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.

Saturday

Joe & Ruth Miller with their daughter Francine, Seymour, Mo. Joe & Ruth were my gracious hosts for the weekend of June 19 & 20th. They are deeply involved in overseas ministry in Nigeria & Romania. I was able to attend two services at their church and I shared my slides with their family group. Joe operates a farm and has a construction firm with two of his sons.
