You & Tabitha are Enabling Empowered Living in Kenya

Your support creates Empowered Living: Meet Tabitha Awuor, whose transformed ministry is bringing hope to her community. Through your generosity, you're empowering leaders like Tabitha across Kenya to live and serve with renewed purpose and impact.

Lives are being transformed in Siaya County, Kenya thanks to you, the EmPowered Living giving community and Tabitha Awuor.

In the past, Tabitha struggled to make a lasting impact. “I preached the Word of God, but there was little transformation in the lives of the believers,” Tabitha shares. But because of your commitment to empowered living through quality theological education, that’s all changed.

Your support made it possible for Tabitha to attend Dr. Gilbert’s teachings at ELIM. The result? “Since sitting under his and ELIM’s teaching, my life and ministry have been transformed. Now, when I minister the Word, I see transformation in the lives of the believers.”

Your generosity doesn’t just fund classes; it facilitates life-changing moments. During a lesson on forgiveness, Tabitha experienced profound healing. “An old wound was healed and my life transformed, I experienced freedom and God’s Spirit in a new way. Now, I am able to minister forgiveness to others.”

In a country facing significant economic challenges, your support of ELIM is providing hope and resilience. “Our lives here in Kenya are not easy. The economy is bad, there is a lot of suffering and stress.” But thanks to the spiritual strength she’s gained through your investment in ELIM, she’s better equipped to face these challenges.

“Being filled with the Spirit of God makes it easier to live victoriously,” Tabitha affirms. You have helped her develop a new approach to life’s difficulties: “Now I focus on God in total dependence and regularly ask Him to give me the strength to continue. He is always gracious to give me victory.”

You are creating a ripple effect of positive change. As Co-Prayer Coordinator and Instructor at ELIM Theological Institute, and a pastor in her local church, Tabitha is now passing on the transformative teachings you’ve provided to countless others in her community.

You are not just educating pastors; you’re empowering agents of transformation who bring hope, healing, and spiritual renewal to communities across Kenya and beyond.

Thank you!

Dr. Daniel & Mary Beth Gilbert
