Sunday Services

The church at the centre of it.

The congregation in Kahawa — the church that the academy, the college and the feeding program all belong to. Visitors are welcome.

Kahawa, Nairobi, Kenya

A church, a school, a Bible college, and a hot meal every day.

Jesus People Gospel Ministries is a church in Kahawa, Nairobi, Kenya, led by Pastor Simon & Joyce Nderitu. Alongside it stand Jepegomi Academy, the Contextual Bible Training College, and the Food at School program.

Worship, education, training, and a meal a child can count on. It is one ministry, and all of it is the work.

  • A man standing at a lectern reading to rows of seated children

    The church — the pupils' service in the sanctuary at Kahawa.

  • A long line of children in green uniform standing outdoors at assembly, a teacher reading to them

    The academy — morning assembly at the school in Kahawa.

  • Children in green uniform queueing along a wall, plates in hand

    Food at School — the lunch queue, every school day.

Current needs

Help us finish the kitchen

Every one of those meals is still cooked outdoors, over an open fire. A partner church in the United States gave $8,000 to replace the fires with a proper kitchen — the structure is up, and the finishing work is what's left.

  • The finished kitchen — plastered walls, a tiled roof and a chimney, standing in the school yard
  • A wood fire burning in the new jiko, a pot on the plate above it
  • Rows of red plates filled with rice and beans, laid out ready for the children

Get the children to school

The academy's van is off the road. The same partner church that built the kitchen has given a further $1,000 to repair it and bring it back.

Beyond that, the school has outgrown a van. A 26-seater bus carries it as it is now and leaves room for the children still to come, and the whole cost of it is still to raise.

Stand with the whole ministry

A gift to Jepegomi holds up all of it — the church on Sunday, the classroom on Monday, the college that trains the next teachers, and the meal a child eats at school tomorrow.
