Yesu Ni Bwana

Sharing the love of Jesus Christ in Tanzania

Orphan Care (Mimi's Kids)

In 2006, Yesu Ni Bwana, Inc and Edson and Renda Knapp in cooperation with Makwale Baptist Church and the Baptist Convention Tanzania completed and opened a safe home to provide care for some of the many children left orphaned by the AIDS epidemic in Sub Saharan Africa and in particular the Kyela District of Tanzania one of the most devastated districts Tanzania.

High School Bible Study

In 2008, Yesu Ni Bwana, Inc., began a partnership with Matama Beach High School in Matama, Tanzania. As Matama Beach High School has grown, so has our Bible teaching program there. Today, over 600 students, Form 1 through Form 4 participate in weekly Bible study as part of the school curriculum.

Evangelism and Church Planting

At the heart of all we do at Yesu Ni Bwana, Inc is a desire to share the Good News of redemption and salvation through faith in Jesus Christ with the people of Tanzania. In cooperation with the Baptist Convention Tanzania we support evangelists/church planters who are full time workers in this ministry.

Short Term Mission Trips

For many Christians, one of the most exciting things they ever do is take a short term mission trip; especially if the trip is to some place they may otherwise never visit. To meet, work with, and encourage fellow Christians from a new and different culture and to worship in a new and exciting way can be the experience of a lifetime. At least once a year we try to provide that experience for some of our brothers and sisters here in the U.S.

MTAM Ministry Farm

In 2018, as a partner with our principle advisors in Tanzania, Yesu Ni Bwana, Inc. helped purchase a 120 acre farm. Our dream is that this farm will become a complete working commercial farm providing a livelihood for our friends Moses and Tunosye Mboya as well as opportunity for young men who prefer farming as an occupation to learn how to be profitable farmers.

Give to Yesu Ni Bwana

At the heart of all we do at Yesu Ni Bwana, Inc is a desire to share the Good News of redemption and salvation through faith in Jesus Christ with the people of Tanzania. In cooperation with the Baptist Convention Tanzania we support evangelists/church planters who are full time workers in this ministry.

For more than 25 years Southern Baptist missionaries Doug and Evelyn Knapp ministered and raised their family among the Nyakyusa people of Tanzania. Their amazing work and the great movement of God’s Spirit among the people of Southwest Tanzania is well chronicled in their book, Thunder in the Valley.

All the work of Yesu Ni Bwana, Inc. has grown out of the great love Doug and Evelyn and their family have for the Nyakyusa people and have passed on to me during many days together in the beautiful Kyela Valley.

I am eternally grateful for this family.
