Welcome

Welcome to the International Migori Kenya Alliance. The IMKA was birthed during a recent meeting in Ohio where about 15 people representing different churches, ministries and countries met to discuss something we all had in common -- a burden to help Bishop John Okinda meet the spiritual and physical needs of the people in Migori, Kenya. For close to 10 years, Bishop Okinda has been sharing the vision that the Lord gave Him to plant churches, train pastors, and minister to the needs of people in his community and beyond. These needs include cleanwater, an adequate food supply, and caring for orphans who have lost their parents due in large part to the spread of AIDS. In helping John over the years, we have found ourselves as supporters sharing the same heart, but not always the same information needed to make decisions. Consequently, it has fallen on Bishop Okinda to micro-manage all the different projects and keep it all running. As we met, it became obvious that we needed to band together, share information, and unify our efforts to support Bishop Okinda's vision, putting all of our individual visions underneath his. And so, the IMKA was born.

The first thing that God allowed us to accomplish was to agree upon the "3 Phase Initiative". This plan, developed by pastor and engineer Scott Lomaster, will bring first adequate electricity (subject to the local grid), then a commercial grade water well, and finally a septic system to the entire campus in Migori. This campus includes the church, the ministry training center, the orphanage, and the canning building. Some of these are still under construction, you can find individual updates elsewhere on this site.

It is our hope that Rev. David and Elese Cosgrove from Cross Over Global Outreach (COGO) will be on the ground in Migori this coming February(2008), to oversee at least the first two stages of this plan and follow them through to completion. We have estimated the cost of the 3 Phase Initiative to be about $50,000 US dollars (a very realistic, well researched figure depending upon exchange rates). If the Lord would lead you to help underwrite this life changing project, you can send
