Christ’s Hope Kenya has expanded our ministry in 2008 with the addition of a Nairobi office. Dave and Jen Bell have joined CHIK as the Mission and Volunteer Coordinators and East Africa Representatives, and are based in Kitengela, on the edge of Nairobi. The Bells have been working in Kenya for 5 years. The NBO House has room to house a team of 15 and is complete with room for meetings.
Desmond Marshal has joined the full time staff as he serves as the Country Care & Compassion Coordinator, and oversees the office in Kisumu. Desmond brings a great passion for those affected and infected by the AIDS Pandemic.
Denise Runge has joined us in Nairobi as a long term volunteer and has committed to serve for one year. She is using her many skills to assist with the Choose to Wait Program as well as educational classes for health, hygiene, evangelism and discipleship.
Ministries
- Care and Compassion
- Currently we are assisting over 30 patients who are suffering from AIDS in and around Kisumu and Nairobi. In addition we are working with various HIV support groups supplying them with water purifier and assistance in other areas.
- Nurturing of Children
- We are currently assisting more than 75 children in the Kisumu area and over 60 in the Nairobi area. We are actively providing meals, encouragement and spiritual guidance and education. We are assisting in schools and established children’s homes we are partnering with.
- Choose to Wait
- We have several CtW teachers in the field each week and have a goal of reaching a total of 25 active and certified teachers by mid January of 2009. We are also partnering with Compassion International as we train several of their LDP (program graduates) students to be certified teachers as well. Reaching these objectives will enable us to be reaching as many as 2500 – 3500 children and young adults each week.
