Be part of transforming Africa through servant leadership and faithful Bible teaching
Get involved
There’s loads of ways to get involved as we share the vision and burden with our friends in Kenya for training the next generation in servant leadership and faithful Bible teaching. This year’s big project is the new Leadership Centre – see more information below.
Find out how you can get involved and be partners with them.
Give financially
iServe Africa in Kenya has proven to be extremely effective in raising faithful servant leaders. There is a wide open door for gospel work in Kenya and there are consistently more opportunities than resources to take those opportunities. Increased funding would allow them to take on more apprentices, more placements and more gospel workers for training. iServe Africa aim to become self-sufficient through local funding and income generation over the medium-long term but in the meantime partnerships with mission-hearted givers in the UK make a huge difference. You can give tax efficiently through the UK Trust and all donations go to iServe Africa (minus very small administrator costs).
Pray
The team in Kenya are working incredibly hard to recruit, train and send out apprentices, high school leavers and gospel workers but they are also very well aware that “unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labour in vain.” They would be hugely grateful for your partnership in prayer to our Father.

Connect in person
iServe Africa would love to meet you face to face and get to know you. In particular they’d be interested to discuss:
- Visiting Kenya – as an individual or church group – there’s likely to be plenty you could be involved in and get to see at iServe Africa;
- Hosting a Kenyan trainee – each year a small number of Kenyans who have completed two years of ministry apprenticeship are sent to the UK to benefit from further ministry training opportunities in a cross-cultural context. If your church might be able to host a trainee they would be interested in exploring a possible partnership in that way.

Training Centre Project
The Training Centre Project is an very exciting opportunity for iServe Africa – fulfilling many needs in one. They purchased land just outside Nairobi (no mean feat!) in 2014 and in 2017 the team moved in.
The plan has always been to provide three things:
- A training facility – especially residential gospel ministry training for apprentices and high school leavers.
- A home for iServe Africa – operations and administration.
- A sustainable future – income generation from hire of facilities to local groups for residential conferences.
Phase 1 is complete and phase 2 is on-going – to add a new hall (seating 300 rather than the current 70 capacity), new kitchen and new accommodation facilities. Please consider whether this is something you or your church would want to invest in as a wonderful kingdom initiative for current and future generations.
