Introduction
What an amazing year we had! 2015 was a year
of quite significant achievements in the CED
department, especially as relates to our flagship
projects: The Safari and the CAMP Program. Indeed,
I can confidently say that we unblocked the ancient
wells, and we are now enjoying a fresh flow of wells
in our spiritual lives.
The Safari Finally kicked off!
When we conceived the idea of the Safari as a
pathway to growth and transformation a few years
ago, we did not anticipate how much it would take
us to birth it safely. After spending about 2 years to
develop, it was a great joy to see The Safari kick off
properly in all the assemblies in 2015. Our CITAM
mission is truly being pursued through the Safari and
other CED programs: To know God and make Him
known through evangelism and discipleship.
By God’s Grace, we were able to roll out the Enter
stage of the Safari for both adults and the older
children (10years & above). We were also able to run
the Encounter stage part 1 for adults and completed
the development of the Safari Junior materials for all
age groups. The implementation of the Safari has
inspired people’s personal daily walk with God, and
added new impetus in the life of small groups. We
have heard of very great testimonies of Salvation,
revival, healings, restoration and providence as
people dared to test God in various ways learnt in
the Safari sessions.
Beyond our circles, The Safari has been lauded as
a great discipleship initiative and was exhibited as
an example to follow in 2 International discipleship
conferences in 2015 alone: first at the Continental
discipleship conference in Addis Ababa, and then
at the IDMC conference in Singapore. In both
conferences, a slot was given in the plenary for us to
share about The Safari (Rev Robin Mulunda shared
in Addis and Rev Jacob Kimathi in Singapore).
Continental Discipleship Conference
In pursuit of partnership and networking in
discipleship, the Head of CED led a team of 100
delegates from CITAM and about 50 others
from other churches in Kenya to the Continental
Discipleship Conference held at the Africa Union
headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia between
the 26th & 28th Feb 2015. In Addis, we joined
4000 other delegates from across the world
(from 28 countries) in making various
resolutions. One of the key resolutions
and commitment was for the Church
in Africa to make discipleship the
primary core business of the
Church. Rev Robin Mulunda
