CC Ministries (Canada) supports the ministries of Great Lakes Outreach in the country of Burundi in Central Africa. In terms of poverty & development, Burundi ranks as one of the world’s neediest countries. Its 14 million people are still in the early stages of recovering from decades of internal turmoil and strife.
But the Lord has many people in Burundi, and His faithful servants are making an eternal difference there. Great Lakes Outreach (GLO) is a network of international friends committed to Burundi’s transformation. GLO “identifies, equips and empowers the best local leaders of passion, integrity, gifting and vision for the transformation of Burundi, bottom-up and top-down.”
CC Ministries collaborates with Great Lakes Outreach to support the ministries of over 25 partners who work with the poorest and most marginalized communities in Burundi to bring about sustainable and strategic change. Visionary local leaders are transforming Burundi through education, sport, business, healthcare and more, bringing hope to thousands of the most vulnerable. GLO has identified a network of exceptional Christian leaders in Burundi now representing multiple projects. We help these partners to develop, enabling them to increase their self-sufficiency. The results are exciting and encouraging despite Burundi’s many challenges.
Despite limited resources, Great Lakes Outreach continues to fulfill its calling. And the Lord is blessing. But so much more could be done with some help from outside friends! (Learn more about Great Lakes Outreach on their US Website and their UK Website.)
