Not to belabor a small point, but most of these missionaries are not “sent” per se, except by God. They choose to go, as they feel led by the Lord.
I will be returning to Sierra Leone in about two years, and God specifically set Freetown before me. No board is sending me, but they will watch over my finances while I am there.
“I will be returning to Sierra Leone in about two years, and God specifically set Freetown before me.”
I am not certain if firearms are allowed foreigners in Sierra Leone, but I note from your home page that you and Mrs. are not un-acquainted with self defense. You also have experience with Islam so do not have a false liberal understanding of their objectives and abilities.
That said, may God watch over and protect you and your family!
