Introduction / History
The Mogofins are subsistence farmers who grow rice, peanuts, cassava, and sweet potatoes. Palm oil is a key commodity for local trade. Family inheritance is tied to land ownership and orchards. In the marketplace, they sell their surplus produce, baked goods, baskets, wooden goods, and ceramics.
What Are Their Lives Like?
Most Mogofins are Muslims who take their Islamic duties seriously. They distribute food to the poor or give them money. They crave blessings from Allah.
What Are Their Beliefs?
Mogofins require sufficient medical clinics to address their immediate healthcare needs. West Africa is short of reliable drinking water, and water is sometimes inadequate for irrigation.
What Are Their Needs?
Pray for their physical needs to be met and that they will give thanks and honor to God the Father.
Pray for the Holy Spirit to speak to Mogofin elders through dreams and visions, preparing them to fall in love with Jesus Christ.
Pray for Mogofin disciples who will disciple others.
