Positioned in the horn of Africa, Ethiopia is one of the continent’s oldest independent nations. It experiences both fertile, mountainous plateaus and drought-prone lowlands. It is most famously known as the birthplace of coffee.
After decades of suffering under communist rule, the Church has forged an unrelenting love for the Gospel and one another. This has laid the groundwork for a strong missionary presence. Still, over 20 million people have never heard the Gospel.
On this trip we will be focused on the Omo Valley region of southwestern Ethiopia, one of 9 ethnic zones across the country.
WHAT WE’RE DOING
This expedition is a unique opportunity to reach people in the Omo Valley with the story of Jesus. We are working with a series of churches who have a passion for reaching their neighbors and communities.
On this trip, we will visit people in their homes, share the love of Christ and warn rural villagers about the very prevalent sex trafficking dangers.
In addition to taking the gospel to the villages, we will also encourage and disciple existing Christians. As people give their lives over to Jesus, they will be connected with local pastors who will establish new small groups and churches, ensuring a lasting impact in the region.
Are you ready for the adventure to begin?
