The main
ministry of the Department of Christian Communication is the creation
and distribution of
Matunda (Fruit), a conference newsletter
that is published every three months. Started in 1970, is it now
written by Pastor Kitenge, who uses his own money to keep the small
publication afloat. Pastor Kitenge also serves as the conference’s
historian, creating pamphlets documenting major events, sermons, and
the history of this region. Due to funding restraints, only a few
copies of these documents exist.
Dream of the Department:
The department dreams of having the budget to access modern
communication technologies such as a computer, a spot on the radio,
local television, and the internet. Pastor Kitenge, as head of the
department, would like to have training in all of these areas.
