Abstract

Anyii are a large people group in West Africa with a distinct culture, now dispersed and separated by political boundaries with a field in church planting and ethnography that remains understudies and still begs for scholarly investigation. The purpose of this study is to help others know how they can effectively reach a people's group and thus plant churches amongst indigenous people. The gospel had made significant impact on Anyii yet some have rejected the gospel, remaining in pre-Christian spirituality or trained to serve at the mmosoe shrine. This study explains this phenomenon and shows how pre-Christian spirituality has prepared Anyii for the gospel. Anyii believe in the one true self-revealing creator-God, this research concludes that Nyamea pili is the same as Yahweh, the Father of Jesus Christ. With an interface between Christianity and Anyii primal religion, the gospel, as their creator's hope for Anyii, will be enhanced by a Bible translation and mother-tongue interpretation in Anyii. To the God who speaks all languages, Anyii now ask for him to speak directly to them in a vernacular Anyii Bible.
