Mission Commissioning at The Peoples Church

This past Sunday, June 2, 2019 The Peoples Church invited our team along with a number of other short term missionaries for Mission Commissioning during their Sunday services. 

As we prepare to go in less than 2 months we ask and thank you for your continued support and prayers!

Prayer Requests:

  1. For healing and health in the name of Jesus for the communities that our team will be ministering to.
  2. For unity with the Mully’s team. That they would be encouraged and strengthened by the team’s presence.

Team Upendo

“Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us together in perfect harmony”
– Colossians 3:14 (NLT)

Upendo means “love”.  This summer, a group of 49 volunteers will be joining together  to share God’s love by running free medical, dental, optometry clinics to serve the children of Mully Children’s Family (MCF) and people from the villages surrounding MCF.  In addition to the health clinics, we will also be conducting leadership training and participating in special projects to service the needs of MCF.

Mully Children’s Family is a Kenyan Christian humanitarian organization founded and run by Dr. Charles Mulli. They seek out, rescue and rehabilitate children from the streets of Kenya, who have been abandoned, orphaned, often abused and infected or affected by HIV/AIDS.  MCF cares for over 2500+ children at a time and has helped over 10,000 people over the last 29 years.

In the short time since our team was assembled, it has been amazing to see God’s hand at work in bringing us together.  Initially we were 2 teams.  One team consisted of 22 people with 2 dentists and 2 optometrists, but lacking in medical doctors and pharmacists.  The other team was a group of medical doctors and pharmacists, with no dentists or optometrists.  Now, God not only merged our teams, but also added to our numbers.  We are excited that we will be able to work together to provide a full spectrum of healthcare with 4 doctors, 3 dentists, 3 optometrists (+1 optometry student), 2 pharmacists and 4 nurses on our new team.  Praise God for his faithfulness and provision!

We look forward to sharing our journey with you through this blog.  To those of you who have supported us in prayer and financially, we are thankful and blessed by your love and support for us.  May you continue to see God’s love in action as you follow us on our journey.
