Churches
Various churches of different ethnic groups from the South of Chad (French speaking); a small Arabic speaking church, in which the WEC team is involved. We also work with the EET (église évangélique au Tchad). Right in Abéché there are two main churches: One bigger French speaking and a smaller Arabic speaking church. Both churches belong to the EET, but are very different from each other. You will have the opportunity to get to know both of them.
Particular Benefits
Living and working within a multicultural team, friendships to locals and other missionaries (from other agencies also).
Challenges
It is very hot and dry, there is a lot of dust everywhere and many mosquitoes after the rainy season. We live a very simple life-style in one of the poorest countries in the world and within an Islamic surrounding.
Leisure activities
There are not a lot of options, but you can usually go to the French military base to do sports for example. Trips to the surrounding hills are popular, as well as games, fellowship with others and doing sports with local friends.
Other activities
Apart from your work as a home-schooling teacher, we would love for you to see the work within our various projects and help, where possible. Especially, if you stay for a bit longer, we strongly encourage you to learn some Arabic. This will help you enormously in your everyday life and to establish friendships with locals.
