Mennonite Church Guinea Bissau is part of a Mennonite mission presence in West Africa since 2000. The mission began first in Gambia and by 2005 the good news was being carried to Guinea Bissau by new believers from Gambia. Most of the work focuses on the Balanta people but other people groups are also part of the emerging church. The mission is sponsored by Eastern Mennonite Missions and seeks to establish an Anabaptist circle of churches in those two countries plus in the intervening territory of Senegal. Welcome to our blog page and thanks for your interest in learning more about bringing Christ to a part of Africa where the church is weak or non-existent.

Albert describes himself as a 'cobbler', that is, one who cobbles. 'Cobble together' is a term my father would occasionally use, however, not usually in a complimentary way. So Albert spends quite a bit of his time cobbling things. Like this building. It was build entirely out of found and salvaged materials. And why did he need to build it? Well, to store found and salvaged materials so he could continue to cobble.
