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.”

From Turkana to Transformation
At He Is the Remedy, we continue to stand in awe of what God is doing across Kenya—and we're thrilled to bring you into the story.
Recently, our team returned from an unforgettable outreach to Turkana, one of Kenya’s most drought-stricken, food-insecure regions. It was there that over 1,000 families were fed, and the Gospel was boldly shared in word and action.
What we witnessed was more than a mission—it was a move of God.
🎥 Watch It for Yourself:
Feel the joy. Hear the worship. Witness the impact.

🙏 A Redemption Story: Festus’ Recovery
We’re humbled and proud to share the story of Festus, who recently completed a 90-day recovery program. Not only did he graduate—he was honoured for his leadership and spiritual growth during the process.
Now fully surrendered to Christ, Festus feels a new call stirring in his heart:
“I want to speak to high school boys—share my testimony, and warn them about the dangers of alcohol and drugs.”
A broken past is becoming a platform for purpose.
Please pray with us for:
Open doors and favour for Festus’ new ministry vision
Continued protection, healing, and wisdom as he steps into leadership
🌱 Coming Soon: A Legacy of Land
We’re preparing to launch what we believe is our most pivotal project yet:
A 2-Year Land Campaign that will secure a permanent base for the mission.
Why does this matter?
End renting and plant roots
Expand sustainable farming initiatives
Build facilities to host mission teams
Establish a lasting home for community ministry
📢 More details are coming soon—but know this:
We’re building not just for now, but for generations.
💛 Thank You for Building with Us
From Turkana to the BLAST Bus, from Festus’ recovery to the land we hope to call home—you are in every story.
Your prayers. Your giving. Your belief in this mission.
You are helping build something eternal.
