the Gospel not only in Nobere but surrounding villages.

    If you are reading this, I'm asking you to pray for safety of Burkina Faso and the Lord’s work. In 2019, 1,111 schools out of 2,869 have closed because of terrorism. This year, there have been over 190 terrorist attacks and over 100,000 people have had to flee their homes. The Islamist militants are targeting Christians in these attacks. They are being told to “convert, flee or die.” The beautiful people of Burkina Faso need to know we are standing with them and they are not alone. Your prayers and support are making a difference in such a time as this. You are helping put boots on the ground in the front lines. They are armed with the Gospel, filled with the Spirit of God and motivated with the love of Jesus. This is a time when the family of God can shine the Glory of God. In every generation until now, there have been ordinary people just like you and me who partnered with God and brought change. Won't you join us?

All in,
