Governor Jeremiah Lomorukai today hosted a delegation from the Reformed Church of East Africa (RCEA) missionaries, under the US-based non-profit organization Hands on Mission.
The delegation, led by Hands on Mission Executive Director Reverend Stephen Hogge, announced plans to implement water, health, and education initiatives in Kalapata Ward. Reverend Hogge explained that during the visit, the team will engage with RCEA Church leaders and the local community before rolling out programmes. "We intend to partner with the County Government to develop water projects, conduct medical camps, and explore support for secondary education in Kalapata," said Reverend Hogge.
He emphasized the organization's commitment to transparency and accountability, stating, "It is our biblical responsibility to work under your God-given authority.
We see this as a partnership, both in development and in faith." Governor Lomorukai welcomed the collaboration, acknowledging the critical need for such interventions with the county's arid and semi-arid situation. "Turkana faces significant challenges as an ASAL county, and we appreciate the support from RCEA missionaries, which will directly benefit Kalapata residents," he said.
