Long-term Missionaries—Rafiki Overseas Staff (ROS)

ROS are Rafiki’s career (long-term) missionaries who provide direction, supervision, training, and teaching at Rafiki Villages.

“For ‘everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’ But how are they to call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?” (Romans 10:14).

– Those with a heart so full of God's love that it must be expressed through love and service to others
