Between August 3 and 16, 2014, 72 volunteers from 10 different countries travelled to Kenya to participate in the Medical Mission which was held in the locality of Ringa, Homa Bay County. After flying into Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, the volunteers journeyed to the city of Nakuru, where the Kenya Mission has its headquarters--and there they were trained for the mission project.

At the request of the Pacific Regional Secretary, Bro. Rolly Dumaguit, two training seminars were recently held by Bro. John Lausevic, the Australasian Union Welfare Department Director and also member of the General Conference Welfare Department Committee. The trip was funded through generous donations from brothers and sisters around Australia and the United States.
Fifteen energetic workers distributed 20,000 flyers all across the city of Kragujevac, Serbia—along with 450 posters and radio and television spots. Then, despite the fact that we were told that not many come to such outreach programs anymore, on the very first night we were blessed with over 100 visitors to hear Dragan Ivanov give the first presentation on How to Eat Healthy. About half of the people had come because of the flyers and half from the posters. Only one came from the TV and radio ads.
