After a couple of months in Kenya, the Chos were finally able to pay a visit to Athi River Base!
They are a South Korean family with 3 children.
Petro & Grace have come to pioneer a university ministry in Nairobi, while being part of YWAM Athi River. Having quite a long history with YWAM and the university ministry, we believe this family is going to be an integral part of our collective mission, and are looking forward to when they set the ball rolling.
Sadly, during this visit, Baraza (the Base Leader) had to be out to attend to an unforeseen immigration incident, but Karin was glad to step in and catch up with the family on the progress of their immigration and settling.
The kids are enrolled in school, while the work permits are still being processed. In the meantime, Petro is enrolled in a Swahili school – a very commendable step as regards understanding the culture & language of one’s mission location.
Karibu Kenya!
We’re looking forward to sharing every step of this mission that you have now undertaken.
May God guide and keep you through it all!
Catherine KingIt was the 90s and I was 7 and 9 years ago. Just a missionary kid who was living a free life. I helped with chores. I made chapatis on the jiko. I sorted beans, peeled potatos. Used machetes to chop the grass to help keep away snakes. We played football or soccer when the ball wasn't deflated by acacia thorns. The rest of the time we dug holes and played mancala in the dirt with stones. Or went wandering looking for impala, giraffe or elephants in the shadow of LuKenya. My parents taught DTS, leadership training courses, PCYM, led King's Kids and other activities. It was a great experience for our family as well as the many short term missions we hosted.
Brother Sam KitalyaA great place for training in discipleship and bonus of wildlife experience. Zebras, Giraffes, Warthog and Antelope roams. Truly a great sight and bird watching as well.
Noreen KomboA place to know God and make Him known through a holistic Discipleship Training School (DTS) run by Youth With A Mission (YWAM)
Vicent A. Kazungu (Baba Theo_Jedd)YWAM AthiRiver the mother of many YWAM bases/location in East Africa and Central Africa it is a beautiful place to be. They have a game pack on their land where you can see giraffes, antelopes, zebras and many coolest jungle livers. Being part of the YWAM global family they are involved in doing Mercy ministries, training programs and evangelism. You will enjoy your time whenever you visit them. Wonderful hospitality, warm friends from all over the world and environment will capture your attention. With these few words I therefore recommend YWAM AthiRiver as a place to be. Karibu!
David OryangAway from the clamour of urban life, this YWAM Base is an ideal getaway for one to be able to detach and zoom-in on the more important things of life - especially concerning Christ & God. Did I mention the abundance of giraffe, wildebeest, zebra, etc just close by in the bush-bush?
