Home | McCray Ministries

Founded in 1985, the Jan McCray Ministries, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit

charitable organization that works with widows, orphans, and vulnerable

children in the rural villages of Naikarra and Leshuta in Kenya, Africa.

Our Mission

The mission of the Jan McCray Ministries is simple:

That the church should honor widows and orphans by showing God’s love and care for them. Throughout Scripture we see God’s heart for the fatherless and the widows, and James 1:27 makes very clear the mandate to care for both. “Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you.”

There is a tremendous blessing in serving and standing up for orphans and widows. It is to that end that the Jan McCray Ministries built the House of Love orphanage in Leshuta where 36 orphaned girls are provided with a loving home. In addition, we currently support 40 widows in Naikarra.

Widow's Ministry

One of the most neglected groups of people in today’s African society are the widows. It is estimated that one in ten women in Africa above the age of 14 is widowed. Presently the JMM cares for over 40 widows each month through our widow’s outreach program.
