Elyon Christian Mission

Anglican Aid is partnering with Elyon Christian Mission and the work they are doing in schools, supporting students and their families in Kenya, rural East Africa and informal settlements of Nairobi.

At the onset of COVID-19 in March 2020, Kenya and its surrounds have experienced significant socio-economic challenges. These problems have disproportionately affected the poor as they manage rising living costs despite depressed earning potential. 

Elyon is currently focused on providing education to children and young people, as these activities have the greatest strategic importance and the highest success rate of all the poverty and disease alleviation strategies that have been attempted.

Anglican Aid will support the work of Elyon Christian Mission by providing support to supplement the salaries of teachers. This will help the school maintain operation without passing on additional cost to students. Additionally, our funding will enable the school to provide one meal a day for students, directly alleviating strain on families.

Elyon High School intends to expand and relocate in the future into the Ulu area of Kenya which will improve their student capacity and facilities. 

In addition to the High School, Elyon Christian Mission delivers a broad range of aid including refugee care, education, health programs, income generation, and evangelism activities. Including:

  • Teaching trade skills like motor mechanics, carpentry, tailoring etc. and the Bible to neglected youth. 
  • Preaching the love of Jesus Christ in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and the Congo through crusades, and seminars.
  • Assisting 80-100 persons affected, infected with HIV/AIDS and Covid-19 in the community.
  • Providing food packages and medical care to refugees living in the slums.
  • Develop their administration to continue to do community development for communities in need.

Please pray for Elyon High School and Elyon Christian Mission as they deliver community development projects and Jesus’ grace to Kenya.
