CITAM ELDORET REPORT
WM Conference in November. Men’s Ministry
met on a bimonthly basis and started a project to
construct a baptismal pool for the assembly. The
Young Professionals Fellowship met on a monthly
basis, organized a dinner and we witnessed six of
them getting married through beautiful weddings.
The Married Couples Care Groups (MCCG’s) were
launched and by the end of the year ten have been
active. During every 5th Sunday, the Couples and
Mature Singles had their fellowships which were well
attended.
during their National Missions Convention held at
Kapsabet Girls. They hosted 50 students and their
teachers as hey reached out to the neighbourhood.
In July the Assembly was actively involved in the Great
Eldoret Outreach, stratified evangelism collaboration
between the Eldoret Gospel Ministers Fellowship
and the African Evangelistic Enterprise. We hosted
all the 35 international missioners in the congregants’
homes, mobilized 50 members for the outreach
and made financial contribution. The entire mission
brought 2000 new believers to the faith in the city.
Christian Education and
Discipleship
CITAM Eldoret was privileged to run the Safari Enter
stage as had been envisaged through 10 Cohorts
of which 243 graduated thanks to the manageable
numbers and availability of space. We run two other
seasons of the Safari Enter stage with 30 and 15
attendants respectively. The Safari Encounter stage
1 was run during the Sunday services. An evaluation
after the two Safari stages has shown significant
growth in terms of involvement in the Safari groups,
participation in ministries, care for one another and
increase in financial giving.
Evangelism and Missions
The Mission and Outreach team engaged in reaching
out to the schools, colleges and universities through
Sunday Services, Midweek Fellowships, Rallies and
Weekend challenges. In April 2015, the team worked
with the KSCF (Kenya Students Christian Fellowship)
Governance and Social Action
Through the guidance of the Governance and Social
Action team we sought to be the light and salt in the
community through: an organized trade fair, a special
prayer Sunday for the County leadership, a special
Mashujaa day award to retired General Lazarus
Sumbeiyo for exemplary Christian leadership in the
market place and the construction of chain-link fence
and an ablution facility for the Kipkaren Administration
Police camp near the assembly.
Challenges & Way Forward
To facilitate growth and transformation of the
assembly in 2016, there is need to complete the
ablution block, provide facilities and resources for
youth ministry, and also for consideration to put at
least a hall to carry out the assembly’s services as
we await the construction of a permanent sanctuary
in the future.
