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
More Than a House: How Two Homes-One Vision. Transforming a Kenyan Community
At He Is the Remedy, we believe transformation doesn’t just happen—it’s built, one brick, one heart, and one story at a time.
Recently, that story took a beautiful turn, thanks to a visiting team whose hands and hearts helped bring tangible hope to our corner of Kenya.
A Sacred Visit, A Lasting Impact
We were honoured to welcome Dr. Dan Stewart and the amazing team from LPU for a week of service, connection, and transformation.
While they were here, they didn’t just show up—they built. With sweat, smiles, and compassion, the team constructed two stunning new homes for families in need. The beauty of these 2 new homes are that they are considered respectful, middle-class Kenyan homes—with spacious rooms, a concrete floor, glass windows, lockable wood doors, and a sturdy metal roof.
There's even a separate, private toilet and a washroom, offering comfort and dignity for the community members who now live there. One of the two houses was designed to be wheelchair accessible, which we are proud to say we accomplished.
But these weren’t just shelters. These were:
Respectful, middle-class Kenyan homes
Equipped with concrete floors, glass windows, and lockable wooden doors
Topped with sturdy metal roofs
Completed with private toilets and washrooms
One designed to be wheelchair accessible
In a place where many live in temporary or fragile housing, these homes represent more than safety—they represent dignity.
A Week of Healing and Hope
Beyond the construction, the LPU team rolled up their sleeves and stepped into the life of the community—offering medical support, joining church services, and being present for heartfelt moments of worship, laughter, and learning.
From healthcare to home visits, every act of service was a living echo of our mission: to bring the hands and feet of Christ to places where hope feels distant.
✨ Fund a Farm: A Vision Takes Root
As we celebrate what’s been built, we’re turning our gaze to the future—and it’s bold.
We’re launching the FUND A FARM: Land Campaign with a vision to raise $512,000 for 20 acres of land that will become the permanent home of our mission.
Here’s what we’re believing for:
🌽 A working farm: maize, animals, and food security for outreach
🏠 A community centre, church, Remedy House, and staff homes
💧 A fresh-water well, fencing, and training space
🛏️ A guesthouse to host mission teams, interns, and volunteers
For years, we’ve made the most of what we’ve been given—but now it’s time to build something that can bless others for generations
Will You Join the Journey?
Whether you want to sow into this campaign, bring a team, or simply learn more—we’d love to connect.
This isn’t just about land. It’s about legacy. It’s about creating a place where the Gospel is lived out daily—through farming, worship, discipleship, and love.
Thank You for Believing in This Mission
Your prayers, your giving, and your belief in this dream are making it all possible. From new homes to future farms, you are part of the miracle.
With love and deep gratitude,
Russ & Maria Baker
