God raises a servant for every generation to fulfill his will for the people. This is what He has done with Pastor David Oloo. The servant of God was called at a young age to minister to afflicted people in Homa-Bay, Kenya. His ministry work is guided by the scripture that instructs all humanity to love one another as one loves him or herself.
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.
With limited resources and an ever growing demand the ministry has been strained. The elder children in the home require more than food, shelter and clothing. New children are coming into the home. This has sent the care givers into a frantic search for resources to ensure that the children under their care never walk hungry or naked. The servant of God also wants to ensure that no one coming to him for assistance will return empty handed.
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 faithfully dedicated his youth to the ministry and especially the orphans. His strength and resources cannot meet the needs of these children yet his heart bears the greatest responsibility. Christ Faith Evangelical Church has taught him the need for service and is now in the process of transforming to serve the people better.
The new name referring to what was previously Christ Faith Evangelical Church is Good Shepherd House of Worship. The aim of this change is to enable the faithful to encounter Christ closely as opposed to the traditional church setting. A new phase in delivering the message of God has demanded a new name, just like Saul changed to Paul.
The religious and ethnic diversity in Kenya has been viewed as a blessing. The beauty of its landscape is matched by a population that is both hopeful and kindhearted. However, this beauty fails to shine when a large number is suffering from sickness and poverty. It is upon the efforts of Pastor Oloo and well wishers to keep the smile on the faces of afflicted families and especially children.
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.
