More Than a Game:
Football as a Pathway to Leadership and Faith
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.”

Growth, Harvest, and Big News from Kenya!
Dear friends and supporters,
We’re filled with joy and gratitude as we bring you a fresh update from the field. It’s been a season of growth, harvest, and unmistakable faithfulness here in Kenya—and we’re excited to give you a front-row seat to all that God is doing through He Is the Remedy.
🏜️ Turkana Outreach: Bold Love in Dry Lands
Our recent outreach to Sigor and Southern Turkana was a massive success—over 1,000 families were fed, and the Gospel was received with joy and open hearts, even across language barriers.
This wasn’t just a distribution of food—it was an encounter with hope.
Our team grew in boldness, leadership, and faith, stepping into deeper levels of service and surrender. We're incredibly thankful to everyone who supported this mission—and we’re already planning the next outreach. Stay tuned!
🎉 Youth Camp Revival: 80+ Said YES to Jesus!
We just wrapped one of our most impactful kids and youth camps to date!
Through deep study, relationship-building, and years of faithful ministry, we witnessed something remarkable:
More than 80 kids and youth said YES to Jesus!
What once were seeds have now become fruit. Seeing lives transformed before our eyes—some from years of quiet discipleship—is one of the deepest joys we know.
🌽 Farming for the Future
We’ve just begun planting maize for our next food outreach—and the excitement in our team is real.
This isn’t just farming. It’s provision with purpose. Every harvest helps us feed vulnerable families, strengthen sustainability, and continue the cycle of empowerment.
We praise God for good soil, new beginnings, and a future we get to sow into—together.
🚌 The BLAST Bus Has Been Purchased!
This is big: We bought the BLAST Bus!

It’s a major step toward safety, sustainability, and scaling the work we’ve been called to do.

No more renting
Space to farm and grow
Facilities to host teams
A place for legacy and long-term impact
We can’t wait to share this vision with you. It’s big. It’s bold. And it’s going to bless generations.
