Total Salvations: 83 (70 men and 13 women)
Total Restorations: 48

Total Number Reached: 378
Challenges Faced
Lack of Trust in the Church
High Rate of Drug Abuse: Engaging with the target group required significant effort due to prevalent substance abuse.
High Poverty Levels
Lack of Basic Education
Way Forward
The church (ABC Lagas) needs to plan evangelism activities more often, incorporating youth activities and discussions on the effects of drug abuse
Need to plan for a 3 full day’s activity, the population is very high
3We created a WhatsApp chat group to unite the youths around Lagas town, especially those struggling with drug abuse, and we plan to introduce online discipleship class in future
Names and phone numbers of people saved/restored will be given to ABC Lagas for follow up
We are grateful for the great things that the Lord is doing in Kenya. Stay tuned for more updates and stories from Manee Kenya.
