Người dân của bộ lạc Sereer ở Sénégal, Tây Phi, sống trong một nền văn hóa cổ xưa có lịch sử chìm đắm trong Thuyết vật linh, Voodoo và thờ quỷ.

Cuộc sống ở đây thật khó khăn, ít có cơ hội học hỏi hoặc phát triển. Hầu hết đàn ông nuôi các loại cây trồng đơn giản hoặc dê để kiếm sống ít ỏi.

They pray five times a day, they fast during Ramadan, They give to the poor (though they are incredibly poor themselves). It seems they so desperately want to please God, but they don.t know God because they don.t know the truth about who Jesus is. Since 2004 short-term missionaries Alton and Barbara Lanier have made many trips to Senegal, each time ...
