Keith & Melanie Haensel – Niamey, Niger

In 2018, after much prayer, Keith and Melanie both heard God’s call for them to begin overseas work. The preparation process with The Christian and Missionary Alliance was encouraging, and through that process they began to sense that Niger may be where God was leading them. At first, they prayed that God would either provide somewhere else or change their hearts about the possibility of going to Niger. God slowly, but miraculously, built not only a willingness, but a great excitement to go to Niger.
