CEIFA in East Africa
CEIFA supporting DBJ in East Africa
CEIFA ministry has been involved in laying the ground work for DBJ east Africa since 2022. Having held conferences for the youth, the movement has seen many become disciples and now disciple makers who are now actively making disciples across the region.
In Kenya, CEIFA went further and took the DBJ teaching too schools and since then the movement has been actively spreading in schools and among youth groups across the country with the disciple makers having gained training during the CEIFA DBJ conference.
In Tanzania, Fred and Josh, both Kenyan missionaries, also trained at the CEIFA DBJ conference are now serving in the region, in a village called chagana among the marginalized Taturu tribe, starting schools, planting churches, offering DBJ classes and making disciples among the Taturu youth all with the aim of spreading the love of Jesus to those that don’t know Him.
CEIFA supporting a School in East Africa
CEIFA ministry has been supporting Chagana school in Tanzania since its launch in 2023. The school offers free basic elementary education with DBJ as part of the curriculum among the needy, marginalized Taruru tribe who are mainly pastrolists in West Tanzania. Josh, a Kenyan missionary and a disciple maker, volunteered to start and teach the school and 2 years down the line, has witnessed Jesus activity at the the school, now having over 50 students. Among them are youths who he teaches how to read, write and Discipled By Jesus.
We are grateful to Jesus for seeing us through the many challenges and are believing in greater things ahead. With the school offering free education, we have several challenges especially in supporting the growing number of students, many of which come from very needy families and can’t afford the basics. Among our pressing needs are school stationery; books and writing materials.
In addition, we are believing for a feeding program (porridge for the children) to cater for them during the day, many walk from far to attend classes (a mile or 2 away) and have to spend the entire day at school hungry, they can’t concentrate. .
CEIFA supporting church planting in East Africa
CEIFA has laid some ground work in Tanzania, East Africa where after visiting Chagana village in 2022, saw the need and helped plant the first church in the region in 2023, the chagana church has grown ever since with many disciples becoming disciple makers in the village. The church is led by missionary Fred, an alumni of the first in Africa DBJ conference by CEIFA ministry in Nairobi, Kenya.
Missionary Fred has been planting many other churches in the region and has made disciples and disciple makers that are now making new disciples. We give Jesus all the glory and thanks to CEIFA for starting a fire here in Africa and supporting it.
