The Kick Off Lights camera action! That is what went down on
10th July as we kicked off the KCC 40 days of commu-
nity. It was a real kick off with congregants heeding the
call to come having worn their sporty wear! Members
were clad in their favorite sports regalia and of course
their favorite teams especially teams from the English
Premier League were the most featured! T-shirts of Man
U, Arsenal and Chelsea donned both the church and the
field. Not being left behind were also T shirts from one
of the local popular clubs– Gor Mahia.
Sporty wear aside, there were also a number of
activities. First there was a hot steamy sermons off the
press delivered in all three services challenging congregants to
take this time of 40 days of community to make a difference in
both KCC as a church and its community around. In both fam-
ily service and ground zero the members were urged to pluginto a small group and those who are in one should strengthen
their group by reaching out to their neighbours to join them.
This challenge was witnessed with members registering to join
or host a small group at our community center tent.
From the activities in the services, we moved to the field
where the real action went down with two soccer matches and
a tug of war. The matches were officially opened by Philemon
Kimutai (Chair, Elders Court) kicking off the ball and, after
three tries to put the ball in the net the games begun. The first
match was from the children tabernacle were the little ones
showed that indeed talents start early!! After that fun filled
match we got to the main match of the day between the KCC
soccer team aka ‘The Kranji’ and Sparks FC from Bul bul area
which is in the KCC neighbourhood. The match was action
packed with both sides showing their prowess in the game of soccer and by half time neitheir team had scored! It was that
half time that we were treated to a time of tug of war between
the ‘old school’ (Family Service) and ‘the young
bloods’ (Ground Zero) and after two tries it was a draw on both
sides. Back to the soccer match and after 60 minutes of play
the score was a draw: 2-2. but there will be a re-march in Au-
gust to decide the winner! We will keep you posted!!
On Sunday 17th July KCC was splashed in red not that itwas valentine day (in July??) no, but it was time to spread the
love and members were clad in red to symbolize that we at
KCC are ready to spread the love of Christ not only among
ourselves but also those around our community. To drive the
point home there was even a mock wedding ceremony during
the Family service sermon to show the whole concept of love is
sacrificial, the same was emphasized in Ground Zero with chal-
lenge from Mark 12:30-31 where the youth were urged to love
their neighbours the way they love God and themselves. The
Children tabernacle were not left behind by showing their love
with nice love boxes they have made for the children down in
Aweer, Lamu. All in all love was and is in the air and for sure
this 40 days of community will be a charged up event!!
