On Thursdays, at 7:30 am- 8:30 am, in partnership with Richmond Food Bank, we serve breakfast to the students of Blundell elementary school in our neighborhood. Some kids from this community are from low income families.

Breakfast Club Canada says, “roughly one in five kids go to school on empty stomach”. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day that gives noursihment to brains for learning and function well at school. If you would like to serve breakfast and demonstrate the love and compassion of our Lord Jesus Christ to little kids, this is an amazing ministry to get involved.

Every Christmas, the Agape Christmas Hamper team of Richmond Baptist demonstrates the love of God by distributing about 200 Christmas Hampers to needy families in our community.

Apollo Midigo – Bio

Apollo was born in Kakamega Kenya in 1958. He was raised in a non-Christian home but growing up was given permission to attend church. His mother's parents were born again Christians and prayed consistently for Apollo. When he was 13 years old, Apollo had a Christian teacher who invited him to attend a crusade in the village. It was at that crusade that he learned that spending eternity in heaven could not be earned by obeying and following his parent's authority, which he had thought all his life. He came to the full realization of his need for Christ in his life and accepted Him as his Savior.

Soon after accepting Christ, Apollo sensed the Lord's moving in his life in specific ways and felt a calling into full time ministry. He studied at Moffat Bible College in Kenya, graduated from Ontario Bible College in 1987 (BTh), graduated from Ontario Theological Seminary in 1990 (MTS - Counselling), and studied for his M.Div. in Counselling at Tyndale University graduated May 2009. Apollo spent 8 years with World Vision Canada as a Refugee Counsellor, in Toronto, Canada and served with Partners International Canada in Kenya for 9 years where he taught at Kapsabet Bible College Kenya and Moffat Bible College, Kenya. During this time, he travelled with students around Kenya doing evangelistic ministries and seeing many of all ages come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

Along with English, Apollo also speaks Swahili, Luhya, Luo, Kisii and Kipsigis, and has studied both Vietnamese and Spanish briefly. Apollo is most interested in missionary service involving teaching, counseling and evangelism based on his qualifications and his passions. In DRC, he learned French and Lingala languages.

Lois Midigo – Bio

In contrast to Apollo, Lois was raised in a loving Christian home and remembers well the importance of a Christ-centered life. She was born in Kijabe Kenya in 1962. At the age of 16, Lois put her faith in Christ after hearing a speaker that came to her school with the message that salvation was not gained by going to church but by a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Lois’ education includes her Teacher’s Certificate (primary) from Eregi Teachers Training College in 1984 and her BA in Christian Education from Tyndale University College in 1993. She can speak Kiswahili and Kikuyu. She sees her purpose as a missionary to reach those unsaved with God’s word, and desires to teach and counsel women and young people. She states, “My call to the mission field came as a result of my parent's love and support to international students at Bible College and national missionaries serving in the mission field.

Since they could not travel outside the country, they believed God calling them to pray and support those serving God in different capacities. As I grew up and watched their love for God and God's people, it activated my desire one day to go in the mission field and make an impact in people's lives. Little did I know that God will fulfill that desire in my life by leading me to marry my husband who had the same call and vision.” Lois can speak Kikuyu, Swahili and learned French and Lingala in DRC.
