My Story
|
My first trip to Kenya was in 2010, we went to meet and raise support for high school students. In 2012 we wanted to connect with an orphanage and we met Pastor Paul Ochieng, the director of African Word Ministries. We wanted to donate some money to the orphanage, but he told us “no”, he would rather build relationships first. That’s what we have been doing since, building relationships with them. In 2013 I met my future wife Perez, the manager of the home and children’s pastor. When Pastor Paul talked about building relationships I don’t think he had this kind in mind. |
