Nairobi City Team

Partner with us to impact Nairobi and the nations for Christ.

About Team

About Nairobi City Team

In Kenya’s capital city of Nairobi, the cares of life and the daily hustle to get money often hinder those who live here from pursuing God as their provider.  Furthermore, the traditional church is learning to encourage or teach local believers to own their faith and share it with their communities to all church members. But God deeply loves the people of Nairobi! Our team’s goal is to share the life-changing gospel of Jesus Christ with them and train the local church to work alongside us in this task. Please join us in this work!

Because so many people come to Nairobi seeking employment and a better life, we can reach the entire country by reaching Nairobi. As we train new believers to share their faith, they will naturally take it back to their hometowns and villages, thus multiplying the gospel throughout the 72 people groups of Kenya and beyond to the countries of the 52 other nationalities populating this vast city. We are in a prime location to impact the nations!

Your gift and prayers will help us accomplish the following ministries:

•    Missionary Task: Develop leaders in local congregations, training them in evangelism, discipleship and church planting. This work includes hosting vision-casting and prayer retreats. Our goal is that these leaders will take the gospel to their circles of influence and mobilize their local congregations to send their own missionaries to the nations. 

•    Humanitarian Ministry: Meet the needs of local Kenyan families by providing food and school costs for their children.

Also, Nairobi has one of the largest Somali and Congolese populations outside of those countries. God has brought them to a place where they can hear the gospel and receive assistance in their time of need. We will work within the existing churches and their nearby communities to reach out through community-development centers to impact the less fortunate in Nairobi.

•    Outreach to professionals: Create a chaplaincy program for the business world, including health checkups for government office employees, and 5K races and other events to attract the upper class to care more for their communities and give us access to share the good news with them.

•    Student Ministry: Establish discipleship groups at the university campuses around Nairobi to help students impact their campuses. We will have weekly gatherings, monthly exploration events, training, and skills development. We hope to see 50 new churches started near university campuses across the city that can send out recent university graduates as campus ministers and missionaries to the nations.

•    Diaspora outreach: Train Kenyan believers to reach out to the South Asians, Hindus and Muslims living in and around Nairobi. We will train new believers from these communities to share the good news of Jesus Christ with their countrymen and those from similar cultures. Your partnership through prayer and giving is vital to accomplishing this God-sized vision He has given our team. We believe that God will use Nairobi and Kenya to send missionaries to places that nobody else wants to go. However, to see that come to fruition we have to have resources to invest, train and empower the present generation and the future leaders to come. We ask you to prayerfully consider joining us on this great adventure to reach the people of Nairobi and, through them, the continent of Africa and the world!

Your gift will help us to pay rent for these facilities and to host community events, such as block parties, concerts, holiday events, and Vacation Bible Schools.

We desire to see Kenyan university students challenged and equipped to go as missionaries. Your gift will help fund a vision casting mission trip for university seniors to go to the coast of Kenya and engage an unreached people group alongside local believers. Our prayer is this trip will result in some of these students going as long term missionaries among other unreached people groups around the world.

Your gift helps fund fuel and public transportation costs for our team’s ministry so that as many people as possible can hear the gospel and learn what it means to follow Jesus faithfully.

Team Prayer Retreat

Effort Image

Your support will provide a unique time for our team to have a retreat outside the city to celebrate what the Lord is doing and simply fellowship together in order to be unified in our mission and vision to see Revelation 7:9 come to fruition.

Stundent Ministry

Effort Image

Over 250,000 students come to Nairobi every year to study. What if we could reach them with the gospel and then they could carry it back to their hometowns? Through English clubs, classroom times, Bible studies, and on campus evangelism, we are striving to reach this population with the gospel as they have shown extreme openness to something other than the traditions of their past.

Healthcare Strategies

Effort Image

We have opened doors to engage Muslims and Animists with the gospel in urban slums through various healthcare initiatives. Our medical professionals utilize day clinics, clean water programs, and other projects to enter rocky soils in Nairobi and around the country in partnership with the Baptist Convention of Kenya. Your gift allows this work to continue and expand so more people will give their lives to Christ in response to the gospel!

Ministry Partner Travel

Effort Image

Our local partners regularly travel into remote villages and new-work areas to preach the gospel. Many of them need help supplementing their travel expenses. This project will cover their fuel, plane tickets, and train tickets to get them to the places that need the gospel the most. Your generosity with this practical aspect of ministry is literally carrying the gospel into the least-reached places of the globe.
