How it started: Salim grew up in a Muslim home and was saved at the age of sixteen. Aggrey came to Musamba and a member of his staff, Simiyu, made a habit of personally mentoring two people from each community they visited. Salim’s Mother was mentored by Simiyu through most of Salim's teenage years and it left a great sense of being called to God's purposes in Salim.
After high school Salim attended Egerton University, graduated with a higher national diploma in Project Management, Diploma in General Agriculture, Diploma in Project Cycle Management, and Diploma in Strategic Development and Planning.

Personal Passion: Salim's personal passion is affirming and equipping leaders. He loves to study the Bible and teach from a life time of marketplace ministry experiences. Salim experienced personal ministry from the time he observed his Mother's relationship with Aggrey and other mentors. Salim was greatly impacted by about 20 different men through the course of his life. He still maintains those kinds of relationships and now mentors a number of younger business leaders.

Although he loves to teach in large groups, he understands that life change occurs in groups of 5-10, 3 and 1. Salim's purpose is to leave leaders with a means of life style change in a small group of their own peers. Storms come to everyone; those that survive storms have two or three friends that throw them lifelines. Salim has captured the importance of those relationships

Personal Benefit: Most people and ministries are clueless about how life change really happens. Salim has had the privilege of seeing lives change through relationships in his business and ministry for five years. His ministry message of change through small groups is really an extension of his own family relationships. He was wise enough to make his business feel like a family.

Value to others: Salim's message changes the world one person, one company and one community at a time. He's developed a host of resources that points to peer interaction as the key to sustainable ministry. The marketplace is full of temptations for wealth, spiritual pride, and sex. Yet when businessmen put the Kingdom first, God actually meets all those needs in abundance.

When Salim has conversations he listens for four things.
#1 Kingdom - vs. the importance of just your own church or business
#2 Relationships - vs. institutions, systems, and procedures
#3 Community - vs. loners that have not experienced brokenness
#4 Transformation - vs. hiddenness (transparency among peers)

Business Potential (upside): Salim is still involved in a manufacturing business as a consultant and part owner. He helped turn around the business that was near bankruptcy to profitability over the course of several years. Businesses, by their nature, can impact thousands of lives by the people they touch; employees, customers, suppliers, etc. Businesses are intended by God to have a ministry and specific calling. Their leaders are ministers.

Complexities, failures (downside): Salim's distribution business lost 15% of its customers every year for 3 years. In 9 months God showed them how to replace the lost accounts and make the business stronger. Salim learned to trust God and prosper in the fire of the marketplace.

Vision for the Kingdom: What God is doing in Western Kenya right now is amazing. Nearly everything is happening through commerce; doors are open for marketplace ministry, but closed to traditional missionaries. The emphasis is more on the Kingdom of God and bringing Christ through the marketplace than through our traditional concept of Church.
How Can Salim Help You: Salim would love to serve you through Christ the King Community Church and African Christians Organization Network.
