Prayers for family & missionaries
NAB Missionary Opportunity: Jeff & Sonya write: “One of the things we have been praying about, for a long while, is the raising up of more workers in this field (cf. Matt 9.37-38).” The position is with the NAB. Contact Caryn Young, cyoung@nabconf.org.at the NAB International Missions office if you believe God is directing you to serve in missions.
Gaynaako– Cameroon, Nigeria
Working among a small minority (less than 2%) of followers of Christ among a Least-Reached People Group (LRPG) of over 44 million people living in the Sahel Region of Africa, including Cameroon and Nigeria, a Gaynaako is a shepherd, who will seek to build up and strengthen the diaspora communities among the LRPG, living among them, increasing their capacity to reach the unbelievers among their people group. The egalitarian shepherd will serve as the liaison between the Iimaniya and the NAB, and will be a good communicator, both verbally and in print.
You will live alongside experienced Waynaaɓe (shepherds), both western and African, humbly open to learning other cultures and languages, being physically and spiritually able to travel and visit in the various diaspora communities, offering biblical insights respecting the challenges being faced by those communities. Any and all other skills and abilities the shepherd may have (e.g., in the areas of accounting, agriculture, carpentry, education, electrical, engineering, health, law, plumbing, etc.) can be utilized in this field if the Lord wills, in either formal or informal venues.
