GO Partnerships
Karogoto, Kenya
Harrison Wabiru, pastor of Antioch Baptist Church and pictured here with Mark Stuenzi, has gathered other leaders in Karogoto to chart a course for the future of this community. They have listed the greatest needs facing their community and have prioritized their next steps towards community transformation. Since the formation of our partnership with the Karogoto Council, we’ve been able to help with a community water project, shoe distribution (4,200 pairs!) and job creation for the women of the community! We’re thrilled to stand beside our brothers and sisters as they pastor their churches and lead their community towards transformation.
“Thank you very much for being so kind to us, letting us be your friends and also opening a door of love towards our community. Surely, words cannot express what this means to us as a community, not because we don’t know what it is, but words like good, nice, fabulous, etc. are all too common and fall short of expressing the actual appreciation. We thank God for you and pray that our Lord may continue to abundantly bless you all! I’m so excited about God giving us favor with the Church in Pennsylvania.” – Pastor Harry (Harrison) Wabiru
Cape Town, South Africa (Community Bible Fellowship)
Here’s a glimpse of Community Bible Fellowship, a vibrant church in South Africa:
- Men’s Ministry—Every other weekend, members from CBF host worship gatherings in Pollsmoor Maximum Security Prison. Each month they lead a Prayer Walk through the prison corridors.
- Women’s Ministry— For the past 10 years, the people of CBF have been offering hands-on, life-saving care and counseling to many of the abused women and children of Cape Town.
- Student Ministry—Many families, especially youth, in the impoverished community of Bokmakierie have been blessed by the intentional and practical help offered by Community Bible Fellowship.
The leaders and members of CBF have rearranged their lives around God’s mission. As a result, our partners are helping prisoners, abused women and hurting families find the way back to God!
“We praise God for bringing Parker Hill Community Church into our lives. You have so enriched our lives, and I’m not referring to your dollars right now (not that this is not greatly appreciated), but you have brought a dimension into our lives that has been profitable for us spiritually. It’s the most amazing sensation to be praying for folk you haven’t seen or don’t really know and to know that they are praying for you! I sometimes wish I could see what God is going to bring out of this amazing relationship HE has set up between our churches.
—Jenni Arendorf, leader at CBF
