Niger
The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) began its relationships
in Niger more recently than in some other African countries.
Our engagement in Niger involves ministry through mission
personnel and through our partner
church relationship. The PC(USA) joins its partner in
Niger in a holistic approach to ministry that includes education
and leadership development, health ministries, community
development, evangelism and new church development.
Although 98 percent of the population is Muslim, Niger has remained a secular state and has rejected outside pressure to become a Muslim state. The Christians in Niger have a vibrant faith and ministry to their country as they strive to build the church and the country of Niger. |
