Benson Manyasa Tsuma – Kenya

Regional Director

As a young adult, Benson was invited by a friend named Charles to a crusade. After hearing about Jesus’ love for him, Benson decided he wanted a relationship with Jesus. Charles prayed with him, and he accepted Jesus into his life. He first heard about Young Life from a man working at the same orphanage as he was. When he heard about the mission of Young Life, Benson attended a leader training in Nairobi where he connected with other staff. Over the years, Benson has served in many roles within Young Life; today, he is the associate regional director in Western Kenya. Benson feels a calling to share the love of Jesus with the local youth and to be a part of the ways that God is using Young Life to reach lost kids.
