From a Dreaded Female Circumciser to a Follower of Christ!

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.
The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”
—2 Corinthians 5:17

Before Robi Wekenge received Christ, the mere mention of her name, the dreaded and menacing female circumciser, would send chills down the spines of her would be victims. The fear must have been occasioned by her ruthlessness. Just like all the female circumcisers, she was definitely heartless, unperturbed by the screams of the innocent children crying for mercy. Overtime, her heart transformed into some kind of a stone. This cold-heartedness was displayed during the many mutilation processes she had carried out in the course of her infamous and criminal career.

However, all these changed one day when Rebecca Mbusiro, a CMA trainee ventured out to engage her with the life changing gospel of Jesus Christ. That day, everything changed. Robi accepted Jesus Christ. Today, Robi Wekenge is a new creation! All the old gruesome things she did have passed!


Robi is now looking forward to a new adventure in her new found life in Jesus Christ! Maybe, one day, she will join the next CMA leadership training seminars to be equipped for Christian Ministry and be Christ’s ambassador among her former colleagues! Who knows? What a testimony that would be! This is one of the heart-warming stories of what God is doing through the CMA’s leadership training seminars.

Glory be to God!

SMART GIRL & BOY INITIATIVE

Many Kenyan school going girls cannot afford sanitary items, and as a result, miss class every year due to their menstrual cycles. School absence lowers girls’ academic performance and self-esteem and widens gender disparities. Through Christian Mission Aid’s Smart Girl program, adolescent girls are provided with educational lectures, counselling and sanitary kits, giving them a better understanding and confidence of who they are and allowing them to stay in school. Young adolescent boys are also provided with lectures and education on pear pressure, drugs, character building, health, sexual matters and proper behavior in relationships. All education and counselling on based on Christian principles.
