Burundi - Chelsea Gates

Welcome to my partner website with International Networx. With your help, we can impact the nation of Burundi in East Africa where God has called me and Josiah to invest our lives. Our ministry networks with a variety of churches and ministries, focusing on the growing population of refugees pouring into this impoverished nation.

Serving: Burundi is facing a major influx of refugees from Congo, with over 100,000 people needing help. I am organizing teams to serve in refugee camps and share the love of Jesus.

Discipleship: My team and volunteers, aged 17-30, host weekly Bible Trivia nights, studies, and worship at my home. We aim to nurture them and extend our outreach to surrounding villages.

Children's Ministry: In various villages, we start children's ministry focusing on teaching the Word through skits, songs, and memorization. We provide food and clothing as funds allow.

Bible Days: Many local villagers can't read or afford Bibles, relying solely on local pastors to share the Word, and unfortunately there are a lot of gaps. We host reading days and distribute Bibles as funds allow to those who need them. 

Your gifts help us to achieve these goals. Please give generously and follow here for regular updates on our progress. Thank you!
