Ghana Formerly known as the “Gold Coast,” this beautiful country provides vast opportunities for ministry, both to and from, the local people. With a rich yet tumultuous history of both Christian and Islamic influences, Ghana is positioned as a nation which is partially immersed in the 10/40 window. The southern half of the country has enjoyed considerable religious evangelism yet still remains a place in need of discipleship and holistic outreach. Ministries in Ghana range from the urban city landscape to the rural village life. Medical work, literacy training and children’s ministries are prominent in the small village of Ankaase or at Lake Bosumtwi; leadership training is taught in the city of Kumasi; evangelistic outreach teams often travel to the primarily-Muslim North. With such a range of ministries available, mission teams offer a wealth of opportunities to explore your individual passions and build relationships with nationals.
