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,
Man, is Halifax far away!! We live in a very big country, but we have an even bigger God who says: “I am the LORD, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me? Jeremiah 32; 27. Be encouraged, God can do it through you.
Hello Grandpa Arvid! We are so amazed at you and pray every day for you as a family. My husband said to me yesterday, “what are we going to do for fun when he’s finished? We’ll have nothing to check out on the internet!” Today we were at the wading pool with your daughter Stephanie and your little grandson, and my son, Luke(5 years old), whispered to me, “Tell her (Stephanie) that we are praying for her dad!” My two boys just came to the computer, here are their messages for you:
Luke says: Have a good time biking. I hope you can make it in one whole day. We’ve been praying for you.
Sam (3 years old) says: I was going to say the same as Luke!
Have a wonderful last day!!
Arvid, you’re demonstrating that Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are laying down your life mile after mile, hour after hour, so the least of these in Kenya will have a life. Therefore, since through God’s mercy you have this ministry, do not lose heart. (2 Cor. 4:1) We applaud your dedication and commitment. Bravo!!
Thank-you Arvid for all you are doing for the children of Kenya. The verse that keeps coming to mind when I pray for you and your team is: “Learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.” (Isaiah 1:17) Thank-you for using your gifts/abilities to do right and bring encouragement!
Praying God blesses you with new strength for the last leg of this incredible journey!
way to go Arvid. We know you can do it. Keep your head filled with the right visions and keep those legs pumping.
Your passion is contagious and you are inspiring many.
Dave Balzer. I am glad you are on the team. Any chance of the Free Press doing a HUGE story on this. How about CJOB with Richard Cloutier on Thursday mg?? you have the connections!!!
