Blessed for Purpose

Ted Rurup

Guest Speaker

Ted spent some of his growing up years in West Africa where his parents were missionaries. It was there he was exposed to Mission Aviation and later attended Moody Aviation where he met and married his wife, Liisa. After spending some years working in the Aviation industry in America, they joined AIM AIR, the Aviation part of Africa Inland Mission and moved to Kenya in 2001. They spent six years living up on a volcano in Northern Kenya as an AIM AIR pilot, and then moved to Nairobi to start AIM’s media team that is now called AIMStories. In that position Ted got to travel to various places in Africa, capturing the stories of what God is doing and revealing the areas where the church does not yet exist. They now live in Minnesota as Mobilizers and are still telling stories, but now more likely face to face in a café rather than through mass media. They get to cover from Minnesota through the Pacific Northwest and would love to connect with you and walk with you as the Lord allows!
