Projects
Here's just a small sampling of the projects our volunteers and donors have helped over the years.

Cuba
Maranatha has been working in Cuba to build and renovate Seventh-day Adventist churches since the 1990s. Political circumstances make work in Cuba complicated, and projects can take years to get off the ground and completed. But Maranatha has been successful in renovating dozens of churches in Cuba and even building an Adventist seminary.
The current project in Cuba is a new church for the Nuevitas congregation. This Seventh-day Adventist congregation has had a building that was in such bad condition that it was condemned for further use.

India
Maranatha’s first project in India was more than 25 years ago. But the big push for mission trips to India began in 1998. Since then, Maranatha has steadily worked with the Seventh-day Adventist Church in India to complete more than 1,600 churches and school classrooms in the country.
In 2012, Maranatha introduced another product to India: Elementary Education Centers. These multi-classroom buildings have been ideal for schools with large enrollments.
In recent years, Maranatha has been responding to requests for churches and schools in several states within India. In these regions a portion of the population is Christian. However, the Seventh-day Adventist faith is relatively new, and many congregations are without a place of worship. Adventist schools are also in need of construction support for their facilities, as the number of students seeking education increases.
In 2023, Maranatha will continue providing churches, schools, and water wells across the country.

Kenya
In late 1906, a missionary named Arthur Carscallen arrived in eastern Africa to share the Adventist message with the people of Kenya. During the next two decades, Carscallen established several mission stations in the country.
More than a century since Carscallen’s pioneering work, the Adventist Church in Kenya is thriving with more than 1.1 million members. Now, church leadership is requesting Maranatha’s help in providing churches, educational campuses, and water wells for this growing population.
In 2023, Maranatha hopes to build 140 churches, drill 75 water wells, complete the Kajiado campus, and build new school buildings for the Kimogoro Adventist School.
