While Americans focus on the upcoming election, the South Sudanese Church continues to pray for their own government as South Sudan postpones its elections again. For the last 14 years, elections have been continually postponed amidst a civil war and ongoing violence. Now, with their first election since independence delayed for two more years, the church is praying for a brighter future. Pastor John*, leader of Streams of Living Water in South Sudan, recently led a four-day

An American reflects on a typical night for a Jesus Film Rider OneWay writer and Africa advocate, Kate Sperry, shares her reflection on seeing OneWay's Jesus Film Riders work up close: A glimmer of light caught my eye as I strained to see through the darkness of an African night. Our fearless guide — a Jesus Film Rider — circled back to our car, and was waving his arms to ensure we could still see him on his motorbike. He led the way to a village eagerly awaiting his arrival

How one couple is bringing God's Word to the world Thirty-nine years ago, Pete and Beth Beckman fell in love with each other on a mission trip. They went to Bolivia with a team from Anderson University and still remember building playground equipment for the local children. Today, Pete uses his background as a brilliant computer scientist and Beth uses her administrative and technological skills to create a way for unreached people to hear the Word of God. Pete, Beth and thei

Missionary school trains Africans to reach unreached Harriet was working as a typist, but her passion for missions and lost souls left her wanting more for her life in West Africa. When she heard about OneWay Africa’s Livingstone School of Missions, she decided to enroll in the program for young adults with a passion to advance the gospel. As part of her one-year training, she served a predominantly animistic community in a remote part of North Ghana. Her journey to this unre

Help dig a well to quench physical and spiritual thirst The people of North Ghana are thirsty. Young girls and women spend hours each day walking along hot, dusty roads to find water for their families to drink. They balance large buckets of this precious resource on their heads, transporting it for miles, only to do it again the next day. So as Muslims work to spread their religion, they offer villagers the one thing they crave the most: water. In exchange for the gift of bo

Girls raised at House of Hope helping most vulnerable in South Sudan When three girls (pictured above) arrived at the House of Hope, staff described them as “tiny little girls with a lost look in their eyes.” Now, they have finished secondary school and their senior exams and have joined the staff as teaching assistants for the new Hope and Future Children Center, a school and care center for some of the most vulnerable children in South Sudan. For much of their lives, staff

Jesus Film missionaries press on to reach the unreached It was after 9 p.m. in northern Ghana when Clement Quaicoe bounced into the clearing on his motorbike, where more than 150 people had trekked from the nearby Komba village to watch The Jesus Film in their heart language. The only artificial light on the cool, clear night came from the projector screen set up in front of the crowd. For some of the villagers, it was the first time they had seen any type of movie and may ha

"We needed it yesterday!" pastor explains The hundreds of SD cards piled on a desk at the OneWay Africa office look like nothing more than a stack of electronic data. But Pastor Musah Abdulai* knows this tiny piece of technology has the power to transform the lives of one of the largest and most staunchly Muslim people groups in North Ghana. Embedded on the cards provided by OneWay’s BiblePlus team is God’s Word translated into the Fulani language, along with sermons, stories

OneWay’s Gospel Advance partners with OneWay Africa He may be called a “walking Bible,” but this month, OneWay’s JP Lindsey rode on a motorbike with a Jesus Film Rider to bring the Word of God to northern Ghana. This was the continuation of a partnership between OneWay’s Gospel Advance and OneWay Africa. JP Lindsey also took students with OneWay Africa’s Livingstone School of Missions to do outreach in the marketplace of Accra. A group of four students approached a man who sa

BiblePlus October trip will finish recordings, train BiblePlus missionaries The mission to create audio Bible content in the heart language of unreached people in Africa will advance in several exciting ways this month thanks to the work of OneWay’s BiblePlus team members who depart for Ghana today.

OneWay Africa to raise gospel workers to cross borders After completing a three-month course in missions, six students have chosen to continue with OneWay Africa’s year-long Livingstone School of Missions program by entering the mission field for the next six months. Some will serve in their home countries, while others might take the gospel to specific unreached people groups. They will raise their own support and seek to confirm God’s calling on their lives, all while activ

Ray Mensah's journey to Christ Today, OneWay Africa works to raise up young people as the next generation of African missionaries. Ray Mensah, director of OneWay Africa, was 23 years old when he gave his life to Christ. His story is just one example of what God can do in the life of someone wholeheartedly committed to Him. For years, Ray Mensah’s distrust of Christianity led him to want nothing to do with it and even to write stories for a leading African newspaper condemning

Activating Egyptian church planters in the Arab world To most of the world, Egypt is a land of history and culture, making it a popular tourist destination. But to Streams of Living Water, Egypt is a “sleeping giant” that can make a tremendous impact toward taking the gospel to the Arab world. OneWay’s Streams ministry is helping to awaken that sleeping giant with its annual Mobilization Conference. More than 500 believers gathered in late August for the conference, including
