Event Leadership Team

On this day we were a bit challenged by the weather, but there were 90 ministry leaders in attendance that brought together many in this community.

Great Commandment Workshop Attendees

Things went well despite the harsh Kenyan, cold morning winter. We had 90 registered attendees and 50 GCW commitments at the conclusion of the event.

The energy and the Spirit anointing pervaded the room. Eastlands is a low-income area of the city of Nairobi, but the people showed commitment and engagement in discussions. We look forward to fruitfulness and growth from this workshop

We are confident that based on the enthusiasm and willingness of this group, God is going to do mighty things in their community for the betterment of orphan children.

All for the Glory of God in obedience and adherence to (James 1:27).

We have held ten Great Commandment Workshop events since our launch in February 2022:
