God anoints a special person to complete his mission and deliver his message to every generation. This is what God has done with Pastor David Oloo. He has called him for the people of Homa Bay in Kenya. He draws strength from the message of the second greatest commandment which instructs Christians to love their neighbors as they love themselves.
David obeyed the call from the Lord and by working hard, he established an orphanage gradually between 2005 and 2008. The aim of the orphanage was to take in children whose parents had succumbed to HIV/AIDS. He took guidance from his father, Bishop Nashon when he began working with a group of fifteen orphans. Over time, a growing number of orphans in the area has made it inevitable to expand the home.
The ministry has strained over time since the needs of children under his care have been growing. Older children within the home require more than shelter, clothing and food. The community requires the home to admit more children. His last resort at the moment is to appeal to well wishers to support his work so that no child seeking his assistance will be turned away empty handed or those already under his care go hungry.
The number of children in the orphanage has been rising steadily and has gone beyond 25. It is no longer easy to effectively cater for their needs without straining or to guarantee a future for them. The need to assist families bearing the burden of adopting children orphaned by HIV/AIDS has been pronounced by the need to end the cycle of poverty in these families. This servant of God has taken up the responsibility.
Pastor Oloo has given up his youth to serve the orphans and his ministry. Having given his all to the children and the ministry, his strength and resources are also overstretched. He learnt ministry and has worked as a senior pastor at Christ Faith Evangelic Church. This has seen the ministry grow by leaps and bounds. This ministry is in fact in the process of transforming.
Christ Faith Evangelical Church has taken a new route to enhance its effectiveness in delivering the gospel. It has transformed into Good Shepherd House of Worship. The aim of this transformation is to provide a holy place for worshipers to encounter God instead of sticking with the conservative idea of a church. The shift is inspired by the change in name when Saul became Paul in order to deliver the message of God better.
Homa Bay is in the western part of Kenya, a country that is endowed with ethnic and religious diversity. The people of the country are incredibly hopeful and kindhearted. Their beauty is enhanced by that of their landscape. However, it is impossible for them to experience this beauty and fully express their kindness under the burden of poverty and sickness. Pastor Oloo seeks to transform this gloom into cheers with the assistance of well wishers.
Donor funds received by the ministry in the past have been administered in a very transparent manner. The projects initiated by this servant of God have been beneficial to numerous children. Donors who found time to visit the place were very impressed by his progress. It is only through well wishers that children in Homa-Bay have come to see the God in their daily life.
