The mission of the Nairobi Chapel is Equipping God's People To Disciple the Nations For Christ. It is drawn from Ephesians 4:12.
Our vision is laid out in four main areas:
Global Church Planting - We are trusting God to help us plant 300 first-generation churches around the world by the year 2020.
Aggressive Evangelism - 1 million to Jesus
Personal Transformation - F.A.I.T.H.ful disciples
Continental Missions Impact - to be a missions catalyst church by offering training, and being a model
300 first generation churches planted
By 2020, we are trusting God to plant 300 first generation churches in Nairobi, Kenya, Africa, and around the world, and start a church planting movement. Our prayer is that each of these will also be vigorously planting churches so that the final outcome of 2 nd and 3 rd generation churches will be much larger than the 300 stated. The conviction behind this is that the local church is the hope of the world. The character of these churches will be . . .
Multicultural & integrated - reaching multiple ethnic or language groups
Focused in cities & towns - Paul's own strategy
Socially engaged - concerned about the poor and involved in social justice
Multiplying - passionate about evangelism
Small group based
Passion for partnership
Strategy: In order to accomplish this goal,
Church planting school(s) & research facilities.
Business enterprise institute
Trust Fund
It has been observed that some of the most successful church planting groups are not waiting to get their leaders in Bible schools and seminaries, but that their churches are headed by regular believers from their congregations: business people, doctors, teachers - believers who are going out in teams with a passion for God's kingdom and for His people. And this is our prayer... "Why not here Lord? Who are the people you are going to raise who will say 'here I am, send me, I want to be involved in starting new churches'? The harvest is plentiful, the laborers are few... Lord of the harvest, raise up an army here that will transform this city for you"
