2023 KENYA CHURCH PROJECT. $10,000 RAISED. A CHURCH WAS BUILT. PRAISE THE LORD!
The Current Church.
We visited a church in Kenya and were able to give them bibles in their own language. We were also able to fit many with glasses so they could read their bibles. There are many in the area that are being discipled. The issue is room, or the lack thereof.
The Building is Small.
The building can fit only a few adults. There are many more adults in the area that want to come. There are many children that desire to go to church with their parents. Their current church is meeting in a small home. Their vision far exceeds the capacity of their building.
Together we build.
This is the current pastor and his mother. They are standing on the site that his father and her husband purchased. He was the founding pastor, and had a vision to reach the area. He passed away, but his son has taken up the mantle and will keep the vision.

UPDATE: WE WERE ABLE TO RAISE $10,000 DOLLARS IN 2023. IT TOOK ONLY TWO WEEKS OF FUNDRAISING. THE CHURCH WAS BUILT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
We have partnered with Seeds Ministry in Kitale, Kenya in Africa. Seeds ministry does a fabulous job at planting seeds in the the lives of people, and from those seeds great fruit produced. We are partnering with a sister church in Kenya. It was planted through a discipleship program that originated from Seeds ministry. We are proud and honored that part of our Faith church family here in Conway, Arkansas (Samuel and Marsha Santiago) are missionaries. Kenya is one of the many places they serve. It was on a missions trip to Kenya many years ago that Momma Marsha washed the feet of some pastors who were being discipled through Seeds ministry. One of those pastors went on to plant a church in his local community. He had a vision to reach his community for Christ. His vision was stunted by lack of space for meeting. He dreamed of having a localized building that could serve his surrounding area. The people are poor. They live in tiny huts, most of which are made from mud. With the help of Seeds ministry, the pastor was able to purchase a plot of land. They were able to put a well on the land. This well is already serving the area. People come to the property from all around due to free, fresh water. The pastor died unexpectedly, but his vision remains. The pastor’s son was called by God to take his father’s place. He has joined the discipleship program offered through seeds ministry and has continued to keep the church going. Samuel and Marsha Santiago, as well as Pastor Sam from Conway Faith Church visited Kenya in November of 2023. It was on that trip that they were able to attend a meeting in the tiny church with a huge heart…and even bigger vision. It was there that Pastor Sam felt the need to partner with this church and make their vision come to life. We, here at Faith Church in Conway, are committing to raise the needed funds of $10,000 to build and furnish a new building for this sister church in Kenya. We have already purchased 16 chickens, which Seeds ministry has provided a plan with the chickens to help grow and sustain some income, as well as food for this church. We will raise the needed money for their building, as well as continue our relationship and support with this congregation. Your support is needed.
