Everywhere we go in Kakamega people know Bishop Simeon Obayo. There are a lot of bishops (pastors) in Kenya, but Simeon is The Bishop. Today, we held a 50th anniversary celebration for both he and his wife Momma Mary at Kakamega high school. It was a grand affair with people […]
It’s the final day of the Shinyalu medical camp and I have one more inspiring story to share. One of the most common problems here in this village is poor eyesight. Really, it’s not any more prevalent than anywhere else in the world; there is simply no access to a […]
Today was a very difficult day in Shinyalu. We saw things that cannot be unseen. We experienced things that will leave a lasting impression on our minds of the great needs here among the people of Kenya. Dr. George Matimbai (our head doctor for WorldComp medical camps) tells me these […]
Our week in Nairobi was incredible, but we are pressing on to Western Kenya for the second medical camp of our trip, and to honor our great friend Simeon Obayo on his 50th wedding anniversary and retirement from ministry. Our first stop was Kakamega PEFA church for Sunday morning worship. […]
They say cleanliness is next to godliness. The Bible doesn’t say that, but all truth is God’s truth and tidiness is the truth. I’ve never seen a cleaner space in all of Kenya than the WorldComp Home of Grace Orphanage. In Kenya, there is chaos everywhere; people hanging out of […]

Tears were flowing down my face as I walked into the Kibera Children’s Center to the joyful singing of children. I couldn’t stop crying for the next 10 minutes. I must’ve looked like the leaking “Mzungu” (white man). Every Christmas Eve, for the past 7 years, at Westside church, I […]
The conclusion to the Kimbo medical outreach is behind us now, but I wanted to share some final thoughts with all of you. The sum total of patients treated during the three days reached just over 3,000. Dr. George Matimbai informed me this figure is a minimal number. By the […]
We just finished up the second day at the Kimbo medical camp outreach. We were able to see 1,100 patients today bringing our two-day total to 2,000. It is truly exhausting work. There are hundreds of people who are given the diagnosis and the medication they desperately need, but there […]
It’s day two of the three day Kimbo medical camp outreach. Kimbo is a poor village some ten miles outside of Nairobi, Kenya. The people here are in such desperate need of medical treatment. WorldComp has been conducting medical camps throughout Kenya for the past eight years and we are […]
