OUR VISION
Our Vision for New City Fellowship Church in Kenya:
- Sunday worship invites all people and nations to the throne of God’s grace through Jesus Christ. – (Hebrews 4:16)
Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. (Hebrews 4:16)
- God’s people are nurtured and growing in Christ-likeness. – (2 Timothy 2:2)
- God’s people, recognizing the need for one another, have a sense of belonging as they serve in the Kingdom. – (1 Corinthians 12)
- God’s people are showing love for the poor and suffering through deeds of mercy. – (Micah 6.8)
- God’s people intentionally express their love for unbelievers by sharing the Gospel in word and deed. – (Acts 1.8)
- Guests are welcomed with a grace filled atmosphere. – (2 Corinthians 2.15)
- Through God’s love and grace, Asians, Africans and other people groups amongst us are reconciled with one another. (2 Corinthians 5.18)
BRIEF FROM HISTORY
During the early 1990’s Pastor Joe and his family spent 8 years in the United States while he studied at Covenant Seminary and St. Louis University in St Louis, Missouri. While there, Pastor Joe was on the leadership team of New City Fellowship of St Louis, a new church committed to racial reconciliation between white and black Americans. Pastor Joe wondered at the time why black and white Christians couldn’t just get along. He thought it was just an American problem.
After completing his training at Covenant Seminary, Pastor Joe and his family returned to Nairobi in 1995. It was at this time that he began teaching at Daystar University in the Religious Studies Department. It didn’t take Pastor Joe long to realize all the problems between races that he saw in the United States were also present in Kenya.
OUR CORE VALUES
The central focus of our faith is the Cross of Jesus Christ and the gift of forgiveness and righteousness He freely purchased for us. The benefit of His work is the confident promise of the Holy Spirit’s anointing and power on our lives and the freedom to be in a relationship with God as our Father – all in a context of grace alone and never based on performance.
