Know Sierra Leone

Sierra Leone is a country on the west coast of Africa, bordered by Guinea, Liberia, and the Atlantic Ocean.

The capital city is Freetown, which was founded as a settlement for freed enslaved Africans. English is the official language, alongside widely spoken local languages such as Krio.

Sierra Leone is rich in natural resources, especially diamonds, gold, and minerals. The economy also depends on agriculture, fishing, and mining. Despite its resources, the country faces challenges such as poverty and infrastructure development.

The country experienced a brutal civil war from 1991 to 2002, which had a major impact on its people and economy. It also faced difficulties during the Ebola virus disease outbreak in West Africa.

Sierra Leone is known for its diverse cultures, tropical beaches, and resilient population. Overall, it is recognized for its natural resources, history, and ongoing efforts toward development and stability.

MISSIONAL VISION
Reaching Sierra Leone’s Unreached

Sierra Leone’s rich oral culture, a Muslim majority, and a generation of post-war youth create a unique but pressing missional context. Traditional missions have long struggled to penetrate Muslim-majority communities in the north and along the coast, and women in low-literacy, high-vulnerability zones have remained almost entirely unreached. The legacy of civil conflict lingers in the form of spiritual despair that the church has not fully addressed.

The ADD strategy trains 200 youth leaders in mobile media evangelism, launches 40 short-film campaigns via WhatsApp and radio, and operates 25 women’s radio devotional programmes with trauma-healing messages and solar audio Bibles in shelters and health centres.

Priority target groups: Muslim communities in the north and along the coast · Urban youth in Freetown and regional capitals · Women in low-literacy, high-vulnerability zones

“I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some of them.” — 1 Corinthians 9:22 NIV

Aminata Bangura
19 · Student, Freetown · Youth Digital Missionary
Aminata grew up in a Muslim home in east Freetown where faith was practice without conversation — prayers at set times, fasting in Ramadan, no questions permitted. A WhatsApp film clip in Krio — a short drama about a young woman navigating family expectations and personal identity — appeared in a group chat. “Someone shared it as a joke,” Aminata says. “But I watched it alone and it wasn't funny. It was my life.” A digital missionary connected with her through a follow-up message. Over five months of Krio voice notes, Bible stories, and one-on-one chat conversations, Aminata came to faith. She told her mother the week after. “She cried,” Aminata says. “But she is still my mother.”
“The radio saved more than my body — it healed my heart. The phone finished the work.” Aminata now creates short Krio gospel content for her own WhatsApp network of 34 followers.
