The Lord extended His mercies to several lives, families, Campuses, villages, towns and the Capital City (Ouagadougou) of Burkina Faso. 68 people (43 male & 25 female) comprising Students, lecturers, medical practitioners and people in other professions left Nigeria on November 1st for Burkina Faso and returned on November 11th. Aside from 4 participants who opted for flight; we rode in two Coaster Buses released by a first generation university and TKP Mitsubishi L300 Bus.
We ministered in the University of Ouagadougou through person-to-person witnessing, film show in the University Hostels, as well as drama and musical concerts. We distributed tracts in the Secondary Schools and ministered in the motor parks and market places.
Two nights and two days were spent in 8 villages located at 100km away from the Capital City. We held a one-day leadership training for 36 Burkinabe Missionaries, a seminar for Christian teachers, and an academic seminar for the University Students.
