About MCF
Charles Mulli is a former street child from the slums of Kenya. He became extremely successful in business, but then God called him to give it all up and care for the orphaned and abandoned children still on the streets in Kenya. Charles Mulli is the founder and CEO of Mully Children's Family. To learn more about MCF, click here.
Arvid's Role
God has called me (Arvid) to be an ambassador for Mully Children's Family. I have chosen to use ultramarathon cycling as my platform from which to fulfill this calling. You can follow my ride, here, at www.grandpascan.com/ride. To read more about me and my story, click here.Donate
I am asking you to help. I am trying to raise funds for the ongoing and capital expenses for the child mothers program at MCF. This program provides the critical life skills the young mothers need. To learn more about donating, click here.
Hi Arvid,
Thank you for your willingness to be vulnerable and allowing yourself being pushed to the edge of your own strength and then explaining your step of faith in turning the ride over to God. It is a sermon on practical discipleship we will not forget so soon. God is strong in the weak!! I will continue to pray for you and the crew.
You have been an inspiration Arvid. I am moved by your prayer today, that “I can’t, but God can.” The Message bible translation in 2 Cor. says that “Distress drives us to God”. May you continue to ride and pray constantly, and may you receive the strength you need, even when you are feeling you can’t do another mile. I have been following your ride ever since I heard you interviewed on CBC before you began. I have been praying for you!

Thanks for the video. We need to know how hard this is and pat answers are certainly not what we want to me about! Praying God can give you what you need Arvid.
