No Harm in Accepting Donations Meant for God’s Work, Says Bishop Mechumo as He Receives Ksh 5 Million
Bishop Mechumo of ACK Malindi Diocese has sparked a lively discussion after receiving a generous donation of Ksh 5 million. Addressing the congregation during a special Sunday service, the Bishop defended the contribution, stating, “There is no harm in accepting donations meant for God’s work as long as they are used transparently and for the benefit of His people.“
The funds were reportedly given by a prominent local businessman as part of his corporate social responsibility. Bishop Mechumo explained that the money would support various church initiatives, including the construction of a new sanctuary and expanding community outreach programs.
“We are stewards of God’s resources,” the Bishop emphasized. “Every shilling donated will go into projects that uplift the community and bring glory to His name.”
The donation has elicited mixed reactions from the public. Some congregants lauded the gesture as a blessing to the church, while critics raised questions about the source of such large sums of money.
Despite the chatter, Bishop Mechumo stood firm, urging everyone to focus on the positive impact of the funds. He called for unity, saying, “Let us not lose sight of our mission. Our purpose is to serve, not to divide.”
As the church embarks on its ambitious projects, all eyes will be on how the donation is utilized. Will the funds indeed fulfill their spiritual intent? Only time will tell.
