Meet the MSPF Board: Craig Marshall

Craig Marshall’s connection to MSPF goes back many years through friendships formed in ministry. Craig was part of the youth ministry team led by Fred Foy at Reid Memorial Presbyterian Church in Augusta, Georgia, while Cecily and Craig’s wife, Teri, developed a lasting friendship through Presbyterian Women Bible studies.

Today, Craig brings his professional experience in finance to the MSPF Board, helping ensure that the resources entrusted to the ministry are managed with wisdom, integrity, and accountability. His thoughtful perspective helps MSPF remain a faithful steward of the gifts that make ministry possible.

We are grateful for Craig’s commitment to the mission of MSPF and for the many years of friendship, service, and support he and Teri have shared with our ministry family.

Serving as a minister in the African Inland Church (AIC), Benson has worked alongside the Strangs since the late 1980s, sharing a common commitment to the Gospel and to the people of Kenya.

Today, Pastor Benson serves MSPF in an ex-officio advisory role, offering valuable insight, wisdom, and local perspective that help guide the ministry’s work. His decades of experience in pastoral leadership and community ministry continue to strengthen MSPF’s mission of sharing Christ’s love while serving communities across East Africa.

Meet the MSPF Board of Directors

Behind every ministry is a team of faithful people working to ensure that resources are used wisely, needs are being met, and the mission remains focused on sharing the love of Christ.

The MSPF Board of Directors serves in that role. Made up of individuals from diverse professional backgrounds and life experiences, the board provides oversight, accountability, encouragement, and prayerful guidance for the ministry’s work among the Maasai people.

From reviewing projects and financial stewardship to helping evaluate needs and opportunities, these men and women serve faithfully behind the scenes to help ensure that MSPF remains mission-focused, transparent, and effective in its work.

In the coming weeks, we’d like to introduce you to the individuals who help guide and support the ministry through their service on the MSPF Board of Directors.

We are grateful for their dedication, wisdom, and commitment to the work God has called MSPF to do.

Two photos. Thirty years apart. One faithful story.

The first photo was taken in 1982. A crowd gathers outside a church building that MSPF founder Fred Foy Strang helped establish alongside local Maasai believers. More than just a structure, it became a place for worship, discipleship, prayer, and community.

The second photo was taken in 2012. Standing in front of that same church are Fred Foy and his son, Jacob, three decades later.

We’ve been doing this for over 40 years.

These photos remind us that ministry is not measured in days or even years, but in generations. What began through faithful relationships in the early 1980s continued decades later through the people, churches, and communities that were impacted along the way.

At MSPF, our mission has always been about more than projects. It is about sharing the love of Christ, strengthening local churches, and walking alongside Maasai communities as they grow and thrive.

Thirty years passed between these photos. The building remained. The relationships remained. And by God’s grace, the work continues today.

For more than 40 years, MSPF has been walking alongside Maasai communities in Kenya and Tanzania.

What began as a calling to share the love of Christ has grown into decades of relationships, discipleship, and community partnership. Through changing seasons, our mission has remained the same: to go, teach, make disciples, and bear witness to God’s love through both word and action.

We’ve been doing this for over 40 years.

Not because the work is easy, but because relationships matter. Communities matter. The Gospel matters.

Thank you for helping us continue this journey through your prayers, encouragement, and support.

At the heart of MSPF is a simple mission: to fulfill the Great Commission by walking alongside the Maasai people of Kenya and Tanzania.

Since the 1980s, MSPF has partnered with Maasai communities to support Christian growth, church development, leadership training, education, and community-driven initiatives. What began through relationships formed decades ago continues today through local leaders, churches, and communities working toward a stronger future.

Our desire is not simply to provide resources, but to equip and encourage lasting growth that can impact generations.

Thank you for being part of this journey through your prayers, encouragement, and support. Together, we are investing in lives, communities, and communities transformed by the hope of Christ.
