The Spirit of the Lord enables Me to preach good news to the poor, to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to those captive to bondage, to recover sight to the blind, to set at liberty those oppressed, downtrodden and burdened with heaviness, and to proclaim the year of acceptance with God."
_Jesus of Nazareth

We continue to fund micro-business projects in poverty stricken villages in West Africa, and support projects which educate and feed children who have become part of the prison system. Our most recent contributions are being used to help translate the gospels into the local language. The non-governmental organizations we partner with have several community projects which continue to grow and impact many lives. |
| This country is in desperate need of quality education and rehabilitation programs. One of the many opportunities to evangelize through service projects are the Women's Sewing Cooperative. The making and sewing of textiles is one of the few opportunities for women in this muslim society to provide for themselves and their families. It is a blessing to have nine students graduate from the sewing classes who are starting a co-op of their own with the help of a micro-credit loan. |

Ben's last visit brought him out to the villages to meet with local believers. While in the city he worked to distribute gospel cassettes, shared with university students, and taught imprisoned children who were part of the Juvenile Detention Center Project. |
