I became interested in mission and particularly, Global Teams in about 1990, through my church
when we began to support a number of missionaries and over the years as I have served as
chair of our missions board.
It was through Marc Nikkel and his devotion, journal and intensity, that I fell in love
with the Dinka people of southern Sudan. While I was born and continue to live in
southern California, my heart is in Africa, especially Sudan.
While health problems have limited my physical activities, as a mission mobilizer with
Global Teams for Sudan I remain faithful to the people of Sudan as a voice for them in
America; upholding them in prayer, speaking on their behalf to organizations within
America, and coordinating efforts that bring support and development to this country. |
