After years of living and working in Canada, Dickson Muriithi returned to his homeland of Kenya, where he was deeply moved by the struggles of neglected children, disillusioned youth, and disengaged fathers in Tharaka Nithi County. Having lived & worked in Canada for 20 years, Dickson felt called to make a difference. When God opened the doors for him and his family to serve with Kenya Youth For Christ and DADCAMP Kenya, he found his true ministry calling. Even before completing two years of service in Kenya, it became clear that his heart was being drawn back to his ancestral community of Mugumango, where the challenges facing children and youth were even more pressing.
In Mugumango, many children were failing their national standardized exams, preventing them from advancing to high school or university. Without education, these children faced a grim future – often dropping out of school and falling into harmful habits like loitering in village shopping centres, chewing khat, or visiting illicit brew dens. Dickson knew it was time to act and focus on providing opportunities to transform their lives.
Through faith in Jesus, Dickson has launched initiatives to change the trajectory of these young lives. His soccer ministry integrates Biblical teachings, building a community of believers among children and youth. A volunteer-driven educational support program offers tutoring, homework assistance, and daily morning prayers, while providing nutritious breakfast to help kids start their day strong — sometimes their only meal of the day.
The goal is to nurture a generation of well-rounded individuals who embody godliness in all spheres of society. These children will have powerful testimonies of God’s grace, a passion to reach their lost peers, and the courage to guide others toward hope and redemption.
Join us in this mission of faith, love, and hope. Your prayers and support can help change the lives of these children, ensuring they have a chance to build a brighter, God-centered future.
May The Lord bless you as you bless the next generation!
Shalom from Kenya!
