Leon, Joseph and the landrover


A few years ago, Abe travelled to Najile and met Joseph, along with other staff from the Presbyterian Outreach Mission Church. When he was there, he asked Joseph what was one need that the POMC would like to have met. Joseph said they needed a landrover, with a covered back, so that clients who were ill could be taken to the hospital in Nairobi to receive treatment, but would not be exposed to the wind, dust, rain and cold. Abe came back to Calgary and told the story, represented the need, and in the end was able to find a donor who covered the cost of buying a landrover. Amazing. Joseph told us when we were in Najile last week that since they received the truck no clients have died from exposure to the elements. Amazing. One of the donors was Leon Janzen's grandfather, Werner Zacharias. Here is a pic of Leon, Joseph and the truck.
