Missionary Benjamin Kettor

Frances, Benjamin, and Ben Jr.

 

●  Benjamin Kettor is a Liberian national studying for the ministry at Davis College in the USA. 

●  Ben's family is still living in Liberia.  Ben plans to permanently return to his native country to serve upon graduation from college.

●  Orphan Cry is currently supporting Ben in his studies and preparation for ministry.

●  As is the philosophy of Orphan Cry, we desire to equip, support, and work together with  national missionaries.  The familiarity with the culture, and language, as well as the general acceptance of nationals in their own country has worked very well for us in other areas.

●  Ben is a very dedicated, personable, and motivated Christian young man.  We are very excited to have him and his wife Frances on our team!

●  We are still in the process of raising support for Benjamin and his family.   Perhaps you can help.
