ОглавлениеPraise for My Journey of Faith
In 2003 I, a stranger to Mr. Mulli, sent him a letter offering to transport three of his children across Canada on the back of a modified tandem bike, creating awareness and raising funds for MCF. Three weeks later he replied, “After discussion with my wife, Esther, my biological family, and seeking God’s will through prayer, I believe this to be the beginning of a lifetime partnership.” We were amazed at the faith required to trust a complete stranger with his kids.
As you read My Journey of Faith you, too, will be amazed by his example of unwavering faith in God, inspired to trust God more in your own journey and motivated to put your faith into action.

I highly recommend the amazing story of this man and wife of compassion and action. The wealthy, successful Mully family abandoned their earthly riches and social prestige so they could transform despair into radiant hope for the desperate broken street kids of Kenya. Though insane by earthly standards, they were totally sane by God’s standards and very wise investors. Their riches now are not in money or land but in thousands of transformed lives in Kenya and beyond. The future, though not yet written, may be even greater than the past. I am highly honoured to be counted among their friend for many years.

Dr. Charles Mulli’s 25th anniversary account, My Journey of Faith, is a remarkable testimony to God’s power and God’s grace in every situation. The unspeakable things Charles Mulli saw and endured were overcome when he accepted Christ and gave his life to God. Charles Mulli’s heart for the children who walk the streets and endure hunger, exploitation and fear, just like he did as a young boy, changed the heart of Africa and beyond. Dr. Mulli’s complete surrender to God and His will allowed Dr. Mulli to be blessed beyond his expectations. There were miracles, one after another, solely because Dr. Mulli believed that anything was possible through Christ. This book is a testimony to us all. It is a walk of faith all of us as Christians benefit from reading. My Journey of Faith brings Dr. Mulli’s journey of faith alive and real to all of us. His story leaves us with inspiration to carry on in tough times because God is real and He is always with us.

Many people dream of doing something that matters, of making a difference in the world, of impacting lives. The incredible truth about Charles’ life is that he is actually doing something that matters; he is making a real difference in this world and he is impacting lives in a most profound way. And how beautiful that Mully Children’s Family all began with a simply act of human kindness and an awareness of those who were suffering in Charles’ community. My Journey of Faith is a very human story. It is a story of suffering and triumph, of compassion and celebration, of self-sacrifice and trust in God.

My wife, Erna, and I visited the Mully orphanage several years ago. We were moved by the love and care for the homeless children of Africa. For us, this book completes the story of why the orphanage exists. Charles Mulli, the founder, tells it with candour and honesty. We read of his call from God to leave his successful business career to rescue children from abject poverty and abuse. The lasting transformation of thousands of children leaves a legacy that glorifies God.

My Journey Of Faith gives us a personal insight into the challenges Charles Mulli has overcome in his mission of love in rescuing children in Africa. From his difficult beginnings as an abandoned child to becoming successful in business, Charles Mulli describes how God used these circumstances to shape him for his eventual role of being a father to so many fatherless children. He explains how, when circumstances seemed hopeless, he trusted in God. I have personally been amazed at his life. In spite of all the many great accomplishments, his life is one of simple and profound surrender to and reliance on Jesus. And it is this love for Jesus that impacts everything he does. In this book, Charles Mulli shows us that a life of faith is not just for a simple few. Rather, it is accessible to us all. Each of us wants our life to count. And Charles Mulli points us to how that is possible through a relationship with Christ.
