Hero of the Faith #2

Peter, our translator with Dalmas, SEND Center Director,
holding the whiteboards we gave pastors to train others

Dalmas is the Director of the SEND Center, where the 15 pastors came for Pathways Bible Training, and 80 for general sessions. He also oversees the other ministries including medical, child sponsorship and and food distribution.

He used to pastor a church in another part of Kenya, then felt the call to minister to his own people, the Turkana.

He and his wife, Sarah, moved to Lodwar and began doing very effective ministry, eventually joining up with Share International.

Dalmas is a superb leader totally fluent in three languages, including English, and is amazingly astute biblically and theologically. He gave the pastors the best exposition of Acts 13 and the best talk on missions I have ever heard.

Almost everyone is having a good day

He and his Sarah have six biological children and eleven adopted children due to HIV, poverty etc. Six plus eleven equals seventeen. I'm astonished and challenged at how some of these folks live out their faith with relatively modest resources.
