Stephanie Mensah is a full-time missionary with Fire & Fragrance South Africa (FFSA), focused on serving vulnerable women and children through the ministry of Woven, crafting strategic sustainable development programs for impoverished communities, and pioneering Gospel initiatives to the Unreached. Stephanie is also pursuing her Masters in Counseling and Care (MACC) from Faith Seminary.
I first served with YWAM Circuit Riders and Fire + Fragrance from 2012-2015, building the Northeast Campus Circuit of Circuit Riders and leading outreaches to the Himalayas and Southern Africa before going on to work with Lou Engle and TheCall in global prayer initiatives and resourcing houses of prayer on university campuses. Rejoining Circuit Rider staff in 2019, I was blessed to be part of pioneering Black Voices, a Circuit Rider movement focused on catalyzing young Black leaders into missions! I taught in the Black Voices training tracks of CRX (Circuit Riders’ Discipleship Training School), mentored students and served as a “house mom” in CR discipleship houses, planned and led nationwide tours to university campuses through Black Voices and Carry the Love, and taught in CR Summer Schools in America and abroad. I was commissioned out of CR to rejoin Fire and Fragrance/YWAM Kona in September of 2024, with the intention of building a longterm team to plant in the region of Oceania. After a wildcard outreach to South Africa in Spring 2025, however, I surrendered my prior plans and moved to South Africa, joining the team of FFSA in Potchefstroom! God is on the move across Africa, and we get to be part of catalyzing disciple-making movements that transform all 54 African nations and send labourers from Africa to the Ends of the Earth. For such a time as this!!
WILL YOU JOIN “THE DREAM TEAM”?!
I would love for you to join The Dream Team — my team of committed monthly partners — who, through prayer and financial investment, enable me to give my life for the Gospel to saturate the globe! It is a tremendous honour to be entrusted with this portion of work in fulfilling the Great Commission, and I cannot do it alone; your financial partnership is absolutely vital to the Gospel going forth and I ask that you would prayerfully consider sowing into these endeavours! TOGETHER we can see Jesus Christ receive His Reward, that like it says in Malachi 1:11, “from the Rising of the Sun to the place where it sets, [His] Name would be made famous”! Amen!
