I was led to Christ at the age of 28 and since that time I have had a desire to serve God and a burden for lost souls. My wife is younger than me. She was saved at the age of13 and has faithfully served the Lord in our Baptist church. My formal training came from Missionary Randall Stirewalt and several of the national pastors who work with Final Frontiers. What they taught me I have now taught to other men. There are four men pastoring now whom I trained and I have started two churches on my own. My wife and I are from the Luhya Tribe so we speak our native tongue as well as Swahili and English. I work among the tribes called Luo, Luhya, Kalenjin, and Teso. Often I work alone but I also spend a great time working with the other pastors in our fellowship. By God’s help I have led 180 souls to Christ and baptized 100 of them.
