The ACK Diocese of Malindi warmly welcomes the month of September with hearts full of gratitude to God for His unfailing love, grace and faithfulness.

As we begin this new month, we pray that God will renew our strength, deepen our faith and guide us in every step we take. May September bring new hope, new opportunities, answered prayers and countless reasons to give thanks.

May God's grace go before us, His goodness follow us, and His peace remain with us in our homes, families, workplaces and communities. Whatever challenges we may face, may we continue to trust in God's promises and walk confidently in His purpose.

“This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” — Psalm 118:24

🙏🏽 Happy New Month of September from ACK Diocese of Malindi!

May this month be a beautiful reminder that God is with us, God is for us, and His faithfulness never fails. ❤️

It was a joyful and spiritually enriching day at ACK St. Philip’s Shomela as the faithful gathered for a Holy Communion Service, presided over by the Rt. Rev. Dr. Reuben S. Katite, Bishop of ACK Diocese of Malindi. 🙏🏽✝️

The service brought together the congregation in worship, prayer, thanksgiving and fellowship as we celebrated the grace of God and the gift of Holy Communion.

During the service, the Bishop shared the Word of God from Mark 10:46–52, the powerful story of Bartimaeus, a blind man who persistently called upon Jesus despite the attempts of others to silence him. His faith and determination eventually led him to encounter Jesus and receive his sight.

The message reminded the congregation of the importance of faith, persistence and courage in seeking God. Like Bartimaeus, we are encouraged not to allow our circumstances, challenges or the voices around us to prevent us from calling upon the Lord. When we approach Christ with genuine faith, He hears our cry and responds according to His will. 🙏🏽

The celebration of Holy Communion further provided an opportunity for the faithful to renew their relationship with God, strengthen their faith and recommit themselves to living out the Gospel in their daily lives.

We thank God for the wonderful fellowship and for the continued growth of the church at ACK St. Philip’s Shomela. May the Lord strengthen the congregation, bless their ministry and continue to guide them in their journey of faith and service.

“Go, your faith has healed you.” — Mark 10:52 ✝️❤️
