Hello and greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
We are still in Dakar, Senegal serving as high-school boys dorm parents at Dakar Academy. We are mainly dorm parents for C&MA boys whose parents are serving in the West Africa area. We will have 12 boys living with us in a converted house ( to a dorm ) and we live just two blocks away from the school. We have been dorm parents for the last 16 years and we love every minute of it. We are presently in the USA for a short home assignment and we be returning back to Dakar on August 11th, 2004.
If you want to email us or be put on our weekly dorm newsletter, please contact us at the following email address, jtimberlake@sentoo.sn

I will also need to update our picture soon as our boys are now, Ryan 17, Kyle 16, Tyler 13, and Cory 8.

Pray.

The Alliance believes wholeheartedly in the power and necessity of prayer. We cannot “Live the Call Together” unless prayer is central to all we do—as a denomination, as churches, and as individuals.

Give.

You can help build Christ’s Church around the world by donating online to the Great Commission Fund. This fund finances our missionaries, allowing them to focus on ministry rather than raising their own support.

Serve.

Is God calling you to full-time service? Do you want to experience missions firsthand by participating in a short-term missions trip? We want to help you connect your passion with God’s purpose.
