By Barbara L. Klika, MSW, Undershepherd, Set Apart Ministries A New SAM Praise House in Kenya!
up on our behalf. It looks like there so many problems hith- erto unseen in our country- floods, unexplained fires, road carnage etc . We don't know, but looks like YHWH is not happy with our country. (Sept 2024). Shalom, Barb. It’s great to know you, just like us here had a wonderful and joyous feast. We had a full house and attendance was more than 160 here alone in Limuru.
Year-End 2025 I am pleased and thankful to tell you about the newest SAM assembly in Nayahururu, Kenya and their new praise house! It has been quite a while since I mentioned our Kenya SAM here, so I will provide some background info. There is more history available on our website: https://set-apart-ministries.org/kenya-set-apart-ministries/
When I was able to visit them in 2011, there were 12 assem- blies and I visited 8 of them.
Ruach’s leading to provide a base of funding for this new build- ing, all Praise to our Elohim!
Kindly add a friend of mine in the prayer request. Her 20 year old daughter was murdered by unknown assailants on her way home around 7 pm. The parents, who are believers, have been our friends for like 30 years. The incident happened in Nakuru County, Subukia division.
There have been 17 assemblies in Kenya, 2 newer ones in Uganda and 1 in Tanzania. All praise to Messiah! We often laugh because Yahweh’s Set Apart Ministries in Kenya is bigger than we are in the US! We are united in purpose to encourage
It happened quickly when Peter wrote that they had found a piece of land in a distress sale, at a good price, on a road that didn’t turn into mud.
people to come to and mature in Messiah. They have many of the same kinds of personal and family challenges people face here, plus the additional aspects of deep political corrup- tion and danger t’hat we had not known in America, until these past few years anyway. When I was there, their patience under duress amazed and blessed me! In about 2007, Elder Peter Ndungu Warari found us online and contacted us, with the sense that it was important for him to connect with Set Apart Ministries. He has long had a vi- sion of outreach and evangelism and has been a tireless prayer intercessor and traveler. He
Shalom in the Name above all names. We do hope and pray all is well with you. We con- tinue to pray for Bob’s healing and mention Barb in our prayers. Attached is the work in progress. Plans change but purpose remains constant. Initially we intended to build like the last attachment. Four courses of bricks and other materials after that. Such would require more work in a few years. So we decided to complete the work as a permanent building. It will take more time and more resources but it will a once for all time. If and when we do roofing, we have all the win- dow panes. We will look for doors and brethren
will immediately start congregating in there. We will do plaster and the rest in due course. And hopefully connect to electricity too or have a solar system. May you be blessed and may you all have an easy fast. Blessings. Peter. (Nov 2025). We are now at roofing stage of the Praise House. Here at- tached are a few photos. Hopefully by end next week, the roof will be in place YHWH willing. Blessings to you all. Peter. Give our love to ***&***. Without them, this good work would have never started. May Abba bless them abundantly! So we ARE blessed and encouraged at being a part of how our Abba is building up His family of set apart believers in Kenya as well as here in America. They are working while it is yet day, being also very aware of the lateness of the hour and the mount- ing chaos in our world system. If you would like to be a part of encouraging these new as- semblies, please contact us! In the meantime, through the world system darkness, and the unknowns about the comets heading our way as I write, may we both follow Messiah’s Light and BE His Light to those around us.

is building on a base of 7th Day Church of God from back in the ‘70s. He officially established his group of about 6 assemblies as Yahweh’s Set Apart Ministries of Kenya in 2009. He has con- tinued to travel and meet and encourage people in our faith in Messiah Yeshua/Jesus. He has a network of elders that cover each assembly and work with him. We share resource and teaching materials with them and regularly pray for one another and our needs, as connected through our online prayer ministry chain. Whenever we get inquiries from Kenya through our web- site, I refer them to Elder Peter who vets them and offers help as needed. In this way, we can rest assured that the funds and resources we provide get into the right hands. Peter is currently
The police are yet to make any progress in their investigations. Of course we have witnessed people getting lost, others ab- ducted and young people killed. Clearly there is an increase in violence. We pray daily for peace to prevail. We have helped one another with the deceased father even before she was born. We have been yoked together for 25 to 30 years. If anything, pray for these parents! (April 2025).
But he isn’t done yet! Earlier this year, he had written to us of their excitement about a new group they were meeting with in
oljororok, Nyahururu, and that they had just baptized four young men there. He and the SAM elders had prayerfully committed to providing them a praise house of their own within a year as they were ter- ribly cramped into a small rental building. They have been this route before and it isn’t always easy to obtain land and permits.
We have started paying for a plot of land in Bungoma. The vendor had agreed to be paid in instalments. We paid the equivalent of usd 800. Later the vendor changed mind and wants the balance in lumpsome. The balance is the equivalent of USD1500. We don't have an idea when we will have that money.
training a few young men to take over his role when he can no longer travel.
A little history: Shalom Barb: Just got home late. We spent the day talking to a group in a remote part of Nairobi but thanks to YHWH, we are home safe. It is understood that all given to ministry is for ministerial work. All materials contained in the laptop you sent us are intact. Njenga is very helpful in matters ministry and has our blessings to print and teach .He handles some staff for me. Right now I have such a need for a laptop. You can rest assured it or they will be used solely for ministry work. I have had that feeling I need an office where I can have all my stuff and I can read and respond to mails every morning. Right now am typing over the phone and it's tedious. (August 2018). Shalom, Barb: Hopefully the information was helpful. Our ac- counts are totally depleted. The cost of living in Kenya is really high…With the regular monthly donation, we may build first and foremost the pit latrine. The pit is already dug and not yet cov- ered. We can’t have enough words to express our gratitude. Thank you very much and Yahweh bless you all. (May 2023). All is well this end. We have been extremely busy. As of now, we have four young congregations, one in Kitale, one in MaaiMahiu, and another in Ngondi, around Lake Naivasha. The last one is in Moi Ndabi. We are all preparing for the upcoming feasts. If anything, we so much appreciate prayers. Keep them going
There is a difference between the western/Greek way of thinking and interpreting Scripture and the Hebraic worldview context that our Father chose to usher in our Messiah. The foundation of the Old Testament gives us what we need to correctly understand all that happens in and since the New Testament times. Join in with us for a topical Bible study that identifies the context of the Hebrew worldview and how it is that we have come to believe that the WHOLE Bible remains relevant and necessary for us today. The WHOLE Bible Is Relevant!
The existing Praise House except Limuru need some touch ups. We are working on the Kipipiri Praise House. The Nakuru Praise House too needs finishing and paints. Give our love to all our SAM brothers and sisters. We really can do with some help. (May 2025). I am trying to attach some pictures of the as- sembly in Oljororok, Nyahururu. The rental place is very congested. (August 2025). We have been sponsoring Yahweh’s SAM since 2007, and only by Abba’s grace and provision helped them build their main building in Limuru and we introduced them to another ministry that provided an orphanage building in Nakuru for them. Of course, this new need and prayerful promise to provide a praise house within a year was on our SAM prayer chain ministry and a couple who have helped before, preferring not to be named, among our participants around the country felt the
