KENYA OUTREACH MISSION REPORT, 2024

By Hamisi Ogaya | Co-Founder & International Director

KENYA OUTREACH MISSION REPORT, 2024

Greetings to our esteemed partners,

We hope this message finds you and your family well. We are deeply grateful for your steadfast support, which has significantly enhanced our organization. Your financial contributions, mentorship, resources, and spiritual encouragement have strengthened our relationships with partners, transformed our ministry, and enabled us to run our programs effectively. Thank you for your unwavering dedication.

My family and I are adjusting well. Our daughter has recently graduated to grade 1 and is excited about school. We continue to seek wisdom as we navigate life in the USA and raise her in this new cultural environment. 

Recently, I led a team of fourteen missionaries from Destiny Church to Kenya for a two-week outreach program. During our visit to Mbagathi Road Primary School (MRPS) on August 5th, we engaged in spiritual development, social games, and a tour of the school. The team also interacted with SAA beneficiaries, served refreshments, and enjoyed local cultural performances. We were pleased to receive donations of sports equipment from Destiny Church and The Edge Arts & Sports Academy and celebrated thirteen years of SAA’s impact. This was the first mission team of its kind since our ministry’s inception. 

The objective of the Mission:

  • Conduct outdoor sports training for Remember Nhu children’s home, and participate in community outreach with SAA.
  • Engage in worship, Bible teaching, craftwork, journaling, and build connections with Destiny Church-sponsored children, and donate learning materials.
  • Experience and showcase SAA’s outreach programs, explore future partnership opportunities, and immerse in Kenya’s cultural heritage. 

This mission marked two years since my family and I relocated to the U.S.A. It was fulfilling to reconnect with our marginalized children and witness the progress of our projects in Kenya. The Destiny Church team split into two groups: one went to Safar in Masaai Mara to experience Kenyan culture and see the “Big Five, “while the other explored Nairobi National Park.

In Western Kenya, we continued outreach with Remember Nhu, focusing on sports activities, daily devotions, and donations of sports equipment. 

Prayer Request:

  • For sufficient administrative funding to streamline operations and enhance program planning. 
  • Regular monthly support is needed to boost staff morale and retention. 
  • For the immediate acquisition and setup of four containers to facilitate secure operations. 

Way Forward:

  • Identify and recruit donors for exposure to ministry opportunities in Kenya.
  • Secure four 40-foot containers for office space, storage, kitchen, and meeting rooms.
  • Establish long-term partnerships and develop a strategic funding plan for program sustainability.
  • Aim to make this outreach mission an annual event and expose these opportunities to donors for support.

Please let us know how we can continue to pray for you and your family.
