Mike and Nikki Howell
Current Priorities
We have completed our two-year apprenticeship in Senegal and will return for our first four-year term beginning in September 2023. We will continue to study language and culture and discern our future involvement in discipleship, church planting, and access ministries, such as literacy development and sports outreach.
Least-Reached People Group
We work with a unique groups of LRPG’s called the Fulani and Wolof. You can learn more about the Fulani and Wolof by visiting our LRPG page.
Vision
We want to glorify God by bringing access to Jesus for the people of Senegal by helping to mobilize a reproducing church-planting movement amongst the Fulani and Wolof.
Bio
Mike made a commitment to Christ when he was growing up in Congo with his parents who were serving as missionaries. He responded to God’s calling to overseas ministry by attending Toccoa Falls College and studying Cross-Cultural Studies.
Nikki grew up in a Christian home and became a believer at a young age. She felt called to missions as a child and then renewed this calling during university while involved with campus ministry. 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 is a passage that encourages Mike and Nikki to be ambassadors of Christ to the lost.
Mike and Nikki’s calling to missions was affirmed during a vision trip and subsequent apprenticeship to Senegal. They will begin their first term in September 2023.

Prayer Requests
Pray for our first term as we pursue language and culture learning proficiency. Pray that God would guide us to the ministries where He is already on the move. Pray for our three young sons that they will thrive in this environment for God’s glory.
Pray that the Wolof and Fulani believers will be filled with the Holy Spirit as they boldly live out their faith and share the Good News of Jesus Christ. Pray also that God would raise up Christ-like leaders in these new churches.
