ABOUT JOHN & MARTY Health issues have limited our visits to Kenya at present. Jeremy has now taken over the leadership of the ministry, with support from Life Church in Lichfield UK. John and Marty remain as part of the team in both a consultative role, together with oversight of certain functions operating from the USA. The focus of the ministry in Kenya is to serve destitute, senior widows who have no family to care for them and no means of support. Our desire is to help provide lives of dignity for these women in their declining years. We do this through contributions from loved ones, friends, and acquaintances. We also serve others through the ministry - poor or needy women, some men, and now additional ministry to children (orphans and non-orphans).
