Celebrating Achievements & Looking Ahead to 2025

I wanted to take the time to update you on what we’ve accomplished so far this year. This is not just a reflection of what the Nehemiah Entrepreneurship Community has done, but what your investment of time, talent, and treasure has helped us accomplish.

As always, thank you and please continue to keep us in your prayers!

Last week, we successfully held our annual virtual Christian conference, Nehemiah Week on the theme of Kingdom Innovation and Technology. This year’s conference was a 5-day affair that featured 4 events: the Kingdom Business (Virtual) Tour,  the Training & Coaching Conference, the Global Kingdom Investors Forum, and last but definitely not least, the 2024 International Business Plan Competition. With a total of 326 registrations from 23 different countries, Nehemiah Week continues to be one of our most exciting and fruitful conferences which also marks our transition into our end-of-year preparation.

You wouldn’t believe who won the 2024 International Business Plan Competition—yes, Kenya has claimed victory for the 5th year in a row, with this year’s winning entrepreneur Lewis Njoroge!

Congratulations to Frank Kitonga, and his team for their outstanding performance. Competing against Kenya (representing Africa) was a representative from France (representing Europe), representatives from India (representing Asia Pacific), and a representative from Mexico (representing Latin America). Although every representative did a fantastic job in showcasing their Kingdom Business Plan, only one can be crowned as this year’s winner.

What’s next for Nehemiah Week? Happening from August 18th to August 22nd, 2025, Nehemiah Week 2025 will tackle the theme of Kingdom Business and Mental Health.

As we approach the final 4 months of the year, I wanted to provide you with an update on our progress over the last 8 months.

So far, the Nehemiah Entrepreneurship Community has:

  • Served 4,600 entrepreneurs across more than 50 countries through our membership community.
  • Trained nearly 2,000 new entrepreneurs across 54 countries.
  • Engaged with close to 700 entrepreneurs through our live and digital events.
  • Provided over 500 coaching hours
  • Raised $450K in new investments for a Kingdom company.
  • Partnered with three educational institutions (two colleges and one high school) and served close to 40 teens and adults through the Biblical Entrepreneurship and Young Biblical Entrepreneurship training.
  • Served 20 Churches through the Sustainable Church Initiative
  • Visited Malaysia with one of our board members and his wife to conduct training, coaching, and a Kingdom Business Tour.
  • Generated $660K in income to date, with 34% from earned income and 66% from contributions.
  • Launched a Virtual Business Coach named Solomon using AI to provide 24/7 free coaching to our members. You can reach Solomon by calling 866-954-8291. However, bear in mind that we are still training Solomon so any feedback would be appreciated.
  • Launched a for-profit sister company to model a Kingdom business and serve as a complementary economic engine for Nehemiah’s long-term funding.

We are excited about the next 4 months as we prepare to close out the year with even greater impact while laying the groundwork for 2025.

Special thanks to all of you—without your support, we would not be able to serve Christian entrepreneurs in over 50 countries and prepare the next generation of entrepreneurs in colleges and high schools. Also, my thanks go out to our dedicated staff and board of directors who work tirelessly to ensure that our mission is realized.

We will be connecting with some of you in the coming months to share more, answer any questions, and gather your perspectives on our current strategy. In the meantime, feel free to let us know if you have any questions or input.

Serving with Love,
