Dates

I would love to host any young person wanting to intern with us, directing their projects toward teens & twenties & improving life here. Work with our youth camps, weekend challenges, games, sports, talent shows, sharing the word, and more...We could accommodate any team wishing to reach out to our here evangelistically or through medical/dental ministry. We have 20 youth center branches in western Kenya but want to reach more areas of the nation. A team could help grow & develop one of those or a new one.

I began living in Kenya full-time [after selling all my possessions in Canada] in March of 2010. I knew no one here but felt led to start in this place.  The ministry now enjoys an abundance of leaders & churches that have joined or begun with us, along with a thriving school ministry.
