Joel was known on the streets of Nairobi ,Tall, quiet, and worn down by life, he had mastered survival—but not living. Each day felt heavy, and hope had become something distant.
One day, after reaching his lowest point, Joel showed up at Kanisa Mtaani.
That day, the preacher was Matt Greenhalgh visiting from Australia. In his hands was a photo, and with it, a powerful story. He shared about Brother Simon Kiani man who had once lived on the streets of Brisbane and whose life had been completely transformed.
As Matt preached, something stirred in Joel.
“If God did it for Simo… even all the way in Brisbane… He can do it for me here in Nairobi.”
For the first time in a long while, Joel responded. His tall frame stood out as his hand shot up. He came forward for prayer—no hesitation, just faith rising.
That moment changed everything.
Joel enrolled into the rehab program. The journey wasn’t easy, but he stayed committed. Step by step, he began to rebuild his life.
Last month, Joel graduated.
Now, he’s dreaming again. His goal is to work in VIP security and protection. And we we will hold his hand , as he prepares for his next chapter.
That’s the reason we go out—because one story, one moment, one encounter can spark a completely new life.
