Prayer Session 4

West & Central Africa

Eastern Europe/ Eurasia

Prayer is the Key

„We are constantly on a stretch, if not on a strain, to devise new methods, new plans, new organizations to advance the church and secure enlargement and efficiency for the gospel… What the church needs today is not more machinery or better, not new organizations or more and novel methods, but men (and women) whom the Holy Spirit can use- men (and women) of prayer..”

West & Central Africa

Overview

West and Central Africa embraces 24 countries with more than 500 least-reached people groups remaining.

The countries of Senegal, Mali, Guinea, Gambia, Mauritania, and Niger lead the way with over 80% of their populations least-reached.

Still, in terms of number of people, Nigeria has over 45 million people least-reached, although they represent only 34.7% of the total population of that nation.

The church has grown rapidly especially in places like Nigeria which is now also a sending base for missionaries to other continents

One of the greatest challenges is AIDS which now overshadows the future of the entire continent and added to that, the specter of poverty looms large over much of this region.
