Bishop Kiengei offers help to parents unable to educate their children as his fasting programme hits 33 day
By Charles Ouma, February 13, 2026Jesus Compassion Ministries (JCM) founder Benson Gathungu Kamau, popularly known as Bishop Benson Kiengei, has committed to helping three parents unable to see their children join grade 10.
The popular city preacher said that the initiative is in obedience to God’s command on compassion.
In a statement shared across his social media accounts on Friday, February 13, 2026, Kiengei shared that he woke up feeling generous after 33 days of fasting.
“In my 33rd day of prayer and fasting…I woke up feeling generous. God has commanded us to be sorrowful and compassionate, and that is my gospel,” Kiengei stated.
Compassion and philanthropy
Noting that his gospel is anchored on being sorrowful and compassionate, Kiengei asserted that he would come through for three parents.
“Nani anajua mzazi hajaweza kupeleka mtoto wa Grade 10 shule kwa kukosa pesa ama karo ya shule? Leo I dedicate my page to help three parents wapeleke watoto wao shule na nitahakikisha wamesoma… Details will help me a lot,” he added.
This loosely translates to: Anyone who knows a parent unable to enrol their child in Grade 10 due to financial challenges, please refer them to me. I dedicate my page today to helping three parents take their children to school, and I will ensure that this is accomplished.
Touching 40th birthday tribute
The preacher who recently celebrated his 40th birthday has been a blessing to many families.
He marked the day by renewing his commitment to the ministry, dedicating his 40 years of life to God.
“God…With all I have in me, I dedicate my 40 years in this life to you, under my 40 days in prayer and fasting, in the brokenness and finding the face of hope…here I meet my 40th birthday…” Kiengei stated.
“As I begin a new journey of walking the 4th Grace, continue walking with me, hold me right and tight, light my path, protect me from every evil decision, and restore the joy of my salvation. As you direct my compassionate spirit towards humanity, God… guide my true sense in serving you with all my soul and with all that I have,” he added.
He is known for his charismatic preaching, which attracts many followers both online and in his church as well as his philanthropy.
