Yesterday was a day of rest for Valerie and I. After two weeks of intense schedule we needed a day to recharge. Today we are at the “Rosterman Retreat Center” for a seminar for 30 pastors and their wives. When Simeon asked me to sponsor this event I felt an […]

Our team attended services at Kakamegatown Church today. Valerie and I consider this our home church in Kenya. The relationships we have here are deep and genuine. We have walked with this group of people for over 35 years now and the foundations of Worldcomp were laid here. When a […]
Today was the last day for Ryan and Teresa, Clint Campbell and Mark Buley, but we manage to squeeze in three hours with the boys at the Shikusa Boys Detention Center. I can’t tell you how much we love these boys and we are so delighted to be a part […]
