This past February I had the opportunity to visit our partners in Meru, Kenya accompanied by Peter and Josephine Mburugu. Due to travel restrictions during the pandemic, this was the first opportunity I had to visit the ministry since I became Outreach Minister seven years ago, and it was truly a blessed experience. Lisa with Florence K. Kimaita, Headteacher at Nyweri Primary School From the time I landed to the time I departed I was greeted with overwhelming Kenyan hospitality. I shared meals with volunteers from Hope International Ministry Trust, school administrators, and extended family members connected to Cherish. I met students and teachers and had a group of kindergarteners follow my every step as I toured their school. But the most memorable part of my trip was the stories I heard about the transformation occurring because of a simple lunch provided to students every day while they are in school. Two years ago, UPPC began sending funds designated for the Watoto ministry
