Missions – Kenya

In Kenya, we support Dave Osborne. Dave helps boys and young men who are addicted to glue sniffing ( a way to manage their hunger). There is a home he has founded where the boys can live while trying to make changes in their lives. Many young men come and go. Others stay, and experience significant change.

Dave Osborne

Family of Hope, is a transition home, set up to help disciple boys who have lived on the street, and return them home with a relative when it is possible. We try to help them leave their addictions, become followers of Jesus, as well as productive Kenyan citizens. The boys live on campus during their discipleship.

Some of the current and past boys we have worked with.
Jackline used to sell glue to the boys, but Jesus changed her heart. Now she is our cook, and participates in prayer ministry with our boys!

When Dave visits the United States, he periodically comes to our church to encourage us, and speak about his work in Kenya. We have seen him to be a faithful and humble man.

Dave Osborne’s ministry website is at Family of Hope.

About Dave Osborne:

With both a seminary and psychology degree, having worked in as a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, as well as a couple of part time positions in churches, in his early 50’s, Dave felt God was calling him to move to Kenya and help boys who have been living on the street. He moved to Kenya in 2007, and for 12 years, has been the founding director of Family of Hope.
