Introductions


I would first like to introduce a few people who made this mission trip possible. Harun and Anne Gatobu are Methodist ministers originally from Meru, Kenya. They now live in Kentucky with their three boys, Mutethia, Nabii, and Munene. They were ministers for the churches in Wallace, Hershey, Sutherland, and Paxton, where the seeds were planted for this mission trip. Also, Charles Mwiti, Anne's cousin played an instumental role in our trip. He lives in Nairobi with his wife Lucy and four children and owns Lindberg Safari, which is a travel agency for safari tours. He made all of the travel arrangements and provided transportation for our mission group of around 30 people from both Nebraska and Colorado. Charles is originally from Meru, Kenya, where the mission site and projects were held. I am so thankful for Anne, Huran, and Charles for making this mission trip possible.
