PEN Trust Visits Partners in Ohio
Part of the visit to the US included a trip to Ohio to visit partners there. Pastor David Bliss, wife Jill and daughter Rachel were our hosts for our stay in Bowling Green. Pastor Bliss has been a long time friend of PEN’s and comes to visit at least once a year.
We also had a chance to visit with Karl Gingrich, also a long time friend of PEN’s and tour Bowling Green State University with Monica Kasya. Monica is one of the first scholarship recipients for the Tanzanian exchange program set up by Karl and the university. There are now 14 Tanzanian students enrolled in this program.
