On 26th July 2025, PIPES International celebrated the official launch of the Living Water Transformation Center. This special day brought together leaders, partners, and community members to dedicate the center to God’s service and to celebrate a new chapter of hope and transformation.
The center will serve as a hub for discipleship, training, counseling, and community outreach. It is a place where people will be empowered, equipped, and reminded of the love of Christ. The launch was filled with joy, worship, and thanksgiving as we envisioned the lives that will be transformed through this initiative.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has prayed, supported, and partnered with us to make this dream a reality. The Living Water Transformation Center is now open, and we look forward to the many testimonies that will flow from here.

United in purpose: Center commissioned and summer 2025 mission highlights

Together with Harvester Christian Church, PIPES International Kenya has witnessed lives touched, hearts transformed, and hope restored in powerful and practical ways. Every prayer, word of encouragement, and act of support has played a vital role in this mission. A key highlight was the official launch of the Living Water Transformation Center in Namanga—a space dedicated to community outreach, discipleship, empowerment, and holistic ministry. We believe this center will serve as a hub of revival and lasting transformation, not only in Kenya but across Africa. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our partners, Tyrel and Shanna Denver of Argento Lux, for allowing God to use them to bring this dream to reality. 


Serving the Maasai of Kenya
One of the countries we serve in East Africa is Kenya. We are currently invested among the indigenous Maasai of Kenya serving to bring holistic transformation in this community. The Maasai tribe is an indigenous ethnic group found in Kenya and Tanzania. The Maasai people keep cattle, which make up the primary source of food. In their traditional belief, the more cattle and children one has, the wealthier one is.

Short History of the Maasai Community.
Maasai people are semi-nomadic and travel from place to place, looking for green pastures and water for their livestock. The Maasai have held on to distinct traditions, customs, and dress codes. They wrap a leso (shuka) cloth around the body. The older generation firmly holds to old customs even though younger generations have dropped some customs, especially on dress codes. Their population is about 900,000.
The Maasai tribe lives in traditionally made houses called Manyattas. They use local materials to construct their houses. The houses are either circular or loaf-shaped and are predominantly built by women. Their villages are enveloped in a circular fence built by the men to protect their cattle at night from wild animals.

The Maasai community is firmly patriarchal. Men lead the families and make the decisions. The Maasai people are monotheistic and believe in their God called "Engai or Enkai," who lives in the mountain. They love music.
PIPES started engaging with the Maasai community in 2020 in holistic transforming. Our staff engage with the community daily training them and establishing saving groups, creating health awareness on hygiene and sanitation, and discipling those who want to grow their faith in Christ.  

Holistic Transformation of Indigenous Communities

Since we began working with the Maasai community in 2022, we have witnessed tremendous change in the lives of the local community. The borehole (water well) serves more than 400 people who water their cattle and use the water for domestic use as well. Tens of families have learned how to farm and are now growing crops in their own farms. We now sponsor tens of children in high school, primary, and TVET. We also provide job opportunities for local youth and women at our facility.  

Soccer Tournament

Each community has a unique context. Empowering youth among the Maasai people is critical as men make most decisions. To transform the youth, we initiated soccer tournaments, a game loved in this community like the rest of Kenya. Through this tournament we discuss topics affecting young people, empower them to succeed in school and teach them the Bible.
