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.”

Updates from Kenya
MTK Elevate Media visits Our Ministry
Recently, we had the pleasure of hosting MTK Elevate Media, led by their founder, Michael Kalu, and his wife and business partner, Joelle Thinga. They traveled from Mombasa to visit our ministry in Chebaiywa, and their visit was more than just a media project—it was an opportunity to capture the essence of what He is the Remedy is all about and to inspire the next generation of young creatives within our community.
Bringing Our Story to Life
MTK Elevate Media’s journey from the coastal city of Mombasa to the heart of our village was a significant one. Their mission was to document and highlight the transformative work happening here, from our football program to our various community outreach initiatives. Michael Kalu and his team spent days with us, carefully capturing the daily rhythms of our ministry. Through their lens, they showcased not just the activities we engage in but the deep impact these efforts have on the lives of those we serve.
From the joyful energy on the football field to the quiet moments of prayer and reflection in our community meetings, MTK Elevate Media skillfully documented it all. Their work will allow us to share our story more effectively with supporters, partners, and potential donors, showing them the real, tangible difference their support makes.
Inspiring the Next Generation
Michael Kalu’s visit wasn’t just about capturing footage; it was also about giving back to our community. Many of our football players have expressed an interest in the arts, particularly in media and photography. Recognizing this, Michael took the time to hold teaching sessions with them. He shared his expertise in media arts, offering valuable insights into photography, videography, and storytelling through film.
These sessions were incredibly well-received. The players were not only excited to learn from a professional but were also inspired to explore new creative avenues. In a country where the media industry is rapidly growing, there are increasing job and business opportunities in this field. Michael’s encouragement and practical advice have sparked a new wave of enthusiasm among our players, some of whom are now seriously considering careers in media arts.
Launching a New Online Presence
Joelle Thinga, who is working closely with Michael and is an integral part of MTK Elevate Media, also played a key role during their visit. Joelle is currently working with us to launch our new website, which will serve as a vital platform for sharing our mission, updates, and opportunities for involvement. Her expertise in business and media is helping to create an online presence that will not only showcase the impact of our ministry but also engage and inspire our global community of supporters. We’re excited about the new possibilities this website will bring and grateful for Joelle’s dedication to bringing it to life.
Expanding Horizons
The visit from MTK Elevate Media was a reminder of the power of collaboration and the importance of exposing our young people to new opportunities. By encouraging them to explore media arts, we’re helping to open doors that could lead to fulfilling careers and entrepreneurial ventures. This aligns perfectly with our mission to empower the next generation, not just spiritually and socially, but also economically.
We are incredibly grateful to Michael Kalu, Joelle Thinga, and their team for their time, expertise, and willingness to invest in our community. The impact of their visit will be felt long after they’ve returned to Mombasa, as our young people begin to explore new creative paths inspired by their teachings.
Looking Ahead
As we continue to build on the momentum from this visit, we are excited about the potential for future collaborations and the opportunities that lie ahead for our young creatives. We look forward to sharing the final media pieces produced by MTK Elevate Media, which will undoubtedly bring our ministry’s story to life in a powerful way.
Stay tuned for updates and insights from the sessions, as well as the incredible stories captured during their time here. And who knows? Perhaps the next great Kenyan filmmaker is among our ranks, just waiting for the right opportunity to shine.
