Overview

Mission

Since our 2013 incorporation as a non- profit 501c3 we have been consistently working to accomplish our goals to Build Gods Kingdom by strengthening His Local Church primarily in East Africa (Western Kenya). Last year we were working in rural Western Kenya in the communities of Kamukuywa, Naitiri, Chwele. However, this year we added 6 more locations (towns) In Kenya. These new locations are: Butula, Marsabit, Kitui, Turkana, LungaLunga and Kifili. Because over 90% of Church pastors in East Africa have no Bible training and because the rural people of Western Kenya make less than $800 per year per family, we have started the Kenyan Registered Society called EVERYDAY BIBLE AND DISCIPLESHIP (EBD). EBD exists primarily to train pastors in Protestant Evangelical Theology (without regard to denominations) in a free 3-year Bible College which as of December 2025 has 10 locations totaling over 300 students. All EBD students begin by learning and participating in a weekly Community Discipleship

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
