Dialogue for a Better Kenya – National Council of Churches of Kenya
Introduction
The 63rd General Assembly of the National Council of Churches of Kenya has been held here at Jumuia Conference and Beach Resort, Kanamai, Kilifi County, from 28th – 30th August 2018. The General Assembly was guided by the theme “That We May Be One (Jeremiah 32: 38 – 39)”, which reads:
And they shall be my people, and I will be their God. And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them.
The Assembly recognized that there is need to build oneness of mind and identity that all Kenyans can embrace, which is premised on our submission to God as is stated in the Preamble to the Constitution of Kenya 2010 –
“We the people of Kenya – Acknowledging the supremacy of Almighty God of all creation”
This General Assembly recognized that when the people of Kenya adopt a common identity and purpose by defining what it means to be Kenyan, then the social political evils that have afflicted us for many decades will be resolved.
