BURUNDI
About the size of Maryland, Burundi is a small nation of coffee and tea farmers. It sits along the northeast shore of Lake Tanganyika and is marked by a mountainous, fertile countryside. Often known as Rwanda’s “twin,” Burundi is mostly populated by the rivaling Hutu and Tutsi people.
Despite ethnic tensions, the 1990’s became a time of revival and growth for evangelical Christianity that continues today. Still, an estimated 17,000 Burundians have never heard the Gospel and live in communities without any church or missionary presence.
e3 Partners is working to ensure that a thriving local church exists in every community throughout Burundi. We are equipping existing believers and training local pastors to identify unreached communities and share the Gospel effectively. As people come to faith in Christ, we are establishing small groups that help them take the next steps in their spiritual growth and serve as the seeds for new churches.

JOINING GOD'S MISSION
We are ambassadors for Christ…We plead on Christ’s behalf, “Be reconciled to God.” 2 Corinthians 5:20
FROM MICHIGAN TO THE NATIONS - What does that look like?
- 10 million people
- over 68% lost
- 300,000+ people from Unreached People Groups (less than 2% believers) within two hours of my home
- 2 million people
- Over 99.5% lost
MY ROLE
While I care for Shiloh (who has special needs) and Reuben, I will serve and train from my home base with the goal of identifying, equipping and sending believers God is calling.
I am praying for many experienced and committed laborers for the people of Michigan and SE Asia. Along the way, it will be a privilege to come alongside believers with vision for other locations as well!
YOUR ROLE
Thank you in advance for your generosity. May the Lord bless you and give you great joy in the testimonies of what He does!
