These three sub-groups of the Baga live on Botini Island, which can be reached by boat from Kamsar. Because of the isolated location, the Baga are still without access to the Gospel. Life on the island is very difficult. There is a lack of potable water due to the fact that the hand dug wells tend to collapse when heavy rains come. During the dry season from March to May, many of the wells that have survived dry up. An Engaging Church could take the challenge to take Living water to the Baga.
