Benin - Aja People

"If you are ever inclined to pray for a missionary, do it at once, wherever you are. Perhaps she may be in great peril at the moment. Once I had to deal with a crowd of warlike men in the compound, and I got strength to face them because I felt that some one was praying for me just then." Mary Slessor

In 1996 a team of missionaries begin ministry among the Aja people of southern Benin.
