Kenya

The country of Kenya is located in East Africa, bordering the Indian Ocean. The country has many national parks and reserves and because of this, people come from around the world to see the abundant wildlife. Coffee is an important export in Kenya, yet many people don’t drink it because of its high value – they would rather sell it than drink it! Many people consider Kenya to be a Christian nation. There are many churches there, but basic Biblical knowledge is lacking for most people and even many pastors.

  • Theological Training

    Reformed Theological Seminary (RTS)

    RTS has recently expanded to a four classroom building, but its impact expands much further than the size of the building for the spreading of the Reformed faith in Southwest Kenya. Word & Deed has provided for the construction of their expansion as well as books, furniture and equipment. We also provide funds to pay the salary of the staff (3 people), including a librarian so that students can access the library on a regular basis and further their knowledge.  Word & Deed has also partnered with the seminary to bring Biblical knowledge to the pastors through access to the Mukhanyo Seminary extension program. One of the Mukhanyo offerings is a diploma program where pastors with advanced learning can continue their theological studies. The other program is geared toward pastors, church leaders, and teachers who want to increase their Biblical knowledge through a modular program so they can be better equipped to bring the Word of God to their fellow church members. In the last couple of years, Word & Deed has also helped with multiple food, seed distribution and agricultural training efforts to help alleviate the impact of a lack of food.
