Use your God-given talents to serve in a Rafiki Village

Has God called you to be a missionary in Africa?

At Rafiki Villages, there are countless opportunities to use your God-given gifts. You can serve for a short season or a lifetime, and in doing so, make an eternal impact in the lives of people in need. As you pour into them, God will also transform you. One thing is certain: you will never leave the same.

God's Word at Work

Rafiki has ten Training Villages across Africa—in countries like Ethiopia, Ghana, and Kenya—serving through six key programs: Bible Study, Education, Teacher Training, Orphan Care, Outreach, and Widows.

Many have answered God’s call to join the mission. Maybe he’s calling you!

Take a short-term trip to one of the ten Rafiki Villages!
