Sam and Derrick are Ugandans, both involved in mission work. Sam serves as the team leader for Global Link Afrika (GLA), creating awareness – especially in Uganda and East Africa – of mission issues, creating platforms for training, equipping those who have an interest in mission, and working in partnership with the church to send Ugandans and East Africans to serve in places of need. Derrick is also part of the GLA family. He has been through a Kairos (mission mobilisation) course, has done some mission work, and is currently preparing to serve long term in North Africa.
As the church in Africa has seen tremendous growth and a burgeoning interest in mission, we interview them about what role there is for western missionaries to play on the mission field in Africa.
