The exciting development of a new diocese.
Amazing church growth! - The joy - and the difficulty - is that in Kiteto a new church opens on average every fortnight and it is proving hard to train pastors to keep up with growth!
Bishop John Hayden has led and overseen the building and development of Kiteto Christian College, Cathedral and churches and schools throughout the southern region.
On 25th February 2009 The new bishop for the Diocese of Kiteto - the Revd Isaya (or Isaiah) Chambala- was elected.
The Diocese was inaugurated and Bishop Isaiah consecrated on 12th July 2009..
We were privileged to host Revd Peter Mkengi in Whitwick for 10 days during his study and exchange visit to the UK in May 2006.
Peter has coordinated the Theological Training programmes in the south since 2004.
He is currently studying for a Masters Degree in Applied Theology. He begins his final year in November 2010.
