Bishop Obonyo returns to New England By our writter Updated version. Sunday January 24
LOWELL, Mass., JANUARY 23_ BISHOP Jonah Obonyo, the widely traveled multi-lingual preacher from Kenya will be coming back to the Bay area for a series of revival meetings at the Christ is the answer Church in North Chelmsford, Massachusetts.
Bp. Obonyo, who leads the Cathedral of Praise Ministries church in Nairobi, will arrived in Lowell this week and is scheduled to start his spiritual teachings mission on Wednesday, Sunday January 27 when he attends a an evening crudate at the CITAC church starting 6pm.
The cleric was scheduled to start his sermons this Sunday, but a last minute travel hitch forced a reshuffle of the program.
During his recent trips to Boston that were widely reported by AjabuAfrica.com, the Bishop surprised many by his ability to speak fluent Kikuyu to hundreds of Kikuyu who frequent many of the churches in Massachusetts.
His masterful skill in switching between his own Luo to English to Kikuyu among many other languages, and feeling completely at home with it, has impressed many, often attracting many non- church goers to church, at least in part to meet the renowned man of God.
Bishop Obonyo has also played a significant role significant in bridging the tribal gap between the Kikuyu and Luo communities in Massachusetts when he led an inter-tribal praise and worship service at the Rapture Harvest Mission International church in Wakefield last year in preparation for the Luo day celebrations.

“Everyone is welcome to hear Bishop Obonyo. There will be a chance for people with different schedules who wish to come and be blessed by Bishop Obonyo’s wise words to attend as the program spans many days and at varying times,” said Steve Kinuthia, a youthful member if the CITAC church who is playing a central role in organizing for the crusades.
