Meet David Muchai Ngunyi!

David Muchai (Moo – ‘chy) is The 410 Bridge‘s newest Community Development Manager.  He was hired to fill the vacancy left when Andrew was promoted to Country Director.

I had the opportunity to spend some time with him in August and I was very impressed with his ability to engage the communities and earn the trust of the community leadership.

One of Muchai’s first projects was to contract with the people of Kwambekenya to secure 13,000 hand-made leather X’s for the Catalyst Conference in October.  In the end, Muchai was able to have over 18,000 “X’s” made within a matter of weeks.  All proceeds from the sale of the “X’s” will be used to support orphans in Kenya.

Good job, David!

Learnings From Kiu, Kenya

Our partnership with Kiu community started way back in 2009 making it one of the first communities to partner with the 410 Bridge since its inception in Kenya in 2006. 

At the 410 Bridge, we work through the community leaders who ensure continuity of the community’s development even after graduation. During our partnership journey, we walk alongside indigenous community leaders and church leaders as they mobilize and unify the community to participate in their own development – shifting their perspectives and owning the solutions.

Serving with Joy: A Week in Mutirithia, Kenya

If you haven’t yet had the opportunity to go on a mission trip to Kenya, allow me to do my best to try to put into words what an incredible life-changing experience that you really need to do at least once in your life. 

I was recently blessed to travel to Mutirithia, Kenya with an amazing group of 20 other Christian men to serve the families in that community over the course of a week. 

We prepared for weeks to make sure everyone understood the primary objective of the trip, which was to build upon relationships already formed in the community and to spread the Word to as many people as we could. 

Allow me to unfold a day-by-day glimpse of what we experienced:
