Senegal is a country in western Africa. Located at the westernmost point of the continent and served by multiple travel routes, Senegal is the "Gateway to Africa." Almost two-fifths of Senegal's people are Wolof, members of a highly stratified society whose traditional structure includes a hereditary nobility and a class of musicians and storytellers called griots.
The most important city in Senegal is its capital, Dakar. This lively and attractive metropolis is a popular tourist destination on the Cape Verde Peninsula along the Atlantic shore. In addition, Dakar is one of Africa's most important harbors and an economic and cultural center for West Africa.
With a majority Muslim population and many unreached tribes represented in the metropolis, there is an excellent opportunity for Dakar to become a harbor city for the gospel and a gateway for all of West Africa.
