Cohortatus
(Latin for alongside)
 
Our goal is to stand alongside our missionaries as they serve Jesus and his church in Africa -- to provide pastoral care to them and their families, and to form a cohort of intercessors who through their prayers and support will surround and undergird God's work there.

Alongside Africa

January 2016


In just a few days we'll head to Africa to visit our missionaries in Kenya and Rwanda. Please pray for our travel and ministry January 27 through February 11. 

Our first stop will be Kibogora, Rwanda where we will spend time with Julie Yerger, Sheila Etherington and the rest of our team at Kibogora Hospital. Julie works with the neonatal unit of the hospital and has seen great improvement in the survival rates of these tiny treasures.  Sheila is from our church in Great Britain and works in administration.

Next we will visit Mark and Cathy Lessig in Eldoret, Kenya and Debbie Hogeboom in Kericho, Kenya.  Mark and Cathy minister through Advancing Leaders International and focus on training for educators.  Debbie teaches at Kenya Highlands Bible School.

In Nairobi, Kenya we will spend time with Mike and Vickie Reynen our Africa Area Directors, Ken and Leddy Meyers, and Ashley Carrol.  Ken and Leddy work with the Jesus film and audio Bibles.  Ashley is newly appointed and will minister with International Child Care Ministries. 

Please pray as we travel -- many flights and connections.  Pray that we will be an encouragement to our missionaries, that Jesus will strengthen their hearts as we visit and pray together.
