People Of Pokot




In this photograph, the girl on the left is a 13 year old from Pokot. 

On her right is her 53 year old schoolmate. 

They are singing together, dressed in their school uniforms in the presence of the other community members. We would love to multiple happy moments like this one in Pokot.
Please join us in July when we plan to bring free medical care and a children's bible school program in our upcoming mission trip. We are still collection donations and requesting prayer for the trip, so everyone can help in one way or another. Partner with us for Pokot today!

Win Souls

"Let every worker for Christ make it his highest aim to win souls, rather than to be looking at and teaching mere superficial requirements. Bend your energies to the fitting of living stones for the building of God." The Medical Missionary

There are many ways to win souls for Christ. Besides giving bible studies, getting involved in community outreach initiatives and evangelizing, you can help bring healing to many. If one spent time studying The Gospels, you would see that Jesus spent more time healing the people than preaching; so won't you join us in this work in July? We are still accepting applicants for the mission. Also, please consider donating today; all funds will be used for the mission trip and the beautiful people of Pokot.

Thank you (Asante)

Tenderness and Compassion of Christ

True sympathy between man and his fellow men is to be the sign distinguishing those who love and fear God from those who are unmindful of His law. How great the sympathy that Christ expressed in coming to this world to give His life a sacrifice for a dying world! His religion led to the doing of genuine medical missionary work. He was a healing power. “I will have mercy, and not sacrifice,” He said. This is the test that the great Author of truth used to distinguish between true religion and false. God wants His medical missionaries to act with the tenderness and compassion that Christ would show were He in our world.—Medical Ministry, 251

We are thrilled for the few who have signed up for the mission, but we are still looking for a few more souls to join us in showing tenderness and compassion to our fellow brothers and sisters in East Pokot. 

Please consider registering today by going to our application tab. You can also support us by praying for us and the mission, or by donating to the mission by clicking here.

Praise to The LORD, The Almighty, The King of All Creation!

Bringing Children To Christ

There is a work to be done in bringing children to Christ.

In the days of Christ, mothers brought their children to Him, that He might lay His hands upon them in blessing. By this act they showed their faith in Jesus and the intense anxiety of their hearts for the present and future welfare of the little ones committed to their care. But the disciples could not see the need of interrupting the Master just for the sake of noticing the children, and as they were sending these mothers away Jesus rebuked the disciples and commanded the crowd to make way for these faithful mothers with their little children. Said He, “Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” To Be Like Jesus, Page 23

If you have experience with working with children, and want to join our Vacation Bible School team in Pokot, please register today! We are still accepting applicants for both our children's and medical teams.

Ministering To Children

Besides the medical component of our mission trip, we will be having a vacation bible school program for the children. It is important to minister to the precious little ones among us. The hearts of children yearn for love and understanding, and we seek to follow in the footsteps of the LORD in reaching the hearts of his smallest disciples.

"Jesus was a lover of children. He accepted their childish sympathy and open, unaffected love. The grateful praise from their lips refreshed His spirit when oppressed by contact with crafty and hypocritical men. Wherever He went, His gentle, kindly manner won their confidence.

It was customary for children to be brought to some rabbi, that he might lay his hands on them in blessing. But when the mothers came to Him with their little ones, the disciples looked on them with disfavor. They thought these children too young to be benefited by a visit to Jesus, and concluded that He would be displeased. But it was the disciples with whom He was displeased. The Saviour understood the burden of the mothers who were seeking to train their children. He Himself had drawn them into His presence."
From Heaven with Love, pg 342

Please join us in this mission! As we minister to the children, we minister to ourselves.

Give Yourselves To Service

 "My brethren and sisters, give yourselves to the Lord for service. Allow no opportunity to pass unimproved. Visit the sick and suffering, and show a kindly interest in them. If possible, do something to make them more comfortable. Through this means you can reach their hearts, and speak a word for Christ. Eternity alone will reveal how far-reaching such a line of labor can be. Other lines of usefulness will open before those who are willing to do the duty nearest them." Testimonies for the Church 9:36.

We are called to help the people of East Pokot. There are many who are sick and suffering, and as we move forward in the Pokot Mission project, we are still looking for a few more missionaries. If you are interested in joining us in service in July, please read more about the mission trip and apply today!
