Evangelist Emma Wamaitha Ngethe, a devoted member of the Jesus Saves International Ministry, left an indelible mark on the lives of those around her. Born to the late John Gatumwa and the late Rosemary Wambui, Emma was the loving wife of the late Paul Ngethe and the mother of five children.
Her family and friends are mourning the loss of a woman of great faith and service. Emma's children, John Gatumwa, Beatrice Njoki, Wilson Icharia, Rosemary Wambui, and Edward Kubai, will deeply miss their mother's love and guidance.
Emma's legacy extends beyond her immediate family. She was a loving grandmother to Pauline Wambui, James Maina, Gabriella Nduta, and Paul Ngethe, and her siblings, Bartholomew Kimana (late), Cecilia Gatumwa, Andrew Waweru (late), Mary Wanjiku, Kamau Gatumwa, Karanu Gatumwa, Martin Gatumwa (late), and Wainaina Gatumwa, will also miss her dearly.
Emma's faith and service were an inspiration to all who knew her. She was a faithful member of the Jesus Saves International Ministry, Peniel Church of Baltimore Maryland, and also served with a women's ministry, The Prayer Closet Missions.

As the family navigates this difficult time, they are comforted by the words of Revelation 21:4, 'And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain for the former things are passed away.'
