Mission Of the Month - Frontline Ministries, Kenya

      Frontline Ministries, led by John Maina, works with the women in Langata Prison in Nairobi, Kenya. Langata is the largest women’s prison in Kenya.

During the pandemic, they have continued to work with the women by providing Welfare Support, Legal Support, Evacuation Support, Psych-Spiritual Support, and Health Support.

      In addition, a number of the women have babies with them in prison, and Frontline assists the mothers in learning to care for their infants.

      Another program run by Frontline is the “Rescuing Rahab” ministry, a ministry designed to help young college ladies get out of the commercial sex trade. Frontline intervenes when the young ladies are arrested and are under probation. They provide one-on-one ministry by trained Christian women. They are encouraged to become a part of a support group and are eventually linked with Christian women in churches for ongoing support and integration into the life of the church. The ladies are trained to become entrepreneurs and are provided micro-loans to start a business. Their progress is monitored as they are provided psych-social support within the church.

      Frontline Ministries — Kenya is the Mission of the Month for January. When our Servant Teams went to Kenya, we always met with John Maina and his team, and we had the opportunity to visit the women in the prison. Please consider supporting them with your prayers. You may also support them financially through Bethel by directing your gift to “Frontline Ministries – Kenya.”
