Burkina Faso, Africa

Burkina Faso
We believe that God loves the world.
We believe that God created ALL people to live TOGETHER.
We believe that those who have in this world, should live to help those who do not.
We believe that people should understand that the world we live in is bigger than what we think. We believe that once we have seen... we become responsible.

Jesus commanded us to take his message to the ends of the Earth. Pine Ridge Church, along with a network of other churches, will be playing our part in a country called Burkina Faso, Africa. Working with, and through the local church we hope to use our abilities, resources, and people to engage in helping change the domains of a society. We will be strategically working with the church, a local school, building water wells and helping build and plant churches for an unreached people group known as the Pou-Gou-li people. We have formed a partnership with two other churches that share a passion to reach Burkina Faso, Africa.  We have made a decison to compile our resources to reach Burkino Faso with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ.

The Need:
Burkina Faso has the 2nd lowest literacy rate in the world
1 out of every 3.4 children do not make it to age 10
3,000 kids die a day from malaria
Those who eat 1 time a day are considered “middle class”
1 water well provides clean drinking water for 500 - 1,000 people
Whatever religion that is placed in a village becomes the center of influence
