Weso Ministry

Western Outreach was launched on 16th November 1986 at the University of Nairobi
when a few Christian brethren who were students in the Universities within Nairobi
and came from Western Kenya met and formed what was then Western Students’
Outreach. The purpose and vision of forming WESO was based on Mark 3:14 “Then
He appointed twelve, that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to
preach….” The primary objective and vision of WESO was therefore to bring all
brethren students from Western Kenya into a fellowship, which would also spread the
word of God to Western Kenya and the rest of the world in general.
WESO grew both in numbers and scope and expanded to include brethren students in
Universities outside Nairobi and non-University brethren students from tertiary
institutions. Later, the members graduated from the Universities and tertiary
institutions, necessitating the leaders to convert WESO from being just a student
organization to a more general one.
