Throughout we have seen a lot of changes since the start of food distribution, our church Sunday fellowship attendance continued increasing in number, many who came we blessed with the word of God and receiving Christ and we thank God we even have personal testimonies testifying the work Helping Kenya Kids is doing in their communities.

Our Pastors have continued preaching the word of God in our centers. They have always expressed their heartfelt gratitude and thanked Helping Kenya Kids for remembering them during the hard times of the covid-19 pandemic.

Pastors capacity building training

We are very grateful for pastor Adam spending time training our pastors. We have already seen how this has really impacted our pastors with more knowledge on how to be a healthy and Godly leader. We had a total of 8 pastors some from nearby churches and outposts from ilkerin chapel under pastor kerema who are benefited from the training. We are looking forward to future training to raise the standards and capacity of our pastor for ministry.
