Dave Husby’s Africa Travel Schedule
Below is a post from the Ekstrand’s blog (http://blogs.covchurch.org/wp/ekstrand/) detailing the travel schedule for Dave, Curt Peterson (executive minister of World Mission), and Pete and Cindy Ekstrand (Covenant missionaries in Africa). They will be joined by James Tang in Sudan. We will update here as often as we hear from Dave but he will likely be out of touch until he is back in Kenya. Keep them in your prayers as they travel.
