Burkina Faso mission seminars confirmed

Institut Biblique Emmaüs, Leo, Burkina Faso

An unexpected meeting at a friends house with a visiting Burkinabe pastor, in late autumn of 2007, brought John face-to-face with a pastor, Phillippe Ouedraogo, whom he had known from a distance, through association with Les Nornam, of DCI, for almost twenty years.

On hearing about John's mission academy, Phillippe invited John to consider visiting and conducting some seminars with his pastors and leaders, within the northern part of Burkina Faso.

Philippe is Executive Director of AEAD, (in English, Evangelistic Association for Social Development) is a non-profitable NGO workin to improve the living conditions of people in Burkina Faso, through the love of God.

This occasion also provided another opportunity for John to join with Pastor David Zopoula, who has organised a mission academy with a group of his leaders in Leo.

The seminars are planned for the final week of November and the first week of December, 2008.
