4000-623-Ragsdale, Rod and Angelika

TAGLINE: Leadership Training and Community Development

In 1990, we started our ministries in West Africa – initially separated from each other as singles. God brought us together in 1999 and in 2000 we started our joint service in Cote d’Ivoire.

OUR FOCUS IN MINISTRY
Leadership Training and Community Development

We work with a church organization with about 500 local churches. There is a shortage of trained pastors. Rod has been helping with the training and education of pastors at the Bethel Bible Institute (IBB) in Korhogo in recent years. Angelika has taught the women of future pastors in hygiene and health as well as spiritual growth and French.

Wildlife Protection and Development

We are also concerned about environmental protection and development. We want to raise awareness among the people of the North to protect their land from the extinction of wild animals and the excessive clearing of the tropical forest, as well as helping them to get a good education.

Prayer Focus
– For the Bible School team in Korhogo: students and teachers. The new school year begins at the beginning of October at the Bible School and ends in June.
– For dignity for West African Women and Girls and their training and follow up.

Our Perspectives
– Further education and teaching of Bible school students men and women
– A Creation Care and development project in the northeast of Cote d’Ivoire.
