For centuries in southern Africa, Zulu chiefs have called together their people to discuss important issues at meetings called indabas (in-dah-bahs).
We are hosting our own Indabas to discuss an issue we consider extremely important -- the lostness of over 50% of the people groups of Sub-Saharan Africa.
By attending an Indaba, you can:
- Identify unreached and unengaged people groups.
- Learn how to connect with IMB missionaries working among Sub-Saharan African peoples.
- Hear what God is doing through churches like yours.
- Discover ways your church can have an impact.
- Obtain resources and information to undergird your missions efforts.
- Network with others who are engaging the lost.

Base Camps
Base Camps are training and networking conferences for churches who’ve already committed to serve in Sub-Saharan Africa. They’re great opportunities to hear testimonies of God’s work and pick up practical suggestions and new ministry techniques. Typical workshop seminars include: discipleship, leadership training; cultural insights; and more.
