The Jesus Revival Centre began in 1995 in North Kinangop, Kenya by John Kairu, his wife Esther and 10 other people. JRC began in prayer with a vision of bringing people to Christ through care and concern for the total person. God has continually added to their numbers, those who are being saved. As Of 2007, JRC has grown to a total of 1335 parishioners, attending services at the main church in North Kinangop, Engineer Town and 7 church plants in surrounding towns.
Ministry Partnership between the people of New Hope Anglican (formerly worshiping as Christ Church, Watertown) has been ongoing since 1998. In 1998, Pastor John Kairu of the Jesus Revival Centre came to the United States seeking support for his church in North Kinangop, Kenya. Pastor John met with Pastor Allyn Benedict of Christ Church Watertown. A relationship was begun between Pastor John and JRC and the people of Christ Church.
Over the years, this ministry partnership has grown. We have been fortunate to be involved in the work that God has been doing in Kenya through His people at JRC. These include:
