'We must be global Christians with a global vision because our God is a global God.' -- John Stott

Welcome!

As you may have gathered from the name, this website is about Jason and Emily Atkins. We are missionaries with Youth for Christ and we are pretty crazy about a tiny little country in West Africa called Guinea-Bissau. Check out the rest of website to find more information about us, our team, what we're doing, and how you can be a part of it. Don't forget to take a look through our pictures and videos too!

What's New?

We have been in Dakar, Senegal for Thanksgiving this past week. It's been a great time to relax with the team! Our November newsletter is also available (though slightly outdated now that the container is here).

Nov 13th
The shipping container is finally here! We unloaded it yesterday and are mighty exhausted, but greatful, today. Check out the video on YouTube.

Nov 6th
We've just posted our October newsletter - spoiler alert: still no container. As always, we think we're just a few days away from opening it!
