Pastor Tim and Beth Heiney, LCMS missionaries, serve in West Africa. Pastor Tim provides leadership-training seminars throughout West Africa and his role includes teaching, baptizing adults and children in various villages, and providing support to vicars in those villages. He also visits the hospital every Sunday and prays for the patients there. Tim, other missionaries, and local leaders whom he’s trained are working hard to share God’s Word through a series of videos and Bible studies. The Heineys see growth, maturity, and leadership among these faithful Guineans.

The Heineys have been involved in foreign missions since 1984, serving in several countries in Africa. Since 2014, they have served with Global Lutheran Outreach and are presently in the country of Guinea.

Please pray for the Heiney’s ministry as it is very difficult to preach the Gospel when Islam is the major religion and when the government is oppressive and cities are often under siege from Muslim extremists. Also continue to pray for good health for Tim and Beth. Beth is recovering well but had to spend extensive time in the US recently because of a serious accident involving her spine. As Beth stated in a recent newsletter, “The devil isn’t taking a break this summer, so we need to keep praying too!”
