Bringing Peace to CAR's Unreached

Decades of conflict have left CAR’s population — especially women and children — deeply traumatized and displaced. While a Christian majority exists on paper, geographic remoteness and ongoing insecurity leave vast communities functionally unreached. The traditional loophole is clear: it is simply unsafe to send a person into many of these zones. But a story can travel anywhere.

The ADD strategy deploys solar-powered audio kits, encrypted WhatsApp circles, and Sango-language trauma-informed content to reach displaced populations — providing spiritual healing where physical presence is impossible.

Priority target groups:

  • Displaced populations, especially traumatized women and children
  • Functionally unreached communities in remote, insecure zones
  • Sango-speaking trauma survivors

"To proclaim good news to the poor... to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives." — Isaiah 61:1 NIV

MONTORING & EVALUATION
Data-Driven Accountability

A secure digital dashboard tracks all key metrics — gospel exposures, decisions for Christ, and follow-up engagement — in real time. Security protocols are built into all data collection methods given the conflict context. Quarterly reviews drive continuous improvement, and ten short plus two documentary-style testimony videos are produced annually. All activities are assessed by the national CCC office.

Rosalie Nzinga
28 • Displaced Mother, IDP Camp Near Bangui • Women’s Circle Leader
Rosalie fled her village during an attack that killed her husband and destroyed her home. In the displacement camp, she received a solar audio kit loaded with Sango-language Bible stories. “I listened every night under my sleeping cloth because I did not want the children to hear me cry,” she says. A digital missionary connected with her through a voice note, then invited her into a WhatsApp women’s circle. Rosalie began speaking into her phone — in Sango — about grief, anger, and slowly, about forgiveness. By month three, she was helping lead her own listening group for six other women in the camp.
“I could not read the Bible. But when I heard it in Sango, in a voice like my mother’s, I knew God was speaking to me.” Rosalie’s circle has grown to eleven women and continues to meet weekly via audio voice notes.
