Meet Mercy Gachengechi!

I would like to introduce you to Mercy Gachengechi.  Mercy started serving with us in 2008 as a team leader.  We had the pleasure of getting to know Mercy and hearing dozens of stories from team members that raved about their incredible team leader.  It did not take long for us to realize that Mercy had a personality and skill set that would add a lot of value to our Kenya full time staff team.  So, Mercy was hired to work in our trip logistics department, helping to arrange travel logistics for teams traveling to Kenya.  2009 has been an eventful year for Mercy. She got married and was also recently promoted to oversee our Kenya trip programing.  We are blessed to serve with Mercy, and look forward to how God will continue to use her to build His kingdom.

I was recently blessed to travel to Mutirithia, Kenya with an amazing group of 20 other Christian men to serve the families in that community over the course of a week. 

We prepared for weeks to make sure everyone understood the primary objective of the trip, which was to build upon relationships already formed in the community and to spread the Word to as many people as we could. 

Allow me to unfold a day-by-day glimpse of what we experienced:
