Boaz & Africa Niyinyumva
Litein, Kenya, Africa
Boaz and Africa grew up in the southern part of Bujumbura, Burundi. They served as Sunday school teachers in the same church where they met and then got married two years (2017) after engagement. Both Boaz and Africa were called at young age to serve God through Sunday school programs offered at their home church (Evangelical Church of Central Africa, ECCA/EEAC).
Boaz grew up with a clear calling from God to serve the underserved/underprivileged since childhood (at 11 years) through medical care and empowerment. He was called by God to be a doctor when he was in a refugee camp in the democratic Republic of Congo. Through hardship, pain and sorrow, God provided for his entire education from primary school until now. God brought people in his life that would meet his needs for the skills and support he needed to fulfill the calling. After completing his medical school at Hope Africa University in Burundi, Boaz joined Kabarak University in Kenya where He finished his training in Family Medicine. During residency he was also active in the PCEA youth ministry and leading the worship team of the English service. Africa finished high school in Burundi and started doing nursing studies at University. However, she soon realized that her calling was more toward helping underprivileged communities become more socially, economically and spiritually empowered. She currently plans to study Social Sciences and Community Development while in Kenya. She has been an active member of the Women’s Guild and Youth department, encouraging the young generation to serve God from a young age. After completion of their studies Boaz and Africa plan to go back home to Burundi and serve as missionaries in their homeland. They are in the process of applying with World Gospel Mission to become national missionaries, and are hoping to start the process soon of raising funds to support their ministry work. As of today, Boaz and Africa have one beautiful daughter, Bathia (2 years) and have just finished their time in Chogoria where they served under Kabarak University. They plan to join the growing team of faculty at AIC Litein Hospital in the training of Family Medicine residents under Kabarak before they return to Burundi.
