We will serve in Kisumu, Kenya with Life for Children Ministry. I am honored to have the opportunity to advance God’s kingdom through microfinance. I have  a Master of Information Degree from American InterContinental University and a Bachelor of Science in Business Operations from DeVry Institute of Technology. I will use my professional experience  to lead the Microfinance Program with Life for Children Ministry in Kenya. The Program seeks to serve underprivileged individuals in order to relieve suffering and promote holistic transformation by providing access to financial products that will economically empower them. The goal is for recipients to achieve economic independence for business development and wealth through hands on training, mentoring, and access to relevant resources.

Kenya, an independent African country the size of Texas, is a land of variety in landscapes, culture and religion. Kenya is bordered on the east by the Indian Ocean and Somalia, Ethiopia to the north, Uganda to the west, and Tanzania to the south. Kenya's natural beauty and wildlife draw thousands of tourists each year to visit the game preserves, snowcapped Mt. Kenya, and beaches along the warm Indian Ocean. Although Kenya has a history of more than hundred years of Protestant missionary work, and Bible is taught as an academic subject in high school, religious confusion reigns because of the varied teachings that circulate throughout the country under the label "Christian." The Roman Catholic Church is the largest religious body in Kenya, although it is intermingled with animist beliefs. Islam is growing at a rapid rate and currently claims 10% of the population.
