A.C.M.I International Director, New Vice-President for I.M.A
September 2006

Bishop Henry Mulandi, African Christian Mission International (ACMI) International Director has been elected into the post of Vice President for International Missions Association (IMA).

IMA is a Christian organization that exists to encourage global missions. Today, the organization includes the President, executive board, and fourteen members. It was in the IMA meetings, and IMA organized conferences in Philippines that Bishop Mulandi was elected Vice President to support and work together with the IMA President, Richard Showalter.

The mission to Philippines, which commenced on 6th September and ended on 13th September 2006, saw Bishop Mulandi and Dr. Pastor Mbatia of Deliverance Church Thika join the rest of IMA members in the IMA conference dubbed Holy Spirit In Mission Conference, IMA meetings and visit to churches.

The purpose of the Philippines mission was to bring together the leaders of IMA and churches involved in missions’ activities, church planting, and training, with the motive of encouraging each other, and to strategize for global mission work. The Holy Spirit In Mission Conference was held to highlight things that the Holy Spirit is doing in missions, “We had a few ideas written down, but God took us beyond those ideas. He influenced us in a serious way,” Bishop reports.

One of the ideas birthed in the IMA missions was extending beyond just working as an association to collaborating together in missions’ activities. ACMI has been invited to preach in the Philippines Police Academy with over ten thousand students in sixteen constituency colleges. All those in the police force would give time to ACMI to teach and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to the students, “this is an avenue for ACMI, CCI & CCIT to collaborate together to make a mission like this happen in 2007,” Bishop believes.
