As many of you know, Kendra is currently serving as a dedicated missionary in Ethiopia through Central Church in Sioux Falls. She's been working hard to make a difference, but she is now facing critical health issues and is intubated in a hospital in Ethiopia. The situation is serious, and they are arranging a med-evac to a better-equipped hospital in Dubai.
Her parents, Steve and Joni, are by her side. Their devotion is strong, but the costs are piling up for them and their family during this difficult period. We want to come together as a community of believers to offer both our prayers and financial assistance to ease their burden so they can continue to stay by her side.
Here’s how you can make a difference:
