I serve as a full-time missionary in Mombasa, Kenya, with Fire & Fragrance Horn of Africa. Our vision is to see the lost saved, the saved revived, and every believer activated to fulfill the Great Commission.
Our ministry focuses on reaching unreached people groups, particularly Muslim communities along the Kenyan coast and throughout the Horn of Africa. Through prayer, evangelism, discipleship, Bible distribution, and outreach, we desire to see people encounter Jesus and be equipped to make Him known. We also partner with local ministries to train believers and establish simple discipleship communities.
My role includes direct ministry alongside overseeing administration, finances, and operations to support our team.
Our greatest challenges include reaching communities with limited access to the Gospel, navigating cultural barriers, discipling believers who face opposition, and financial sustainability. We rely on the generosity of individuals and churches to support our living expenses and ministry activities.
We address these challenges by building long-term relationships, learning local languages and cultures, partnering with local believers, and equipping people to make disciples in their communities.
Our greatest needs are prayer and consistent financial partnership. Monthly support allows me to remain on the mission field, while additional support makes outreach trips, Bible distribution, and discipleship initiatives possible.
Ultimately, our heart is to see lasting transformation as people encounter Jesus and become equipped to reach others.
