THE CALLGod has called our family to serve as sponsored missionaries with the Church of the Nazarene at Africa Nazarene University in Nairobi, Kenya - and we are stepping into that call now.We are serving on campus by training future pastors and offering spiritual care to students who will lead the Church across Africa.We’ve named this season:The Flame & The Field🔥 The Flame represents the Holy Spirit - the fire that calls, equips, and sends.
🌾 The Field represents where God sends us - the students, leaders, and lives being formed for His Kingdom.We are saying yes to the flame and walking into the field.And we’re not meant to do this alone. We are building a team of partners who will pray, give, and walk with us as this work unfolds.You can be part of what God is doing at Africa Nazarene University - right where you are.Will you join us?
Pray for our family. Support the mission. Walk with us as we serve.Let’s carry the flame - into the field.
