It's always great to have reminders lying around to pray for the Songhai & it's even better when they are FREE!

West African Storying Cloth
Need a large visual reminder to pray for the Songhai? Maybe a tool for teaching others about the Songhai? For a very low cost, you can order your very own Storying Cloth, much like the ones we use on the field to teach the illiterate Songhai people about God's Great Story!
