Persecution has become a primary context of missions in Africa, and is here to stay," writes our friends at AfriGO Magazine.
AfriGO seeks to encourage the African Church in world missions. Recently, they focused their attention on wrestling with persecution and missions.
In their free magazine, you can read articles from African missionaries and gain a greater insight into the conversations happening on the African continent and beyond, such as:
