One of the two men who had heard John and had gone with Jesus was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter. The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother and tell him, “We have found the Messiah!”.
– John 1:40-41
Our evangelistic activities are inspired by this scripture as we reach out to the local church, schools and the local community at large.
One of our foundational values as a mission is Make God known. YWAM is called to make God known throughout the whole world, and into every arena of society through evangelism, training and mercy ministries. We believe that salvation of souls should result in transformation of societies by obeying Jesus’ command to make disciples of all nations.
In order to live out and apply this foundational value, all members of staff are involved in one way or the other in our weekly evangelistic outreaches to the neighboring communities and beyond. We team up with the local churches and go door to door in the villages or hold open air sermons in nearby market places.
Our base is located only 3 miles away from a major truck stop, where bars and prostitutes are many. Sharing God’s love and His salvation to our local community is thus a must.
We have been sending out small groups of staff and DTS students into the Masai community to minister there for a week or two. We visit the families of our pre-schoolers and share Christ with them. We also visit the families of our community based child sponsorship program and bring hope and encouragement to them.
If you are burning with a passion to reach the lost through this ministry, do not hesitate to contact us and you shall soon be on board with us.

Catherine KingIt was the 90s and I was 7 and 9 years ago. Just a missionary kid who was living a free life. I helped with chores. I made chapatis on the jiko. I sorted beans, peeled potatos. Used machetes to chop the grass to help keep away snakes. We played football or soccer when the ball wasn't deflated by acacia thorns. The rest of the time we dug holes and played mancala in the dirt with stones. Or went wandering looking for impala, giraffe or elephants in the shadow of LuKenya. My parents taught DTS, leadership training courses, PCYM, led King's Kids and other activities. It was a great experience for our family as well as the many short term missions we hosted.
Brother Sam KitalyaA great place for training in discipleship and bonus of wildlife experience. Zebras, Giraffes, Warthog and Antelope roams. Truly a great sight and bird watching as well.

Vicent A. Kazungu (Baba Theo_Jedd)YWAM AthiRiver the mother of many YWAM bases/location in East Africa and Central Africa it is a beautiful place to be. They have a game pack on their land where you can see giraffes, antelopes, zebras and many coolest jungle livers. Being part of the YWAM global family they are involved in doing Mercy ministries, training programs and evangelism. You will enjoy your time whenever you visit them. Wonderful hospitality, warm friends from all over the world and environment will capture your attention. With these few words I therefore recommend YWAM AthiRiver as a place to be. Karibu!
David OryangAway from the clamour of urban life, this YWAM Base is an ideal getaway for one to be able to detach and zoom-in on the more important things of life - especially concerning Christ & God. Did I mention the abundance of giraffe, wildebeest, zebra, etc just close by in the bush-bush?
