INTO International Missions -EVERLASTING COVENANT.
And He said unto them, “Let us go INTO THE NEXT TOWNS that I may preach there also
because for this purpose I have come forth. And He was preaching in their synagogues
throughout all Galilee, and casting out demons” - Mark 1: 38, 39.
(a).History.
A Trans - denominational, non-racial, Bible faith, Christ centered outreach Missions that
is based in the Western Region of Kenya. With a commission to reach the lost, Disciple
the found and Release hurting People through the Power of the Gospel.
Our goal has been to reach the great lakes region- Africa and Asia; and is dedicated to be
a ministry that is built on God’s Word, a training ground and a ministry that reaches
around the world.
(b).Our Vision.
Going into the next towns---To seek the lost souls---Gather the fished---Feed and Disciple
the found---Send native ministers to harvest fields.
(c).Our Mission Statement.
To reach, teach and equip'. We want to reach people with the love of God, teach them
Biblical principles and finally equip them so that they can then themselves serve. It has
been our great pleasure down the few short years that we have been in existence to see
that happen on an ongoing basis. And we want to continue on that path as we look
forward to the future.
(d).Our Purpose.
To get as many people SAVED as fast as Possible because THE HARVEST IS
PERISHABLE.
(e).Our Focus.
Primarily in UN-reached, neglected Villages of Africa, Asia and later to other continents.
(f). (h).Faith Statement.
We believe:
I. That Jesus is God's Son and the only sacrifice for sin.
II. That Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit, is the Son of God born of a virgin birth,
died and rose to be at the right hand of Father God.
III. The Bible is God's Holy (infallible) Word the fully inspired supreme authority in all
matters of faith and conduct.
IV. That Jesus rose bodily from the dead.
V. That the purpose of the Church is to persuade the lost and sinful of the world to
accept Jesus Christ in their lives for a personal relationship.
VI. Whose death atonement was made for our sins.
VII. That the Church is the living spiritual body of Jesus Christ comprised of believers in
Jesus Christ, and associated for worship, work, fellowship, and ministry to one another
for others.
VIII. That God is the only one that can save people from sin and death through the
personal acceptance of His Son Jesus Christ – Regeneration.
IX. In Water Baptism by single immersion in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
X. In the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, subsequent to salvation, with the initial evidence of
speaking in tongues.
XI. In One God, distinct in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
XII. In the Apostolic regulations regarding foods and practices that injure the body and
offend the holiness of God.
XIII. In the observance of the Lord's Supper to be shared in regularly as a reminder of
our Lord's death.
XIV. In the divine healing of the sick in response to the prayer of faith.
XV. In the pre-millennial return of Jesus Christ to earth.
XVI. In the resurrection of the dead.
(g).Our Methods.
1. Mass Evangelism Crusades.
Although many African cities have Christianity in them, a high percentage of them are
(nominal) Christians that do not believe in being BORN AGAIN. According to John 3:3, if
one is not Born Again he is NOT SAVED. They MUST come to Jesus to get to heaven. In
most African cities only a small percentage of the population is saved.
We understand these people-groups and know how to move them to Christ. Whenever
we conduct a crusade, it draws a big percentage of the people in the areas where we
preach with God confirming His Word.
We are NOT ECUMENICAL. We only work with pastors who believe in being Born Again
and believe the Bible as the final authority for God's Word. They retain the harvest of souls
we reap.
2. Village Ministry
o Evangelization.
Going deep into the interior of Africa where the Gospel has never reached to tell them
about God's plan for their life through His Son Jesus Christ.
o BUILDING VILLAGE CHURCHES.
Fact:
In East and Central Africa at least 75% of the people have NO ELECTRICITY.
SATELLITE will never reach these people! We must do what Jesus said to do in Mark 16:
15-16 and GO!
Most of the INTERIOR of East and Central Africa has NEVER HAD THE GOSPEL because
of the difficulty of travel; the harsh living conditions; Conflicts/Wars, the disease; and
dangers from animals and people.
We are well equipped to go into the interior, we have the experience, the toughness, the
dedication, the willingness to live in tents and eat a bland diet; the team, and the power of
God to go after people in these villages and set them free and we understand the tribal
cultures.
