I was born into a church attending family in 1962, but didn't realize my need of salvation until my teen years. I received Christ at a church camp. My Pastor, George Pile, disciple me and challenged me to attend Bible College. I started college in 1938 and graduated in 1991. My wife was also saved as a teenager. We met in Bible College, and were wed in 1994. She is my co-worker, especially amongst the women and children.
My family lives in a two room house made with mud walls and a grass roof. It has 2 rooms; one as a living room, and one for sleeping. We cook outside. Generally we eat corn meal with vegetables and occasionally fish.
Because my tribe, the Luo, have generally refused to abandon traditional sexual practices, they are one of the most highly HIV infected groups in the world. Evangelism is very urgent. The people are open. Death is very real here. Currently I receive about $17 a month but need $70. Having a sponsor would provide more funds for traveling to the villages for evangelism, as well as provide for my families needs.
