CITAM NGONG <strong>REPORT</strong><br />
33<br />
Our desire in 2016 is to increase<br />
and intensify our outreach efforts<br />
with the aim of winning our<br />
catchment area for Jesus<br />
Rev. Jesse Mwai<br />
Senior Pastor<br />
Preamble<br />
Our <strong>2015</strong> theme at CITAM Ngong was “Unblocking<br />
the Ancient wells”. It was an exciting year as we<br />
pursued this theme together as a congregation. We<br />
experienced tremendous growth in all aspects and<br />
we are grateful to God for his blessings on us.<br />
Our numerical growth in <strong>2015</strong> was unprecedented in<br />
all the years the church has been in existence. We<br />
had two membership intakes and for the first time,<br />
we had more than one hundred people coming into<br />
membership. As a result of the numerical growth,<br />
parking has become quite a challenge for us and the<br />
church facilities are greatly stretched. We cannot wait<br />
for the sanctuary to be completed.<br />
Our income also increased exponentially during the<br />
year and we saw great liberality among our members.<br />
We received into our pastoral team, Rev. Michael<br />
Wambua who joined us as the Deputy senior pastor.<br />
Our children’s pastor, Rev. Judy Anabwani went<br />
through health challenges that saw her go to India<br />
for surgery and we thank God that He has continued<br />
healing her.<br />
Our building project faced some challenges but we are<br />
still hopeful that the sanctuary will be completed soon.<br />
Our desire in 2016 is to increase and intensify<br />
our outreach efforts with the aim of winning our<br />
catchment area for Jesus.<br />
Highlights in Summary<br />
• In our records, approximately 336<br />
people visited our church for<br />
the first time in <strong>2015</strong>.<br />
