NORTH AFRICA OVERVIEW

Live out your Great Commission calling inside the 10/40 Window among one of the largest Frontier People Groups in North Africa while you share Jesus with your neighbors and equip, encourage, and mobilize young adults to tell the story of Jesus where it has never been told. You will live in a beautiful city, full of history, cultural diversity, and a great opportunity for the advance of the Gospel. The people here are friendly, welcoming, and proud of their history, culture, and traditions and more than 99% of them are Muslim. You will learn their language, culture, and history, and build relationships with them to share life and the hope of the Gospel.

Our first priority is to mobilize the next generation of workers going to the 1040 window to go and successfully live among those who have never heard the Gospel.  Through highly intentional investment in our students, they acquire tools to aid them in becoming adaptable and resilient, due to successfully navigating our 9-month program with Café 1040. 

Our second priority is to be the fragrance of the Father in the Muslim country where we reside to any local friends and neighbors, we have the honor of meeting.
