Trip Details: Global Health Outreach has been going to different regions of Ethiopia for ten years and it is a great joy for us to join our national partners, The Great Commission Ethiopia (Campus Crusade for Christ in Ethiopia) and serve with them in Jimma, Ethiopia. We are planning to give care to those in great need in this urban area and host a pastors conference to aid and encourage pastors in a country where 98% of the pastors have never attended bible school or seminary. We will literally be joining Paul and Luke together as we labor in the vineyard in Ethiopia. This team is a wonderful opportunity for you to invite your pastor along to teach national pastors and invest in the spiritual leadership of Ethiopia.
Damtew & Tracie Kifelew Our National Partners Campus Crusade for Christ - The Great Commission Ministry Ethiopia
This year we are going with our national partners to Jimma, a city classified as an unreached people group and the largest city in southwestern Ethiopia. It is in the Oromia Region. According to the Central Statistical Agency of Ethiopia in 2005, this town had an estimated population of 159,009. It is one of the greatest market areas in southwestern Ethiopia and on a good day in the dry season can attract 30,000 people to the area. It is a Muslim dominated city with 98% of the population being Muslim.
We have the joy of demonstrating the love and compassion of Christ to our new friends in Jimma in a very material way and to do a regional pastors and church leaders conference in the area. These activities will allow us to bridge the gap of understanding and friendship through being followers of Jesus and prayerfully develop open doors for The Great Commission Ethiopia who will follow-up while working with pastors and church planting.
What a great opportunity to serve the risen Lord and to truly demonstrate Emmanuel, God is with us, as we bring the way the truth and the life into full view of those who are without help and without hope.
We are in need of physicians, dentists, pastors, nurses, dental assistants, physical therapists, and particularly a diagnostic radiologist to do ultrasonography.
Please feel free to give me a call and be willing to pray about this mission and to see if the Lord would have you join us in serving Him. You can not out give the Giver. David said in Scripture, “I will not give unto the Lord a sacrifice that costs me nothing.” Are you ready?
