Adopting Hope

Adopting Hope: The Mully Children’s Family

A children’s home in Kenya has weathered the pandemic by staying focused on what sustains them.

How has Mully Children’s Home in Kenya cared for 3,500 children during a global pandemic? Why did Charles Mulli (also spelled Mully in Kenya) leave his life as a successful businessman to start MCF? How has God provided for MCF as they’ve served over 20,000 children in 35 years?

Listen in on this week’s conversation with Kara Bettis, Features Editor at Christianity Today, as she shares what she learned while writing an article about MCF surviving the pandemic. She tells stories of God’s provision, shares clips of her conversations with Charles’ son Dickson, and reminds us that, even in a year of extreme hardship, we worship a God who sustains us.
