What We Do

CFE ministry has two components: Church life & Church and Society as follows
  • A discipleship and leadership development model within local context: CFE’s discipleship and leadership development model was born in a harsh economic environment and in a state of political uncertainty. In this environment the visioners found resourcefulness to build a church movement that is still growing
  • Mobilising the resources of faith: Mission initiatives in CFE have been born out of processes of prayer, reflection, study of scriptures while at the same time engaging with the realities outside the church walls. This is a collective process at the various levels of the structures: the senior leadership levels, regional, zonal and congregation levels.

. . . I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. John 10:10

  • Building missional centres and local action: The centre has been a team of people with clarity of vision on what is to be done in relation to the mission of CFE. It is a point of prayer, studying the word, teaching, conversations. It is based on the understanding of resourcefulness placed by the Holy Spirit in the lives of people and mostly common people to fulfil the mission of God in society
  • Wholistic Mission: CFE has grown a model for doing development that was born out of a pastoral concern for the communities where CFE Centres are serving. The prevalence of hunger, poverty, HIV and AIDS and the need to respond to these issues became a major part of CFE’s reflection processes on the state of the communities where the centres are. The interpretation of scriptures, prayer-individual and collective- has led to constructive action

For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.

  • An intergenerational ministry: the mission of CFE has been majorly owned and implemented by the young generation with the support of the older generation. The fact that CFE was started at the time the founder was in his 30s easily attracted the young generation. Being an elder didn’t mean old age. It meant fulfilling the criteria set for such an office in the church
