MINISTRY REPORT: OCTOBER 2021
Family Update
We are excited that the year is coming to an end. We are taking stock of 2021 and preparing to start the new year with zest and zeal. We are also glad that the Government of Kenya has lifted the 10pm curfew. Waturi got her Moderna Covid-19 vaccine. Mine is due in December. The girls are doing well in school. Thandiwe asked a series of questions of sin, wrongdoing and eternal life. We believe this is coming from the daily Bible stories that we read to her and her sister. We answered her questions and shared the Gospel with her. She said, out of her own will, that she wanted to give her life to Christ. We were surprised! But we consented to her request and led her to Christ. We have noticed a big change in her discipline and obedience since that night.
Dagoretti Boys High School – Monday 27th September 2021
I was invited to help a young man in Dagoretti Boys High school who was struggling with a masturbation addiction. I drove to the school and met the young man over lunch hour. He was very open and he confessed everything without reservation. He was a believer. I shared the Gospel again just to clarify that he was truly regenerate. After this, I prayer with him in light of James 5:16. As we prayed, I felt a heavy cloud lift above us. This was followed by a huge yawn from the boy. I heard the Holy Spirit say that it was a demonic stronghold and that it was lifted as we prayed. The boy talked to his father and confessed. The father called me. He was grateful for my help. I have been in touch with the family. He has not slipped back into the addiction. Jesus set him free.
N’S Deliverance – Wednesday 29th September 2021
A young lady by the name N came for inner healing and restoration. She had fallen into fornication and was exposed by the man she slept with. Her pastor castigated her and offered help to the man but not to her. Her family was hard on her as well. She had a lot of pain from rejection. She forgave her offenders, confessed her sin and received healing.
Kisii University – 1st to 3rd October 2021
The Christian Union of Kisii University and the Fellowship of Christian Unions (FOCUS) invited me to minister at the campus over this weekend. I was speaking on Christian Dating and Relationships. It was a great weekend where I met new friends and explored the evergreen county that I had never been to before. I shared the Gospel with the students and its relations to Christian dating and the pursuit of marriage. It just happened that the hotel I was staying in, Kamel Park Hotel, was hosting the Deputy President, William Samoei Ruto for the weekend. In the picture on the left are the Christian Union officials that hosted me.
Premarital Class – 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th October 2021
Our premarital class has been going on very well. On two weekends I was compelled to conduct the class outside Nairobi. On 3rd October I conducted it in Kisii county where I was preaching. On 10th , I conducted it from Kisumu county where I was visiting friends of mine. The internet signals on both weekends was horrible. I intend to perhaps invest in a MiFi for my own sake.
PCEA Kitengela Township – 5th ,12th, 19th, 26th October 2021
PCEA Kitengela Township invited me to do an in-person teaching series on healthy dating that leads to marriage. The sessions have been great. I got to drive in the mess that is Mombasa Road every week and have a wonderful time of fellowship with the youth of Kitengela. I was hosted by Pastor Sam Kimui.
S’s Deliverance – Wednesday 6th October 2021
A young man by the name S came for inner healing and restoration. The man was in quite a fix. He had children out of wedlock and was struggling with the effects of some witchcraft and divination. His family had broken apart and he was desperate. The LORD broke the bondages that had held him down. S received a gift of discernment when we laid hands on him and prayed for the Holy Spirit to fill him.
Recording with David Kuria – Thursday 7th October 2021
Pastor David Kuria of 1000 Watts invited me to a discussion on the dangers of pornography and masturbation. We had a four-part recording where we talked about the effects of porn on the life on a consumer. The show targets the unchurched and the nominal Christian who has not yet made a commitment to Jesus Christ. The release will be in a few months.
Powerhouse Season 13 – 9th, 16th, 23rd October 2021
We began the 13th season of Powerhouse. We have about 50 men who have signed up. We expect that this season will equip the men to express their sexuality purely, to live their lives purposefully and to love their women passionately. We have been meeting on Saturday mornings from 6:00-8:00am.
Badili Africa – Friday 15th October 2021
Bina Maseno, the Executive Director, of Badili Africa, invited me to a panel to address sexual and gender-based violence. I was privileged to represent the voice of the church. Also on the panel were Honorable Millie Mabona (Member of Parliament of Mbita Constituency), senior magistrate Dr. Julie Oseko, Patience Nyange from the Media Council of Kenya, Blandina Bobson of Oxfam Kenya, Florence Machio of Plan Action International, Makena Njeri of BOLD network, Njeri Migwi of Sikimye and a representative from the office of the Director of Public Prosecution. The panelists were divided into two groups. I am grateful for the wisdom the LORD put in me. One lawyer, feminist and writer tweeted this after the event:
I am team side eye the church but @ewamboye spoke very well about the church’s hesitancy sometimes when addressing SGBV within their congregation coming from a place of lost moral authority…(@Iam_Wanjiru). Dated: 15th Oct 21 at 13:16 hrs Twitter for Android.
Below is a picture of the hosts and the panelists.
Mamlaka Hill Chapel Ruaka Men’s Meeting – Saturday 16th September 2021
The men’s ministry at Mamlaka Hill Chapel Ruaka, Armoured, invited me again to speak on sexual addictions. This was part two of the discussion that we started last month. Again, I was interviewed by one of the men’s leaders. This time, we share don practical steps to have the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit free us from the bondages of lust. The men signed up for an in-house training of Powerhouse, specifically for Mamlaka Hill Chapel Ruaka.
PCEA St. Andrews – Sunday 17th October 2021
Reverend Phyllis Bird of PCEA St. Andrews invited me to minister to the teenagers of the church. The topic was addictions. I shared the gospel and talked about its relation to the false high of any addiction. This was a long-awaited invite. Reverend Phyllis Byrd has been trying to get me to come to PCEA St. Andrews for quite a while now.
CITAM Valley Road Young Professionals – Sunday 17th October 2021
The Young Professionals of CITAM Valley Road invited me to speak on music and its impact on the Christina life. We did a corporate bible study from several places in scripture on what the Bible has to say on music. We examined each text in light of our sanctification as believers. It was a most refreshing bible study.
Mount Kinagop Girls Secondary School – 21st and 22nd October 2021
Principal Jane Wa Njoga of Mount Kinagop Girls Secondary School invited me to minister to students and parents on their academic week. This was also a long-awaited invite. Her original desire was to invite me for a weekend challenge. However, that failing to pass, she opted to have me speak to the form 3 and form 4 students and their parents. I ministered in the school in Njabini town for the two days. I shared the Gospel.
