African Gospel Evangelization

Thanks for your prayers for Pastor Robert Mutambi.  The last of August 2008 Robert was our guest here in Tucson and we were able to make a short vedio of his testimony.  Click Click here here to listen to Robert's moving testimony of his relationship with Jesus - http://www.harvestmediahosting.com/testimony.html

It's been over a year now since Dinah, Robert’s wife, has passed away and he is doing very well.  Some of his pastors were not sure that he should remain a bishop now that he was single but I reminded him that the Apostle Paul had had a wife that probably left him because of his new faith so it certainly was fine for him to remain a bishop as a single man.  The others seemed OK with that.  These pastors now recognize Brother Robert as their bishop for he directly pioneered with them.  They are recognized by the Kenyan government as the African Gospel Evangelization or A.G.E. of Kenya.  Robert Mutambi is still going strong with the Churches and school for the Kenyan children in the very poor section of Nairobi.  JBMI has helped this group of Churches in Kenya since our first trip there in 1980.  The picture here is Bishop Robert Mutambi.

Much of their work is in the Mathari Valley just outside the city of Nairobi where the living conditions are terrible.  Robert was born there and has spent his live's ministry caring for them.  The new converts find new meaning in life and many time soon move out of the area because they have found new jobs and means of improving their lives through such things as his carpentry and tailoring classes.  Therefore this work continues to need support and we thank you much for this prayerful help through the years.     

A multiple use building has been built in the Mathari Valley which is used as a facility for Church meetings, school and their vocational classes.  Thanks to our support the ministry continues in helping the people of Kenya in growing in the Lord.  Just recently I received this email and picture from Robert for your information.   I quote “I hereby would like to thank those who are our prayer supporters, and I am happy to send our current Christian photo of the population of the school children which is more than we expected.   We do appreciate your continued financial support."  The children in the photo above are the ones being blessed by your gifts.  The completed school building in the slums of Nairobi is shown here to the left and below is a picture of the recently built Chruch.  The archetecture is typical of the Mathari Valley, an extremely poor area! 

Their ministry is called “African Gospel Evangelization" (A.G.E.).  There mailing address is PO Box 74685 code 00200 city square Nairobi Kenya, East Africa.   Robert's email address is rmutambi2000@yahoo.com.  As the people find new life in Christ and their standard of living improves they most often leave the poverty areas to better areas of the city. Therefore the work needs continue support.   JBMI has supported this work since 1980.   Do pray about supporting this needy work in Kenya.   God’s rich blessings be yours now and always.
