“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” - Matthew 28:19-20

David’s Hope began when a mission team went to Eburru, saw a need, and asked the question – How Can We Fill This Need? Partnering together with a heavy reliance on God’s master plan, David’s Hope and Camp Brethren Ministries have built a community that reaches back and forth across the globe. Calling and assisting mission teams is at the heart of what David’s Hope is accomplishing. The past 3 years has seen an average of 8 teams each year going to Eburru to assist Camp Brethren in their outreach and ministry. All teams have different gifts and talents which lends to accomplishing a lot in many different areas of the ministry. From these missions’ teams, two participants answered an even greater call – to go to Eburru full-time to live and work among the community there. After multiple trips on different teams, 2019 saw both missionaries arrive on the scene.

Rannveig Fredheim

David’s Hope sends it’s first full-time missionary

Rannveig’s first trip to Eburru was in 2014. She fell in love with the people and the program of Camp Brethren and went back many times until 2019 when she packed up all her earthly belongings, said goodbye to her two daughters and family and went to Eburru to live. She immediately started work on building a mission house on the high school grounds, which she moved into recently. In the US, Rannveig was a school nurse. Her Norwegian background and her love of the outdoors have combined to make her quite the hiker and her walking forays all over Eburru are impressive. Rannveig manages the sponsorship program, helps in the clinic when needed and has assisted on many other projects at Camp Brethren including building Martha’s house, the visits to the village families to bring food and masks during the Covid-19 quarantine, and she takes the majority of the photos that you see on social media.

Lindsey Greenwald

DHI’s second missionary arrives in August 2019

Lindsey has been on multiple short-term mission trips to Eburru, and it was on her second visit that the Lord stirred in her a desire to move to Eburru. Throughout her time serving in Kenya and elsewhere, the Lord placed a passion on her heart to serve alongside Camp Brethren Ministries in their outreach to children with special needs and their families. Every child is fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of God, and Camp Brethren has faithfully been serving for years in showing these children and their families how much Christ loves and values every individual. As a Physical Therapist, the Lord has gifted Lindsey with many useful skills for the students with disabilities as well as those in the community who suffer. She helped in identifying immediate needs within the school facilities including the new handicap accessible toilet on the Primary campus, providing independence and dignity for the students while at school. … She is helping to get walkways widened and available by ramp to those confined to wheelchairs, and eagerly anticipating the day when the facility for those with varying needs will be ready to be occupied. She is also working with many passionate teachers at the school on teaching life skills and doing Occupational and Physical therapy with the students at the Primary campus where the enrollment of children with disabilities has grown from 12 when she arrived to 22 this school year. In one of her first progress reports she relates this: “One highlight of God’s greatness at work is what I witnessed when I visited one of the classrooms where there are four children with autism. Each of the kids had difficulty paying attention and participating in class most of the day, however during chapel hour all four of them were actively engaged in worship and praising God the entire time. Praise God that these children are hearing and experiencing Christ through worship, prayer and the Word.” Her mission work ended in 2021.
