Communities where Christ is least known

Muslim people of northern Ghana

The Dagomba and Sisaala people of northern Ghana are predominantly Muslim. SIM Ghana partners with churches encouraging one-to-one discipling relationships amongst these people groups, in order that many might hear the gospel and grow in their understanding of God’s Word. More and more churches amongst the Dagomba and Sisaala are holding mid-week children’s clubs, enabling many Muslim children to hear God’s good news. Broadcasts of The Way of Righteousness on local radio in both the Sisaali and Dagbani languages continue to be well received.

The Fulani

The Fulani people in Ghana are another predominantly Muslim group. As migrants from other parts of West Africa, they have never had a recognised homeland in Ghana. They live in scattered settlements on the outskirts of villages and are often treated as outsiders and viewed with suspicion and hostility. In the last year, SIM Ghana has welcomed three missionary families to work amongst the Fulani. Through language and culture learning, they are building relationships of trust and friendship.
