Individual students

You'll live and minister in a small farming village near Bungoma Town. The church planter you'll be working with runs a church, children’s home, and school. The children at the home come from varying backgrounds. Most of them are orphans or at-risk children who have some sort of trauma in their background. 


Some things you may be doing on this trip include:

  • Leading activities with kids at the school
  • Teaching Bible lessons at the school, chapel service, and evening Bible studies.
  • Getting to know the children who live at Mercy Home and sharing the Gospel
  • House to house evangelistic outreach
  • Work projects
