Emmanne Ministries was birthed out of friendship between a Kenyan and an American.

Emmanne Ministries was birthed out of friendship between a Kenyan and an American. We have imperfectly shaped this ministry from an insatiable desire to “do good” in the world. Doing good is a biblical idea. Its root is in following Jesus, the greatest example of doing good in history. So we have gone to Theri, and we have set up a ministry that is built on the idea of actively and tangibly loving people.

01

FOUNDATION

Over an all-you-can-eat lunch at the Country Buffet in Englewood, Colorado, Mwangi Ndegwa shared his story with new friend, Matthew Bachali.

02

PLANNING

Mwangi and Matthew formed a non-profit in the U.S., flew to Kenya to explore the need, and returned with a simple plan… begin with the “least of these,” the orphans of Theri.

03

TRUE HELP

The first eleven beautiful children were placed in the 300 square foot home with two staff members that were tasked to give love and care.

We are given the joy-filled responsibility of caring for a neighbor in need. We move in to the Theri neighborhood and we act.

We've set up a ministry that is built on the idea of actively and tangibly loving people.
