By partnering with Christians in the United States and working alongside the nationals in Ghana, the Nichols share the love of God through compassion ministry. Building schools, digging water wells, orphanage work, and helping rescue children sold into slavery are the means in which we do this.
In answer to God’s specific call on our lives we are to work in Ghana, West Africa. Our heart’s desire is for every person to experience what we, Christians, preach. To not just hear about it but experience the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit. Through the power of the Holy Spirit at work in and through us we are sure that we are to be in Ghana at this time in our lives.
As missionaries with The Assemblies of God we committed to a lifetime of service. We are accountable to the Lord first and foremost and then our supporters; this is why we offer to send updates on a regular basis as well as invite our supporters to come and see who and what they are investing in.
We preach about a good God, but they live in a world where evil seems triumphant. We preach Our ministry is built on the model of the incarnational ministry of Jesus.  is the model which we live by. Our concern is to seek positive change Since Jesus is our model and since his mission was to proclaim good news to the poor and minister to the needs of oppressed peoples everywhere, our mission today is to be understood in the same or similar terms. Rather than community development, we ask you to pray that the work we do will be transformational development. Transformational development reflects our concern for seeking positive change in whole of human life materially, socially and spiritually primarily through our expanded Christian witness.
Our ministry finds us working alongside those in the north who rarely, if ever, receive any outside help. As we were moved by the Lord, we committed to being their voice; pastors, most of whom make a measly five dollars each month, who feel forgotten, need to know they are not.
Building schools and digging bore holes for water are the means by which we share healing and hope; physically as well as spiritually. For some time now Iran-supported Muslim missionaries have been promising villages in the north that they will build schools and bring water in the name of Allah. Yet, it is us, Christian missionaries, who are building schools and bringing water in the Name of Jesus.
Through this type of ministry we’ve witnessed hundreds of Muslims confess Jesus.  Our school, once only twenty, now runs over 500 and continues to grow. Recently God moved in the heart of village chief, an idol worshipper, to give us land in the middle of what they call a “Muslim stronghold”.
Help us build a school on this land and God will fill it with children. Help us dig a well and the whole Muslim community will proclaim, as their leaders did during our school dedication in Basyonde, “We now see that your God truly cares.”
