Revival with Edward Saffa Refreshes Nairobi
Nairobi, Kenya

- Patrick Nyamai
Greetings from Nairobi Kenya! We thank God for what He is doing here in our midst.
Last year we went through a lot of turmoil in the country because of elections, and a lot of activities in the church, including our Bible Conference were affected due to this.
However, we started this year in high gear and have been doing many different activities to recover what we lost last year and get the church back on momentum.
We have been doing crusades and are seeing lots of response in salvation and healings.
In January we had a revival with Pastor Edward Saffa from Sierra Leone and it was very timely and had a great impact in the lives of people. We then followed up with another revival with Pastor Glen Botu from Nigeria in February and again there was a powerful dimension that was added to the church.
In March we were privileged to take an impact team of 16 people to Kampala, Uganda for five days for Pastor Richard Taddwa. We would do person-to-person and door-to-door outreaches in the morning hours and then an open air outreach at lunchtime followed by a procession in the evening and then a crusade in the church.
The puppet team totally took Kampala by storm, as they had never seen anything like this before. At the end of it we saw over 200 people getting saved and 36 powerful miracles of healings.
From Pastor Taddwa’s testimony, many of the people that got saved in that impact are still coming to the church and visitors have not ceased coming to the church. At the end of the Impact Pastor Taddwa said, “The Kampala church shall never be the same again and indeed it is true as testimonies of the impact are still coming in to date.” This simply turned out to be the most powerful impact we’ve ever had.
At the end of March, we had very powerful presentations that brought a lot of fruit in the church during the 26 Easter weekend. On Good Friday we had a drama and out of that over 70 people responded for salvation. On Saturday of Easter we did an open mic concert and had over 300 visitors in church and from that, 172 people responded for salvation.
In April we were privileged to have Pastor Isaac Madzivire from Zimbabwe for revival. He brought a powerful dimension in his preaching and the attendances in the Revival were some of the best we’ve ever had in a long time. This revival has left a great impact in the lives of people in the church.
We just had our Harvesters Homecoming from 18th to 20th May and had all our baby churches coming in. What a joy to see the fruit of our investment over the years. This was a great challenge to upcoming disciples and also a great encouragement to the church as people were able to see what God can do when we simply trust him and invest in his Kingdom. It was a great time of refreshing for the couples in the harvest field, as they were able to reconnect with members of the mother church.
We are excited about what God is doing and are looking forward to all that he has for us in the future with a lot of expectation.
We would like to thank all of you who prayed for us in all the political turmoils of last year, as God was able to deliver the country. Special thanks go to Pastors Wayman Mitchell, Greg Mitchell and our own Pastor, Tom Payne. You are all a great blessing to us here in Kenya. God bless you all.
