The Pokot tribe is located along the border of western Kenya and Uganda, with a population of over 913,000. We work among the very remote villages located in North Pokot. Once you leave the few dirt roads that do exist and venture deep into the bush, you find many people who have never heard of the name of Jesus. The people have no medicine or schools; they cannot even read their own language. Many die at a very early age due to the many diseases and lack of nutrition. The average life expectancy is around the age of 40. In many places when someone dies, they are not even buried, but the bodies are thrown deep into the bush. Food is scarce and life is hard!
