Yesterday afternoon, the latest LMI Overseas Ministry Team – Adrian and Heather Holdsworth, Rachel Dobson, and JD - departed the UK and set out for Kenya.
Over the next two weeks, the team will be working with LMI’s new coordinator for Kenya, Pastor Eric Ngala Mutumbi, to provide knowledge and training for Christian leaders. The topics they will be teaching on include hermeneutics, servant leadership and soul care, children’s and youth ministry, unreached people groups, and more.
LMI has a long association with Africa, and the nation of Kenya in particular, stretching back to the 1970’s and Pastor Josiah Ogalo (pictured), who was one of the first speakers from overseas to take part in LMI (then YEMF) meetings here in the UK. Pastor Josiah, who is now in glory, worked with LMI on various projects over several decades, including the creation of the ‘Feed My Lambs’ Library, and hosted LMI ministry teams on a number of occasions, the last time been in 2012.
We are thrilled that God has once again enabled us to support our Christian brothers and sisters in Kenya, and would truly value your prayers for this work in the days ahead.
