Meet Justus

Feeling Lost to a Life of Purpose

Justus grew up facing the harsh realities of poverty, with his parents unable to afford his school fees. He often felt like a "nobody," unsure of his purpose in the world. However, through the support of He Is the Remedy, Justus was sponsored to finish his education and is now proud to work within the very organization that changed his life. His journey from struggling with self-worth to becoming a vital part of the ministry is a testament to the power of hope, education, and community.

Meet Loyd

Witnessing the Power of Transformation

Loyd, a concerned community member and friend of He Is the Remedy, watched as many of the local youth fell into cycles of idleness, drugs, and crime. With no sense of purpose, some were even stealing to feed their addictions. But through the ministry’s work and the saving grace of Jesus, these young individuals have found hope, purpose, and valuable employment. Loyd has seen firsthand how He Is the Remedy has helped homeless youth find homes, return to school, and secure meaningful work, transforming lives and revitalizing the community.

Fueling the Mission: A New Season of Connection and a Bus for BLAST

May 19, 20252 min read

A California Visit & a Divine Opportunity

While visiting California in November 2024, we had the joy of reconnecting with many of you—friends, churches, and longtime supporters who have faithfully stood with He Is the Remedy. We came not only to catch up, but to share something exciting and urgent: an opportunity to fuel our mission in Kenya through the purchase of a ministry bus.


Why a Bus?

As you may know, our BLAST Evangelical Team—Building Lives Around Sound Truth—has been serving across Kenya, bringing the hope of Christ to youth and remote communities. Whether through outreach events, discipleship, delivering food during drought, or organizing football matches that open doors for ministry, this team has become a powerful force for the Gospel.

But one barrier kept slowing us down: transportation.

Right now, we rent two vans, pay drivers, and cover high fuel costs just to move our footballers to away games. The same challenge affects every outreach trip and food delivery we attempt. It limits what we can do and how far we can go.

A Sustainable Solution

To solve this, we’re raising $35,200 USD to purchase a used bus—a reliable, long-term solution that would multiply our impact while reducing monthly costs.

Here’s what this bus would allow us to do:

  • 🌍 Reach more remote villages with consistent discipleship and Gospel outreach

  • 🚛 Deliver food and critical supplies to areas facing drought and food insecurity

  • ⚽ Cut costs and provide safe transport for our youth football team

  • 💛 Maximize our capacity to serve, while honoring every donor’s gift through wise stewardship

We are committed to financial responsibility, which is why we’re not purchasing new—we’re investing in something sustainable and cost-effective.


We’d Love to Meet You

While in California, we’ve been connecting with supporters in person and would love to keep the conversations going. If you, your church, or your fellowship group would like to hear more about what God is doing in Kenya—or how you can support the Remedy Fund, help fund the BLAST Bus, or explore short-term volunteer trips—we’d be honored to connect.

Simply reach out to us, and we’ll find a time.


How You Can Help

If you’d like to help us reach our $35,200 goal and get this bus rolling, you can donate directly to the BLAST Bus Fund at:

No gift is too small. Every donation moves us closer to reaching more people with the love of Jesus.


Thank You for Walking with Us

We are so grateful for the ongoing encouragement, prayers, and generosity we’ve experienced from this community. You are truly part of what God is building in Kenya.

Together, we are building lives around sound truth—and now, we’re believing for a bus that will carry that truth even further.
