Who We Are
Transforming Lives Through Faith & Service
Sowing Seeds of Opportunity
Our farming program is designed to do more than just grow crops; it cultivates futures. Through hands-on training in sustainable agriculture, we equip individuals with the skills they need to provide for themselves and their families. This program offers a pathway out of poverty and into a life of dignity and purpose, keeping youth engaged in meaningful work and away from the cycle of drug and alcohol abuse that was rampant before they began farming and playing football with He is the Remedy.
A community rooted in growth
The impact of our farming initiative extends beyond individual gain—it builds community, fosters collaboration, and strengthens resilience. As these young men grow in their skills, they share their farming knowledge with others, support food outreaches, and witness how prayer has consistently yielded healthy crops, creating a foundation for long-term community development.
Transformative Impact
From Fileds to fulfillment
Our farming program has transformed the lives of many young men who once faced uncertain futures. Through this initiative, they have gained essential skills that provide them with a sense of purpose and stability. Their journeys from uncertainty to fulfillment are powerful testimonies to the impact of sustainable farming, not only on individuals but also on the entire community. This program equips participants to build brighter futures while contributing to the well-being of those around them.

Beyond the Field:
< How Growing Food Helps to Grow a Community >
The farming program has provided young men with a crucial opportunity to move beyond lives once overshadowed by crime, drug abuse, and early pregnancies. By learning agricultural skills, they’ve not only secured steady income but also gained a sense of purpose and direction. This program has enabled them to improve their own lives and uplift their families, offering a meaningful alternative to the challenges they once faced.
With each successful harvest, they’ve come to see their work as a blessing from God, which motivates them to give back. They participate in food outreaches, bringing their produce to communities like Narok, which has suffered from a 7 year prolonged drought.
Through these efforts, they share not only food but also their faith, spreading hope and the message of Jesus to others in need. Their journey from hardship to leadership is a testament to the powerful impact of the farming initiative.
“Before I started farming, my life was headed down a dark path with drugs and crime. I didn’t see a way out. But working the land gave me something real to hold onto—something that made me feel like I had a future. Now, instead of wasting my life, I’m helping to build up my community. It’s like I’ve been given a second chance.”

Win, Lose, and Draw: A Season of Challenges and Victories
As we reach the halfway point of the season, the Chebaiywa Football Club stands strong with 15 wins, 2 losses, and 6 draws, maintaining our position at the top of the league. The second half of the season has been far more challenging, as other teams seem determined to knock us from our first-place spot—by any means necessary. Despite facing cheating, bribery, rough play, and even ringers, our boys remain resolute in their faith, stepping onto the field each time with integrity and determination.
This theme of "win, lose, and draw" extends beyond the football field and seems to encapsulate our experiences over the past two months. We've faced numerous challenges, from disciplinary actions to difficult counseling sessions. Yet, through it all, we've also seen incredible victories that remind us of why we do this work.
Wins: From the Field to the Community
One of the most significant wins came when the team was invited to the home of an older couple from a neighboring village. This was no ordinary invitation; the couple is Muslim, and they asked our team to come for tea and pray for them. It was a powerful reminder that faith transcends barriers and that our work is touching lives in unexpected ways.
Another major win is the success of our farms. The quality and quantity of our harvests have exceeded expectations, attracting the attention of other local farmers who visit our fields to learn our methods. These conversations always begin with our guys sharing about Jesus, intertwining their agricultural success with their faith.
A Loss That Became a Huge Win
Kinda, one of our football players, has had an incredible transformation journey. Once struggling with alcohol and drug problems, Kinda’s life took a turn when he found faith in Jesus. So much so that the team elected him as their captain. However, Kinda and his wife, who were living as caretakers in someone else's home, faced a crisis when the owners decided to return and asked them to move out.
Kinda had saved what little money he could to buy materials to build his own home, but the situation was dire, with his wife being seven months pregnant. When Kinda approached us for help, we discovered that the materials he had bought were inadequate. Our team sprang into action, finding better materials and ensuring Kinda’s new home was built properly. His teammates joyfully participated in the construction, turning a potential loss into a resounding win. The home will be dedicated on August 27th.
Challenges and Prayers Needed
Not all challenges have turned into immediate victories. We’ve been working with two young brothers who were semi-abandoned by their mother. Despite our best efforts to support them and reconnect them with their mother, she has left again, showing little interest in their well-being. This situation is heartbreaking, and we are partnering with other ministries and authorities to ensure these boys have a future filled with hope and promise. Your prayers for Brian and Dennis would be greatly appreciated.
We are also facing uncertainty with our work permits and visas, which expire soon. While we have taken all necessary steps for renewal, the process is fraught with bureaucratic challenges. We are trusting in God’s plan but ask for your prayers as we navigate this difficult situation.
Ending on a High Note
Despite the struggles, we have experienced moments of pure joy and gratitude. We were honored to attend a celebration for our dear friend Florence, who received the Hero’s Award from the Republic of Kenya for her service to her church, community, and country—the highest civilian honor.
Another significant win came when our football players stepped up to donate blood for patients in need, despite having worked hard all day. Their selflessness and willingness to help others, even when tired and hungry, filled our hearts with pride.
