| Meet the kind, gentle loving parents at the Joseph Waweru Home School. Pastor Joseph Waweru is the country representative for Expanding Opportunities and the father of the boys at the Joseph Waweru Home School. He is respected by the boys and community members and well loved by everyone. As hardworking Pastor of 6 churches, natural father of 5 adult children, and active community member, he is a wonderful role model for the boys. | Theresa, or Mama Mwangi as she is affectionately called by all who know and love her, is mother of the boys at the Joseph Waweru Home School. She is completely and utterly confident in her ability to run a household, manage a garden and livestock, care for her husband and the congregations he serves and raising a second family of children who are now her own. The boys have found in Mama the love and nurture they need to grow into strong, loving men. |
