This December, a small team from our church will travel to Germany to host a retreat for workers in secure access regions of North Africa who will meet us there. These workers are faithfully serving in parts of the world where the Gospel is not openly received. This gathering is a rare and vital opportunity to provide rest, care, and encouragement to those on the frontlines of ministry in hard-to-reach places.
While this trip is not open for sign-ups, you can still play a key role by giving financially to help cover the team’s travel and ministry expenses.
