ACK Diocese Of Kirinyaga

KAMA

Rev. Simon Bundi

Kenya Anglican Men’s Association (K.A.M.A), is a men’s fellowship in the Anglican Church of Kenya whose aim is to equip men to transform the family, church and society through the gospel of Christ. The first men’s fellowship in the Anglican Church in Kenya was commonly known as the Father’s Association in the late 1990’s. In the early 2000’s, the Province harmonized the various Diocesan Fathers’ constitutions, and established the current Kenya Anglican Men’s Association (KAMA). The committee came up the KAMA motto which is derived from Joshua 24:15b, “…as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

Kama Theme 2022

The KAMA Theme for 2022 comes from John 10:10b which says, “Wholesome life for men and their families.” Jesus was affirming that he is the true shepherd who is unlike other shepherd who had come before him. Jesus says these were hirelings and thieves. The purpose for Jesus to come is that we may have life and have it in fullness. This is contrary to the thief whose key purpose is to steal, kill, and destroy. As the KAMA mission states, “To equip Anglican men to transform the family, Church and society through the Gospel of Christ,” this year, we endeavor to help men experience fullness of life in their families, church and society.

Future plans

  1. We are in the process of soliciting funds to complete the KAMA rental flats this year
  2. KAMA Bee project to empower men financially is on high gear as we lay the foundational requirements. Some men have already started keeping bees and will soon start harvesting this year
  3. Building on point 2 above, we plan to start a diocesan honey selling outlet once the production from farmers is good
  4. Launch of the region KAMA ministry strategy coming soon. The program will run for two years after which we will do review and forge the way forward
