History of YWAM Athi River
That story starts in 1992 when the first African based LTS (Leadership Training School) was held in Nairobi. Over 200 students attended. The students lived in temporary structures which were built for the LTS. The biggest structure was the lecture hall, which also served as Dining Hall. It was done in YWAM style: “Train as you build”.
Underway! 🏁⏰⏳
Today these 15 students completed Week 2’s teaching on “Hearing God’s Voice”, with Elinor King’ori.
Pray for them as they march forward on this journey!
Next week, it’s the “Nature & Character of God”, with James Chege
