“A healthy church within walking distance of every African”

AGWM AFRICA’S VISION

“My Father’s house has many rooms: if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?”

JOHN 14:2

Africa has over 200 million unreached people who live without knowing Jesus or even a neighbor who might ever tell them the gospel. Live Dead Africa wants every one of the unreached people groups of Africa to

encounter Jesus.

Right now we see many open doors in Africa.

Let’s go together and share with our new neighbors that Jesus is preparing a place for each of them in His Father’s house.

OUR STRATEGY IS TEAM

Live Dead teams are deeply committed to each other and the unreached people we work to reach. We do life uniquely together as we serve the community, build relationships, and plant the church.

JOIN A LIVE DEAD TEAM

We have multiple ways for you to join one of our teams. Come to see and pray about lifelong service with us among the unreached of Africa.

INTENSIVES

7 to 10-day trips: You will taste the work and life among the unreached as you learn, intercede, and share the gospel alongside our team members.

INTERNSHIPS

4 to 8-week trips: You will get a deeper look into the realities of work and life on one of our teams. Explore language learning, the local culture, and church planting ministry among the unreached.

IMMERSIONS

1 to 2-year terms: Come be immersed into the life and ministry of one of our teams among the unreached. You will study language, serve the community, build relationships, discover culture, and practice missiology.

Each opportunity will give you practical ministry experience, showing you what it takes to thrive among the unreached striving to prioritize Jesus and working hard to see His church planted.

We hope you will discover your place working with us in Live Dead Africa.

DEVOTIONALS

Live Dead Africa has contributed to two books in the Live Dead devotional series.

THE LIVE DEAD JOURNAL

The original book in the series, The Live Dead Journal, contains thirty daily meditations that examine character-based mission among those unengaged by the gospel. Each day includes an informed way to pray for an unreached people in East Africa and a challenge to live and die for Jesus in order that He might be made famous among all peoples of earth.

THE

LIVE DEAD JOURNAL: HER HEART SPEAKS

Our second book, The Live Dead Journal: Her Heart Speaks, contains stories of women who daily choose to “die to self,” leaving home, country, family, and friends to live with others in hard places so Jesus can be made known. The accounts you will read in this devotional from women on the field are real, raw, and surprisingly human.
