So then, while we have the opportunity, let us do good to all men, especially to those who are of the household of faith.” Galatians 6:10
Tierney Christian Mission
A wise young missionary once said, “You are either going or sending.” We are privileged to be going because you are sending.
Jim and Kathy Tierney will be living in Kamketo Village in Kenya.
“There are 14 churches who have needs for medicine, water, food, continued love, spiritual support and teaching. 14 churches means 14 Pastors, elders and evangelists who are being mentored by church leaders. They need and want deeper Bible teaching. Kamketo village has a small mud building used for the school, elders, and evangelists. We give teaching supplies, tablets, pencils, books, and lunch. Our many life experiences allow us to wear many hats. We work together to accomplish what the Lord has set before us while continuing to deepen our relationship with our PoKot brothers and sisters.