We relate well to the primitive tribes, saving WHOLE VILLAGES AT one TIME and
spending much time to retain our harvest.
3. Pastoral leadership Conferences.
Most pastors in Africa have little or no Bible training. Many are confused in their doctrines.
INTO International Missions will host pastoral conferences centered around specific
topics such as; missions, church-planting, evangelism, leadership, pastoral counseling,
and financial management in the church, and many others. The goal is to equip pastors
and non-pastors with the tools necessary to fulfill their ministry objectives in a manner
that is biblical and lends itself to increased ministerial productivity resulting in a more
prepared congregation.
4. Counseling Ministry.
Due to a lot of emotional trauma, hurts and offences, which most people have in their day
to day lives, this ministry has embarked on a counseling ministry, so that our people may
be helped with stress, family problems, marital problems, depressions, frustrations,
reflections, AIDS worries, pre-marital guidance, plus many other issues.
5. Youth Development programs.
Developing and promoting youth activities are an important part of this ministry. Here we
will discuss what we are doing to assist in the growth of our youth.
Practical projects.
Although our mandate is to preach the gospel, nevertheless man is tripartite and so we
adopt very much a holistic approach to ministry. And particularly in Africa, you can't just
preach, but you have to get involved in the lives of people. This actually makes the
spiritual work easier as it adds weight to what you say and proves that you will back your
words with actions. INTO International Missions has been involved with numerous
practical projects over the last two years, and will continue to do so in the future as we
seek to touch the lives of many in every way we can.
(i). Springs of Compassion Children's Centre.
This is a non-profit program serving the Lord according to Biblical instruction to care, to
bring the Love and Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ to precious "fatherless" children.
We aim to provide food, clothing, educational materials, Bibles & Christian literature –
(Availability of books is a key factor for high achievement in reading and literacy. Illiteracy,
on the other hand, is linked to low self esteem, unemployment and crime. By making
good books part of the everyday lives of more children, we not only seeks to increase their
chances for success at school but also in life), furnishings, supplies, medical help, and
other services to help meet the physical and spiritual needs of the children.
Our first and urgent priority is to set up a children's centre. We propose to have the centre
built in Sega Town to house several needy orphans and vulnerable children whose
needs have been assessed.
We are expecting the setting up of the centre as soon as there is provision for
construction and equipment.
(a). Child Sponsorship Program.
Our holistic sponsorship program seeks to sponsor school age orphans and
disadvantaged children aged 3 to 12 years in pre-primary and primary schools, orphaned
and disadvantaged youth aged 13 to 24 years in secondary/high schools, Skills and
vocational training and in colleges/universities. In addition, we seek to house, feed,
clothe, give medical care and spiritual nourishment and send to school any orphaned
and homeless children. The minimum funding needed for sponsoring a child is US$30
per month (that is, US$ 1 per day) but you can consider giving more.
We target to care for the following categories of children – "Defend the cause of the weak
and fatherless; maintain the right of the poor and oppressed." - Psalm 82:3 ~
• Total orphan – Those both parents are dead.
• Partial orphan - One parent is dead and one parent alive.
• Abandoned / Street Children - Children from homes where both parents have
permanently left the family, forsaken the children and or damped them on the streets, in
dustbins or in the bush and are living in the open cold on the streets.
• Destitute - children from extremely poor families where either father, mother, both
parents or guardian are still living but are not able to provide basic needs of their children
due to sickness, disability, inadequate and / or no income.
• Handicapped - children with physical, mental, academic limitations or emotional
disorders.
• Educationally Deprived - Children from economically poor families who can not or will
not have the advantage of acquiring formal or informal education.
• Refugees - Children from refugee families displaced by Kenya’s recurring internal,
political violence / conflicts.
• Widows - .
(b). Vocational Training Skills.
INTO International Missions plans to start a Vocational training on technical courses like
Welding, Carpentry, Computer Skills and Tailoring and dressmaking for disadvantaged
children.
Funds are urgently needed for putting up facilities where the project will be set up in
Aboke Trading Center; and for purchasing necessary supplies.
