Mexico
Ken has been vacationing in the Baja of Mexico annually since 1990. After his first trip to Africa in the Spring of 2017, God nudged Ken to start looking for a place to volunteer some time during his annual winter trip to Cabo San Lucas.
Ken had been Praying, calling around, checking with his friends in Cabo, and then, while attending the English speaking “Cabo Church” his first day in Mexico, his Prayers were answered. By “Divine intervention”, Ken met Donna at Church that morning, who is the founder & coordinator of “Feeding Kids Los Cabos”.
Two days later he was visiting one of the many kitchens & feeding kids out in the impoverished neighborhoods (Barriales). Ken began shopping with Donna & buying skids of food to help stock their storeroom. After the Pandemic, Ken started doing Magic shows(with an Interpreter) before serving meals to the children and their families. Today working together with “Coordinator Ken”, Donna & the many local volunteers, Uncle Ken Ministries continues to help stock the shelves purchasing many skids of food each visit. Ken also brings joy to the kids with a Gospel themed Magic Show(with an Interpreter of course),helps serve the kids their meals and now provides each child a Gift bags with essential items.
Uncle Ken Ministries also visited Puerto Vallarta the last couple years & along with a small team made arrangements to visit local Orphanages. We dropped by to entertain the kids, bring some simple gifts and order in pizza to feed the kids and staff.
