Seun is here!
Seun Oke arrived in MO yesterday afternoon from Nigeria to a surprise welcome by MU Nigerian students and friends from PET MO-Columbia. She is pictured with Gary Moreau, the Columbia shop executive director, and others.
We are working with Steve Baima who is the PET International lead for her PET promotional tour in the US for 2 months. Her tour is starting in MO at the PET conference next week in Columbia and she will then travel to selected other PET locations to share her story. As mentioned in the previous blog, she will be here in Austin, Bryan and San Antonio from October 22 - 26.
In addition to her tour stops, Seun will also have time to relax and do some fun things. Arrangements are also being made to help her get some computer training while she is here. PET-Austin is also hoping to raise funds through love offerings to cover the cost of sending a 40' container of PETs (176) to Nigeria in Seun's honor. We are working with our distribution partner, the Assembly of God Missions, in Nigeria to make this happen.
