Endless adventures while growing up in Kenya; wild animals close to
the front door; an American community built on the side of the
Great Rift Valley: these are the settings for the growing pains,
trials and triumphs of a young Canadian-British boy studying in an
American school in Kenya. The threat of Mau Mau, a period of civil
unrest, and the growing movement towards independent nations in
Africa paralleled the spiritual and emotional unrest in the
youthful rebellion of David Phillips. Rift Valley Academy, a
boarding school for missionary children, aimed to provide
excellence in academic studies and spiritual formation.
Unfortunately, the temptation of stepping out of bounds into the
forests close by was stronger than the threats of losing points in
the ever present Point System. David graduated from University of
Winnipeg, University of Manitoba, and Regent College, Vancouver. He
is a high school teacher, pastor and missionary. His fields of
service include Brazil, Bolivia, Canada, Turkey and other countries
in Latin America, Africa and Europe. He has been involved in
theological education, church planting, evangelism and
discipleship, as well as ministries of social care. Extensive tours
of the areas of the Seven Churches of the Revelation have
introduced many to the Biblical sites in Turkey. David married
Cathie, a nurse who has participated actively in all his
ministries. They have a daughter and son-in-law and two
grandchildren in Thailand, and daughter and two foster sons in
Canada. David and Cathie live in Toronto, Canada.
