Why Niger Needs Hope
One of the poorest countries in the world, the average individual in Niger makes less than $400 per year. The region is heavily Islamic, and a mere 0.3% of the population are Christians. The vast majority of people in Niger are Muslim. Christians number fewer than 100,000 people.
We work with Nigerien leaders to produce Christian media in eight languages, broadcast on local FM radio and distributed on SD cards that can be listened to on mobile phones. The follow-up leaders gather new believers and seekers into small groups and establish churches as the groups grow. Niger is one of the least reached countries in the world, and yet we are seeing amazing stories of salvation.

Christ Alone
A year ago, a resident in Niger informed Words of Hope’s Hausa language producer that he was suspicious of our Christian programming. As a Muslim, he expected to find much of the content of our Hausa programs offensive. He was angry at the thought that local programming might be attacking the majority Muslim faith of the region.
Prayer Requests
- Pray that the message sent over the radio will find hearts prepared for accepting the Lord.
- Pray for security and safety concerns after anti-Christian violence related to Islamic extremism.
- Pray for efforts to start listener clubs, an important step in further evangelization.
“Glory be to God for his faithfulness in his people’s lives. We are very grateful for your concerns and constant prayers for Niger people.” — Nigerien radio producer
