Indaba Logo

For centuries in southern Africa, Zulu chiefs have called together their people to discuss important issues at meetings called indabas (in-dah-bahs).

Photo: Indaba attendeesWe 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.

Upcoming Indabas

Engaging Church Forum- 11AM EST, Tuesday, March 13th - Online

The forum will now be offered via the web once a month (2nd Wednesday of each month).
Register online: http://www.regonline.com/SSAForum_0312

In 2005, the first "Engaging Church" completed one of what would be many trips to an unreached people group in southern Senegal. Since that time, over 150 churches have joined the effort to strategically engage people groups in Sub Sahara Africa who had yet to hear with the Gospel. Through your persistence, sacrifice, and obedience, indigenous, reproducible churches have been planted. It is time to gather together via the web to not only celebrate what God is doing among your people and your church, but it is also a great time to share with one another about our experiences. This forum (the first of six 2012 Forum webinars) will begin at 11am EST.
