About Kenya - Mombasa
Iris Kenya has a mandate from God to plant churches, reach out to the poor, stop for the one, and to spread the Gospel and love of Jesus wherever we go.
Iris Kenya is passionate about planting churches and raising up disciples in the communities we serve. We made the small village of Kilifi about 35 miles north of Mombasa our center of ministry and from there, we travel all throughout the region preaching the Good News and sharing the joy we have in Jesus. As our church congregations have grown we have expanded our ministry programs to accommodate the ever-changing needs of the people. We are committed to seeing the Kingdom of God take root in this area to change lives for eternity.
We want to eradicate poverty from the communities we work in so we started a village empowerment project, Village of Peace. We serve the children in our community who might never have the opportunity to attend school. Without a good education which will help them earn a livable wage when they are older, the cycle of poverty and despair they live in now will continue to destroy any hopes they have for a brighter future. Our program extends to help widows and elderly people who are caught up in this cycle and, with insufficient food to eat, are often sick and unable to provide for themselves. We want to empower them to break away from this cycle of poverty and despair by educating the children, providing food for widows, and making sure undernourished babies receive the food they need to grow healthy and strong. We set up projects that empower and encourage self-sustainability, teaching the unemployed skills, such as sewing and organic farming - skills they will be able to use at home and to earn an income. We know that with God on our side, we will be able to empower our people to become all that God has called them to be.
We seek out those not attending church by conducting regular outreaches to share the Gospel and inviting them to attend church.
Our ladies regularly get together to pray, have Bible studies, and do outreaches. Children's Ministry is conducted every Saturday at the main church where over 100 children receive Bible teaching, are prayed for, play games, and have lunch together.
Each month we distribute a parcel of basic food items and we also stop for the one by visiting those too frail to attend church.

Jesus's Faithfulness and Love for the Least
The past couple of months, we’ve witnessed Jesus’s faithfulness and His love for the least of these. We had been praying about starting feeding programs in the villages that we serve and the Lord has provided the means to do so! We have been able to start feeding programs in 6 of the villages and feed hu...
Jesus's Mercy and Love for the Lost!
This past month we met a teenage girl named Sofia at the market. She was with her 9 month old baby and was asking for some food and diapers. We purchased what she needed and proceeded to share the gospel with her. She was dressed in full Muslim attire so we could only see her eyes. We asked if she wanted...
Humbled by the grace of God
Dear friends, We send our greetings and pray His love continues to flourish as we stay in His presence. Once more we are humbled by His Grace and mercy each day. These 2 weeks have been exciting as we had our friends and Teachers Jan and Ken from Australia doing teachings to our Iris Pastor...
