Who We Are
Transforming Lives Through Faith & Service
Cultivating discipline & faith
He is the Remedy's football program is more than just a sport; it's a powerful tool for transforming lives. We began with a simple vision: to use football as a bridge to lead young men away from the challenges of their past and toward a future grounded in Jesus Christ. Through rigorous training and mentorship, we instill discipline and teamwork, while simultaneously deepening their faith through dedicated discipleship and Bible studies.
From the field to the community
As these young men grew in their faith and leadership, their commitment extended beyond the football field. They have formed the BLAST Evangelical Outreach team, actively sharing the Gospel throughout local communities. Their journey didn't stop there—they’ve also planted a vibrant community church in Chebaiywa, a testament to their spiritual growth and desire to share God’s love.
Transformative Impact
From the Streets to a life of Purpose
Our football program has transformed the lives of many young men who were once caught in cycles of idleness, drugs, and disruptive behavior. Through the program, these players have found purpose and direction on the football field. It has provided not just an outlet for their energy, but also a supportive community that has guided them away from the streets and toward brighter futures. Each player’s journey is a testament to the power of mentorship, discipline, and faith, as they continue to grow both on and off the field.

Beyond the Field:
< Evangelism and Church Planting >
Our football program does so much more than just teach the game; it opens doors to new possibilities and brighter futures. For many of these young men, football became the key that unlocked their potential, guiding them away from the challenges of idleness and substance abuse. Through the values of discipline and faith, they found a sense of purpose and belonging.
Now, with the support of He is the Remedy, they’re using their experiences to reach out to others, leading the BLAST Evangelical Outreach team and helping more youth discover the hope and stability that comes from a life rooted in Jesus.
But their journey didn’t stop there. The relationships and lessons learned on the field have blossomed into something truly special—a community church in Chebaiywa, where faith grows and thrives. These young leaders are giving back in ways they never imagined, sharing the love and support they received through food programs, kids’ camps, and other initiatives that bring joy and strength to the community. It’s a beautiful cycle of giving, where the blessings they’ve received are now flowing out to touch the lives of others.
“Football gave me a reason to get up in the morning. It brought me into a family where I felt seen and supported. It helped me realize that I could be more—that I could lead, grow, and give back to my community.”

From Addiction to Evangelism: Turkana Outreach & the Power of Redemption
This week, our team sets out on one of our most meaningful missions yet—an outreach to Sigor and Southern Turkana, Kenya.
Our goal: to serve over 1,500 families with food, worship, and the life-changing message of Jesus Christ.
But this story goes deeper than meals or miles traveled.
It’s about transformation. Redemption. And the miracle of second chances.
Nyoka & Katupa: From Addiction to Evangelism
Nyoka's Story
There was a time when Nyoka wouldn’t even pray with us.
Addiction had hardened his heart, closed off hope, and convinced him that his story was over.
But God had other plans.
Through the ministry of He Is the Remedy, Nyoka found healing, freedom, and a new identity.
Today, he is a counselor, a bold evangelist, and a living testimony of what God can do.
He now walks in leadership—using his past not as a prison, but as a pulpit. In Turkana, Nyoka will share his story, helping others see that freedom is possible.
“God used my pain to become my platform. Now I get to lead others into the light.” — Nyoka
Katupa's Story
Like Nyoka, Katupa once battled the darkness of alcohol and drugs.
He felt lost, ashamed, and unworthy of anything more.
But Jesus met him there.
Through consistent discipleship and authentic community, Katupa broke free—and discovered a passion for reaching others just like him.
Now, he’s stepping out in faith—joining our Turkana team to preach, lead worship, share drama performances, and screen the Jesus Film for families who may be hearing the Gospel for the very first time.
This Is More Than a Mission Trip
It’s a holy assignment—filled with bold testimonies, practical love, and spiritual breakthrough.
But as we go, we need your support.
The Need Is Urgent—And the Harvest Is Ready
While our farm harvests help provide food, we still need thousands of dollars in additional supplies to serve these families.
🙏 Would you consider giving $100 (or any amount) to help meet this need?
Every gift helps us feed a family—and introduce them to the hope found in Christ.
