What is your first memory of going to school? How does it affect the course of your life? I am sure you remember different things. As for me, my first memory of going to school is the accompaniment of my Dad on the very first day of the class. He brought me to the church to pray before taking me to the school. This first memory has resonated with me my whole life. For me, education and liturgy are intimately interlinked.
The Assumptionists have served the people of Nairobi for many years through education, pastoral ministry, and a commitment to accompanying young people and families.

The apostle loves the One who sends him; he must also love the one to whom he is sent, for his mission is one of love and of mercy. To share the mind of Jesus Christ who said: “I wish to bring fire on the Earth, and how I wish it were blazing already.” (Lk 12:49) The only desire of my life is to enkindle souls with this Divine Fire.
