In 2007, 12 of our UDLC members and friends spent a week or three working in the Orphan’s program with Tracey and Jack Ambuka.
Jack and Tracey Ambuka led a group of Upper Dublin missionaries for a summer experience they’ll
never forget. Jack is a native of Maseno,
Kenya, and met
Tracey Pollick one year on her missionary work. They married and Jack now
attends the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Philadelphia full-time. They are the leaders of the projects at the
orphan program in Jack’s village and surrounding regions. Tracey has written
curriculum for the lessons of the day schools the orphans attend, and it has
been widely recognized as a model for others to use. Over 10,000 orphans are fed one daily meal,
and given some education through this project of the Episcopal Church under the
direction of two missionaries who live on site.
Currently, we sponsor three high
school students with scholarships so they have a chance at advancement. We are
still establishing and expanding our work with Kenya.
