John Wilson

John Wilson will update us on Hope Kenya Global ministry.
I’ve been on a lifelong journey for knowledge—one that began in Kenya and brought me to the U.S. in the ’80s. Along the way, I’ve met incredible people (and a few characters too), but through it all, God’s grace has been constant.

Whether as a family man in Olathe, a professor at Park University, a board member for several nonprofits,  a technology executive, VP of Finance at PMI Midwest, or leading Hope Kenya, I’ve seen the hand of God at work. Wisdom has always been my aspiration, and I hold on to James 1:5 and Matthew 6:33 as reminders to seek Him first—because everything else flows from there.

We launched Hope Kenya in 2008, a Kansas City-based nonprofit partnering with faith communities to serve underserved areas through education, health, and service—always with the hope that people would see Christ through our love and actions.

Intentional planning and strategic projects have helped us witness God move powerfully through His people. Every initiative we take on is treated like a project—with a sponsor, a clear start and end, and a defined goal. And in each one, we’ve seen God’s hand—mkono wa Bwana in Kiswahili.

Now, we’re building on that experience with Foundations of Hope, a new Kansas City-based nonprofit. Our mission is to empower other organizations to build strong foundations for spreading the Gospel. We aim to be a catalyst—helping others fulfill their calling and advance God’s Kingdom.

James 1:5 – If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, that giveth all men liberally and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him!

Lee Jost

Lee Jost will update us on NCircle ministry.
Lee Jost was born and raised in Kansas City.  He has been married for over 36 years and is a father and grandfather.  Lee started his career as a minister and continues to pastor a small church in Olathe.  In 2011 Lee and a group of concerned church members saw a gap in services for justice involved families.  They began running a family program designed to help justice involved families grow stronger and more stable.   Many of the people in the program were under employed so in 2012 they began a job training program.  In 2016 Lee launched NCircle, an independent education based 501c3.  Today they partner with Johnson County Corrections, Johnson County Community College, Goodwill of Western Missouri and Eastern Kansas, the Johnson County Library and local employers to provide justice involved individuals a pathway to training and good jobs.  NCircle, has served hundreds of families who are impacted by incarceration.  Today the programs provide training for men and women entering the workforce post incarceration through their College of Trades.  Teens under the care of corrections find purpose and direction through Discovery; a workforce discovery program helping teens understand the skilled trades.  In 2022 NCircle launched a pilot partnership with Zephyr Products of Lansing Kansas and Brothers in Blue.  Working with Private Industry and trusted nonprofits, NCircle is providing soft skills training on the job for work release employees and in partnership with Brothers in Blue hosting a job club that prepares men for employment upon release from prison.  In 2025 NCircle launched StepNext, a youth mentoring program designed to connect stable adults to justice involved youth in Kansas. Lee currently serves as Executive Director of NCircle and is active in the community and on multiple community boards including the Criminal Justice Advisory Council and the Johnson County Housing and Community Development Advisory Council.
