Making a way in
KENYA
OUR PARTNER: Pastor Kevin Onyango
Pastor Kevin is a trusted WayMaker partner, long-time friend, and a faithful leader based in Nairobi, Kenya. Andy has known Kevin for over five years, during which time we have been able to send significant financial support for his growing ministry. Kevin has proven himself to be a man of integrity, faith, and remarkable resourcefulness—often selling and repurchasing his own car several times to fund the planting of new churches. Through his leadership, multiple churches have been established across Kenya and Tanzania, bringing the hope of Jesus to countless communities.
Kenya
A Vision for Nairobi
WayMaker has the privilege of partnering with trusted local leaders in Nairobi, Kenya, supporting community initiatives that bring practical help, dignity, and hope.
Nairobi is one of Africa’s most vibrant and fast growing cities. Alongside opportunity, however, many communities face deep challenges including poverty, lack of education opportunities, and vulnerable families who struggle to access basic support.
Through local partnerships we are exploring ways to serve communities in meaningful and sustainable ways.
And later this year we are hoping to embark on what can only be described as an audacious project.
An Audacious Vision
Together with our partners in Nairobi, we are working toward the possibility of purchasing approximately five acres of land to create a place that serves the surrounding community in practical and lasting ways.
The vision is to develop a community hub that could include:
A Church
A place of worship, prayer, and spiritual community where people can encounter hope and belonging.
A School
Providing education and opportunity for children who might otherwise struggle to access quality learning.
A House and Accommodation Blocks
Simple housing that could support ministry teams, volunteers, and provide space for those in urgent need.
Care for the Vulnerable
Facilities where we can help feed the poor, support widows, care for orphans, and serve the wider community.
This is not just about buildings. It is about creating a place where lives can be restored, families strengthened, and futures changed.
A Long Term Community Investment
Projects like this take time, partnership, and faith.
Our goal is to work closely with trusted local leaders so that everything we do is locally led, sustainable, and rooted in the needs of the community.
The dream is to establish a centre that becomes a lasting source of hope, education, compassion, and community for generations to come.
