Kenya
After 13 years in public schools, both as teachers and Patrick as a principal, the McClures felt called to go to Bundibugyo, Uganda in 2019. Patrick was the Director of Christ School Bundibugyo, and Alexis trained local teachers in literacy and phonics instruction. Four years later, again the McClures followed Christ’s leading to Nairobi, Kenya where Patrick now serves as the Programs Officer for the Association of Christian Schools International - Kenya (ACSI). Through this organization, they are able to work alongside professional Kenyans to train teachers, develop leaders, and help schools grow to become Gospel-centered, authentic Christian schools. The McClure family is sent by the mission organization Serge. For more information or to support the work of improving Christian education for children across Kenya click HERE.

Kenya
In the summer of 2020, the Sund family transitioned to ministry at AIC Kijabe Hospital in Kenya where Greg continues to train physicians and nurse anesthetists. The Sund family works through the sending agency Serge. Greg has made multiple short-term medical mission trips and has seen first-hand the value of medical education in underserved areas. His desire is to help raise up a generation of well-equipped East African physicians and non-physician anesthetists. Greg taught anesthesia and critical care medicine to medical students and nurse anesthetists for Hope Africa University in Burundi. He is now working in Kenya to train and disciple physicians and non-physician anesthetists who come to Kijabe from several countries in East Africa where there are severe shortages of qualified anesthetists to provide safe anesthesia.
