Sam and Sarah SnyderAs most of you know, Michelle and I are not going it alone in the Congo. Far from it. We are just one half of the team. The other half of our team is Sam and Sarah Snyder, most recently from the Rockford, IL area. They were married about 14 months ago and the work of the Eliky Center has been a passion of theirs even before then. Their wedding itself was a testament to that passion as they accepted donations in lieu of gifts for the work of the Center. Shortly after their wedding they felt the call to be of service on a greater level and have committed the next 2 plus years to work with us at the Elikya Center.
Sam and I were roommates at boarding school in the Congo as missionary kids and again for a couple years at Trinity International University in Deerfield, IL. It has been amazing to see how our paths have crossed yet again and to glimpse the intentions of God in so directing our steps. Even more than that, Sam and I share the joy of having wives that are equally called and equipped for ministry in the Congo and are by no means just being "dragged along."
We are excited to be on this journey with Sam and Sarah. To follow their own personal story, check out their blog, snydersincongo.blogspot.com.
