AFRICA: The Gambia
Medicine & Miracles Hot, dusty villages. Children laughing and running everywhere. Women setting up rickety tables as they prepare to sell their wares. Doctors, nurses and students working side by side to serve and to bless. You’ve made your way to The Gambia, Africa. Africa is called the Dark Continent, not because of the color of the people’s skin but because of the lack of hope in their eyes. Locked into black magic, witch-doctor traditions, Islam and economic depression, they share a hopelessness only Jesus can overcome. The Gambia is a predominantly Muslim country and spiritually intense. You’ll use your gifts and talents as you display the Gospel in love and power in medical clinics and two days of mass campaign miracle meetings to display the gospel as it is preached in power and demonstration to the masses. For many of those we serve, this will be their first experience with a real doctor. Most of their medical care comes from the village marabou (a witch doctor who adheres to a mixture of Islamic and traditional African beliefs.) God is calling many to proclaim Him in this Dark Continent. The real question is not who will go. Instead, you must ask yourself, “Why not me?” Why would it not be me whom God calls to push back the darkness in areas that have never experienced light? Will you proclaim Him in the Gambia?
