This is a guest post by Susan Gitonga.
The first thing you will notice about Jaele Katia is her sense of fashion. She’s usually clad in fancy coats, printed blouses and good pair of jeans. She also has a very beautiful smile which goes without noticing. Her demeanor and radiance provides such a welcoming and loving atmosphere, the kind that makes you want to say hi. And I did.
It was cool talking to her, warmth and gleam charged my heart. Staying close to her brought the feeling of ‘This is my pack’ because of how well-dressed and neat she was. More so, I wanted my friends to see than am associated with her so as to bring the notion of ‘Show me your friends’ which would in turn clearly define who I am.
She is so friendly and warm. I remember sitting next to her last week during Kkrew Bs and she offered her seat to a first time visitor to Kkrew BS. She allowed them to to hear the gospel, the gospel which she knew, this visitor needed it more than she did. It almost sounded like the parable of the lost sheep and how the Shepherd left the 99 to go look for the one that is lost. The lost are given priority in God’s Kingdom and not the other way around. Even the story of the prodigal son is proof of the love we should have towards people who are lost.
Jaele understands all this. Her heart is kind. She loves well. She was the perfect candidate for this opportunity #MyKkrewBsStory. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Jaele Katia’s story…
******
My name is Jaele Katia, I am born again and I love Jesus. I learnt about KkrewBs last year (2015) through a friend who invited me for the service, of which I obliged and the rest as they can say is history.
Through KkrewBs, I met my destiny helper Pastor Angie Murenga who had ministered once during BS and my friend and I approached her to ask her a few life questions. The conversation opened up an opportunity where she invited us for a mentorship program which we enrolled and my purpose was revealed in this program.
I have tremendously grown as a believer as a result of attending BS. I have a Catholic upbringing and I loved God but I didn’t quite understand my purpose in Christ Jesus. Once I gave my life to Jesus wholeheartedly, He began teaching me. I learnt who I was in Him, his love, salvation and the new life as a believer. My perspective has changed ever since. I have more clarity as I grow deeper in God.
KkrewBs has been a beautiful community of lovers of God who have been instrumental in my walk with God and for that I am truly grateful!
And on a light note, I’m wired to have certain passions and interests. I thoroughly have a love for serving people, I am particularly drawn to serving Street Children and Children in homes. My heart also melts when I’m around beautiful scenery. I love travelling to breathtaking sites!
I love meeting new people, solving problems and providing solutions. Good meals are a must eat and I love my King and Father God! Thanks for stopping by to know my story, I hope it blessed you. God bless!
