Kisii county project 2024-2025

At the invitation of the Kisii County Pastors and Clergy Forum (KCPCF), Global Pastor Training will begin the first of 22 Pastor Training Workshops in Kisii County, Kenya in November 2024. The shared goal of the partnering organizations is to train all willing pastors in Kisii County’s 11 sub-counties in the next 12 months, with standardized pastoral training for the county’s more than 1,000 serving church pastors.

GPT’s founder, John Crimmins, will travel to Kisii County in November for the initial workshops, which will launch the year-long project. The project begins with a prayer meeting at Rehoboth Christ Mission Centre Church on Sunday, November 10, 2024, 3pm to 5pm. The first Pastor Training Workshop will be held November 11-15, 2024 Kisii South Subcounty at New Beginning Church. The second pastor Training workshop will be held November 12-15, 2024 In Kenyenya subcounty at Reformed Church Mission.

KCPCF expects more than 90 pastors will attend the workshop in Kisii South, and more than 150 pastors will attend in Kenyenya.

KISII COUNTY PASTORS AND CLERGY FORUM (kcpcf)

Kisii County Pastors and Clergy Forum (KCPCF) is a growing community of pastors and clergy mobilizing all pastors and clergy in Kisii County to build the unity of the body of Christ. The KCPCF Vision: We are an Ever-Growing Community of Love and Acceptance where Pastors and Clergy’s lives are transformed. Their mission is “To mobilize all pastors and clergy in kisii and beyond to attain the unity of the body of Christ.” Their core values include “Transparency, Accountability, Honesty, Efficiency, Teamwork.”

GPT’s Goal

We believe that, as the Lord is pleased to bless and use it, this project has the potential to bring biblical renewal (Rom. 12:1, 2) to the pastors of Kisii County, and through them to the believing families of Kisii County. We believe, further, that this renewal will in turn impact the surrounding area and peoples positively for the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. To God be the glory!

 

God Provides the Invitation

Kingdom Objectives for the Kisii County Project 2024

  • Pray that God will God will use GPT’s Tier 1 and 2 Workshops to revive and renew His pastor-leaders in Kisii County as they receive further instruction in His Word at the Workshops. (Ephesians 1:17, 18)

  • Pray that God will “fan into flame” (II Timothy 1:6) the spiritual gifts within each of the pastors, that they may in turn “stir up their people” (II Peter 1:13) as they preach and teach to all what they have heard in the Workshops.

  • Pray that God Almighty would be pleased to bring “times of refreshing” (Acts 3:19) to Kisii County as believers and the general population respond to the biblical message.

  • Pray that as renewed pastors preach God’s Word and instruct their people in God’s ways, that this will bring revival and renewed spiritual strength to the Church of Jesus Christ in Kisii County. And as that happens,

  • Pray that God would spread that renewal throughout Kenya to all of East Africa and beyond.

GPT Targets toward the Fulfillment of Kisii County Project 2024

  • Start-up. GPT is set to hold the first two of 22 Workshops in Kisii County during the week of Nov. 10-16. Pray for our Regional Teachers as they prepare for these two initial Tier 1 Workshops.

  • Funding. This is a big undertaking for GPT. We are starting the project with 50% of our project budget in hand. Pray that the Lord will continue to provide all that will be needed to see the project through to completion. 

  • Continuity. GPT plans to conduct two Tier 1 or Tier 2 Workshops in 11 different sub-districts of Kisii County over the next 10-12 months. Pray for the ongoing planning and coordination that will be required to systematically move through all 11 sub-districts of the county. Ask the Lord to maintain the joy and the focus of our Regional Teachers, that each Workshop in each sub-district will be as fresh, as joyful and as refreshing as the first.

  • John and the Team. “Finally, pray for us, that the Word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you, and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men, for not all have faith.” (II Thessalonians 3:1,2)

  • Pray for the rest of GPT’s ongoing work throughout 2024/2025. We are set to continue our full schedule of Workshops in India, Pakistan, the Carribean and the rest of Africa while Kisii County Project 2024 moves ahead. Pray for us, “because a great door for effective work has opened to us…” (I Corinthians 16:9)
