Glenn

About You - I’m married with two children who are both going with me on this trip. I work for an oil & gas energy company as the Manager, Geophysics. I grew up as a son of missionaries in Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

What do you do at ABC? I have been attending ABC for 27 years and have served in many capacities. Currently I serve as a member of our Council and as a teller.

Why are you going on this mission? There are three reasons why I’m going to Kenya. Firstly, I grew up in Africa and this would be a return to the continent I grew up in. It is an opportunity to share with my children some of the culture and geography I grew up with. Secondly, it is an opportunity to introduce Altadore to Kenya and the continent of Africa. Thirdly, I will experience a volunteer mission trip and begin to explore the possibility of more in the future.

What are you looking forward to the most? I’m looking forward to the ‘familiar’ sights, sounds, and smells.

What would you like prayer for? For safety for all of us, for our team cohesiveness in Kenya, and for the impact this experience will have on all of us.

Verse - I Samuel 30:24 The share of the one who stays with the gear is the share of the one who fights – equal shares. Share and share alike!

Hi all. This is the second time I have tried to send this, so see if it works this time. I will see if Colleen can show me tomorrow. Glad you made it to England. My prayers will be that you all sleep on the next trip. Any motion sickness? I didn't sleep that well thinking about you all last night too.
Love ya
