Frank Karoli

Frank is a wonderful man with a big heart for spreading the word of God. Frank grew up very poor living in Tanzania. As a teenager, he lived on the streets with no home, family support, nor ability to earn money. Pastor Umba met Frank and invited him to stay on the grounds of the Methodist Church in exchange for work. With determination and sheer willpower Frank graduated from high school at the age of 26! A New Covenant family got to know Frank through their mission trips to Morogoro, Tanzania. This family supported him so that he could graduate from college in Tanzania. Four years ago Frank received a full scholarship to TCU and to Brite Seminary in Texas. Individuals and churches raise $20,000 each year to cover the additional cost of books, fees, apartment, etc. New Covenant is actively involved in helping Frank to achieve his goal of graduating from Brite Seminary. Upon graduation Frank will return to Morogoro to minister to the Masaii people, train pastors, and plant churches.

Frank would love to receive cards of encouragement and of prayers. Please send cards to:
