Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is still practiced in some parts of Kenya, leaving young girls at risk of pain, health complications, and lost opportunities. It is not only harmful—it robs them of their dignity and their future. At Mission Tours and Travel, we believe every girl has the right to grow up safe, healthy, and free to pursue her dreams. That is why we are dedicated to ending FGM and other harmful practices through education, awareness, and faith-driven transformation.
During recent visits, missionaries spent time with the communities most affected. They held open sessions with parents, elders, and youth—explaining the dangers of FGM, the long-term effects of early marriage, and the importance of giving girls the chance to stay in school. Alongside this, they also shared the Christian message of love, dignity, and equality, showing that faith can be a powerful guide in ending harmful traditions.
The teachings were practical and interactive. Parents asked questions, and young people listened with curiosity, and leaders acknowledged the need for change. The missionaries also emphasized alternative ways to celebrate girls as they transition into adulthood—rites of passage that honor culture without harm.
Commitment to Ending FGM in Kenya and Protecting Girls
To mark the completion of these programs, certificates were awarded to participants. These certificates symbolize not just knowledge gained but also a commitment to protect girls and support safer, healthier traditions.
After days of teaching and community work, the missionaries also had a chance to experience Kenya beyond the villages. Mission Tours and Travel arranged a special discounted safari for them, allowing them to relax, enjoy the landscapes, and see the country’s famous wildlife—making their visit both meaningful and memorable.
The journey to end FGM and early marriage practices is ongoing, but every community reached brings hope for lasting change. Mission Tours and Travel is committed to supporting missionaries in meeting their goals, while also giving them a chance to explore Kenya.
