  • Outreach work in the locality
  • Providing resources, particularly Bibles and Reformed literature to the local people in the native language
  • Providing emergency/basic medical aid to those in need

The Mission Complex

The building work of a large fenced mission compound is now completed. We are thankful to the Lord for giving James Gudgeon the vision, skills and resources; to turn the empty field which the Lord had led him to; into a beautiful and suitable base for the work of the gospel. It comprises of two missionary bungalows, a large church building which accommodates the 600 children and youths who gather each Lord’s Day morning, a gatehouse, workers accommodation, medical room, bible study classroom, library/study area. It is self sufficient for water and solar electric.
