Net Ministries Trust was founded in 1980 by a group of students at the University of Nairobi’s Main Campus then as Nyanza Evangelistic Team. The ministry was born out of the need to reach out to the then Nyanza Province with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, thus the name: Nyanza Evangelistic Team (NET) Ministries. The team has since grown from a dozen committed Christians to more than 5,000 members who include members spread across the world hence the name Global.1 online resource (111 pages)eng2026 Globethics PublicationsLicensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (CC BYNC-ND 4.0).
