Kingdom Entrepreneurs Are Driving Change.

In Kenya, GenePlus boosts dairy farming with advanced genetics, increasing milk production and incomes.

In Uganda, Pendeza Shelters turns plastic waste into eco-friendly materials, creating jobs and protecting the environment.

In Rwanda, Fred equips beekeepers with Kingdom business principles, improving honey production, creating jobs, and strengthening his community.

Get to the Roots of Poverty.

Where poverty exists, it fights growth. It poisons hope. The cycle goes on and on keeping everything the same. But it is also a place where one growing business could change an entire community.

You could be the difference.

Write a New Future.

People don't want handouts - they want opportunities.

When a business starts to thrive, it creates jobs where there were none. Employees can put food on the table, send their kids to school, and pay for healthcare. Basic human needs begin to be met all because a business exists. Simple as that.

Create a Spiritual Change.

It's not just business.

When entrepreneurs live out their faith through business, they share the gospel in word and action. They lead with integrity, treat employees with dignity, serve their communities, and support their local church—teaching others to do the same. By equipping these leaders, we’re not just growing businesses; we’re growing God’s kingdom and creating thriving communities.

Big Change Starts Small

We are Sinapis, named after the Latin word for mustard seed—small but full of potential, just like businesses that glorify God. In poverty-stricken areas, the climate is harsh, and survival is tough. But with Sinapis, growth starts from the ground up, creating lasting impact for generations.

Alex Wanyu

"When we started our Sinapis classes, we were asked to pick one business. I chose a new venture I was getting into - speaking. I would never have imagined that just over a year later I would be speaking on the biggest stage - TED. May this be a testimony that Kingdom business has a benefit here and in Heaven."

Robert A. Belle
