Gerphas Oure, superintendent of the Kenya Central District, passed away 21 February after a long battle with cancer. 

Greg Crofford, a missionary to Kenya, shared a recent memory of Oure. 

"At the district assembly a few weeks ago, I was honored to pray for our D.S. and many gathered around to lay hands on him," Crofford wrote on his blog. "We prayed in faith for his healing. God had other plans. But we don’t mourn as those who have no hope! I know we’ll see Gerphas again some day when he’ll have a new body but the same old gentle smile."

Oure is survived by his wife, Evelyn, and children Kedrine, Johnston, Hilary, Cecily, and Shalton.

Prayer is requested for Oure's family and friends.
