On September 30, 2019, Pastor James Maina Ng'ang'a made headlines with a shocking announcement: single mothers would no longer be welcome at his church.
According to Ng'ang'a, the decision was made to address the challenges single mothers pose to church members. He claimed that many single mothers come to church with the intention of finding husbands or boyfriends, which he deemed to be in contravention of the church manual.
Ng'ang'a also expressed his gratitude for the well-wishes he received during his previous illness, stating that his church is committed to serving the Lord and transforming lives.
However, his stance on single mothers has been met with criticism, with some accusing him of being harsh and unforgiving. In response, Ng'ang'a defiantly stated, 'Those who cannot follow my commands are free to go and serve another god elsewhere.'
It remains to be seen how this decision will affect the church and its members, but one thing is clear: Pastor Ng'ang'a is standing firm in his convictions.
