- We are missionaries with SIM in Senegal ministering among the Wolof people through Chronological Bible storying, prayer and projects.
Storying in a village
The Wolof
In Senegal, the Wolof form an ethnic plurality with 40% of the population self-identifying as Wolof
SIM Senegal Team
SIM is a community of God's people who delight to worship Him and are passionate about the Gospel, seeking to fulfil the mission of Jesus Christ in the world.
Children's ministries
A number of village children have sat under the teaching of God's Word for years. A few of them have made a commitment to follow Christ.
Mosquito net distribution
Malaria kills over 3 000 children each day in Sub-Sahara Africa
Short term teams
Short termers enjoy experiencing a new culture and being a blessing.
Missionary Kids
MK life is rich in many different experiences.
Pounding millet
Women and children spend up to three hours a day pounding millet to prepare their meals.
Composting Project
The dry arid landscape is a huge challenge to the subsistent farmers.
Deep wells
Drawing water from a 90m well is just part of daily chores out in the village.
