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.
Probably close to 7:30 p.m. in NB – a mere 4:30 p.m. in the Northwest Territories. Bright sunshine, +26 (though the thermometer on the deck says 32), a truly gorgeous northern summer day!!! Great big white clouds on the horizon over Great Slave Lake, a whiff, right now only a whiff, of forest fire smoke in the air and promises of a late evening rain shower. I know you can see this in your mind’s eye as you have had the luxury of being up this way!
Enjoy NB, Nova Scotia is next!! HOORAY!! YAHOOO!!! GO GRANDPA GO!!!!
I will update my parents tonight when they call from QC.
Go safely, go with God!!
WOW, WOW what a nice thing to do. May the Lord bless the giver and the receiver.
Arvid you are incredible and totally deserve any reward.
Keep it up and we will continue to uphold you with our prayers.
