Greetings!  AOF Missions invites you on a West African Missions Adventure that will change your life.  Does that sound like a bold statement?  Well, relax.  We have it on good authority that this trip has been commissioned by the highest authority in the land (or any other land for that matter), the King of Kings.   Over two thousand years ago, He commissioned every believer of every race and every generation throughout all time until He returns, to be about the Father’s business of making disciples of all nations.  Now it is your turn and your time!

April 27-May 24, 2006 Entire Trip.

The entire trip is a little over three weeks, but you may choose to come for only one week.  Please note that each week has a different purpose, as well.  As soon as we receive your completed Short-term Missions Application, Participation Form, and Application Fee, we will take care of setting up all the other arrangements for you.  Remember that check-in time for an international flight is at least two hours before scheduled departure. 

Please understand that this is a mission trip.  It is not a vacation or a leisure trip.  You will be working very hard, and the accommodations may not be what you are used to at home.  We ask you to accept whatever conditions confront you with grace, good humor and the love of Jesus.  Your coming will be such a blessing to those to whom you minister.  These brothers and sisters work in extremely difficult conditions and having a visit from Americans does so much to lift their burden and ease their sense of isolation.  Just your presence reminds them that God has not forgotten their labor of love, and they are not alone.

As soon as we receive your application forms, along with the $100.00/per person application fee, we will send you a more personalized package that will cover your part of the trip.  It will include suggested items to take with you, some useful French phrases,  general information about the country, suggestions on appropriate attire for both men and women, and some cultural do’s and don’ts.  You will also receive a projected ground itinerary, and what you will be doing each day.
