×Mombasa, Kenya, is a new International African Feast site for 2017 that will accommodate up to 300 attendees. About 80 African brethren will be attending this Feast site.
We welcome potential guest speakers and international transferees. Our goal is make this a wonderful Feast for everyone. Our desire is that all who attend in Mombasa will have a wonderful time of rejoicing. We’ll have many opportunities to grow in God’s ways as we seek to put Him first. We'll explore the surroundings and spending unforgettable times together.
Services will be held next door to the Southern Palms Beach Resort. There will be no evening service, but we will have two services on the first and Eighth Day. Services will start at 10 a.m. each day.
