Blake and Nicole
Blake and Nicole have served the Lord together in East Africa since July 2010. They currently teach at Rift Valley Academy (RVA) in Kenya, which supports missionary kids (MKs) from across the continent. As teachers, they enjoy working with students and actively mentor them through coaching, Sunday School, and other activities at the boarding school.
They also work with a publishing group that produces a history magazine as well as books that focus on lives lived in Africa. The magazine has recently moved to online only but continues to be well-loved by its devoted readers. Blake does the layout and design of the magazine and books.
Blake grew up in Kenya as a missionary kid, while Nicole was raised on a small farm in upstate New York. They met in college in the US and both share a vision to serve the Lord together in missions. They have three children. Madelyn was born in July 2007, Quinn in November 2008, and Paisley in August 2013.
