Essence d'Ame {Gabon}
Intimately powerful describe ministry in Africa. On this year long adventure in Africa you will have the opportunity to come face to face with AIDS, extreme poverty, malaria, famine, and blessing and you will see God in all of them.
Experience stories like Ruth’s, a three year old girl suffering from AIDS at Bongolo Hospital. She only needs an inexpensive bottle of medicine to extend her life but it is unavailable to her.
Visit Bongolo Hospital and Dr. David Thompson. Be encouraged by the great number of people that accept Jesus every year in that ministry. Learn to communicate in French during language study.
