Martin Nga’nga Mbuthia – Kenya

Area Director

Martin Mbuthia is outgoing, friendly, creative, and caring. He is an incredible Young Life leader who does ministry in Kiamwangi, Central Kenya. He first learned about Young Life in 2010, when a close friend invited him to a Young Life event. After seeing all of the fun that kids had at Young Life while hearing about Jesus, he was hooked and couldn’t wait to get involved. He started to attend trainings and events, and then was able to serve as work crew at a local camp. He then brough his own Young Life kids to soccer camp, which began a beautiful story. Martin went on staff for Young Life Kenya because he feels like his work is only just beginning. When Martin faces the challenges of ministry, he remembers the moments in which he’s seen kids dedicate their lives to Christ and knows that all the challenges are totally worth it. Now, Martin runs a Wyldlife Club for Fara Primary School as well as a Neighborhood Club. He is excited to see what the Lord will continue to do through Young Life in Kenya.
