TRANSCRIPT
AROUND THE WORLD
In the first couple of months of 2016, we have partnered with Mombasa Relief Initiative (Kenya, Africa),
the Sisters of St. Frances (Africa) and World Mission Outreach Center (Nicaragua).
Mombasa Relief Initiative (MRI) has been providing health, education and economic enrichment
opportunities for children and families in 7 different schools in Mombasa, Kenya for 20 years. Because of
your donations, MMDC sent 298 Personal Dignity Kits and 301 Children's School Bags to Chicago, IL.
MRI packed supplies in suitcases to carry to Kenya by 30 Missionaries. Below are some pictures from
their trip.
The Sisters of St. Frances in Independence, MO sent 7,000 pounds of MMDC supplies to African
countries. This includes 916 little girl outfits, 558 little boy outfits, 36 school desks, 336 children school
bags, 16 electric sewing machines, 9 treadle sewing machines and many other medical supplies. We are
very proud to partner with this ministry.
World Missions Outreach's desire is to reach the people of Nicaragua by meeting their spiritual and
physical needs. They do this by equipping people with the right tools to help treat the root of poverty, not
just the symptoms, through education and discipleship. MMDC sent medical supplies, sewing machines,
Personal Dignity Kits, school bags and much more adding up to 14,691 pounds.
Thank you for supporting Midwest Mission so together we can answer the need and show God's grace
around the world and around the corner.

the flood that happened right after the 2015 Christmas holiday.
Below is a picture from Six Flags St. Louis where MMDC sent cleaning buckets in cooperation with Red
