WHO


Open to Everyone

Come. Preach the Word.

Join ShareHim as we partner in evangelism with fellow Adventist brothers and sisters in the amazing West African nation of Côte d’Ivoire. There, YOU will have the privilege of being the guest speaker for a nine-day evangelistic campaign held by a local church.

 

 

Lives will be changed. Including yours.

As you share your faith, you’ll experience God’s power at work in your life and in the lives of others. What’s more, you’ll return to your home mission field more grounded in the word and more passionate about sharing Jesus.

 

 

Never preached before? No problem.

Many ShareHim speakers are first-timers. We’ll give you ready-to-preach sermons, and one of our experienced trip managers will be there to help from beginning to end. All that’s required is the power of the Holy Spirit and your willingness to share the good news.

 

 

God is calling YOU to share Him. How will you answer?

Wherever you are, God is calling you to share Him with those around you—perhaps even in Côte d’Ivoire.
Will you answer the call?
