Another one of our summer teams will be traveling to Kenya July 28-August 12. Their focus is to serve Tumaini International Ministries, which focuses on sponsorship of HIV AIDS orphans. KACC sponsors some 350 of these kids, from the very youngest to those in college.The team'
s trip will be spent in two sections: the first week they will be in Nairobi, learning about Kenyan culture in a variety of ways, and visiting projects in Kibera and/or Mathare, the two great slums of the city. Following that, they will travel a couple hours south and east to Machakos and Masii, where they will hold a dental clinic (Ron is the world's best bush dentist!), spend time with Tumaini-sponsored children, check out some ministry possibilities in a poverty area of Machakos, make home visits, and assist Tumaini in any other way possible.Please pray for this team as they give of themselves in some unique opportunities, and as they represent the hope found only in Jesus to a people who know much about Him, but where so many still need to know Him.
2008 Kenya GO! Team: Amanda Frazier, Pam Young, Mike Carman, Diane Williams, Kathy and Ron Jurgensen. Not pictured: Rose Mutunga
