Introduction
The New Covenant Assemblies of Yahweh - East African Mission is a rapidly expanding, evangelising (principally rural) mission with an average of about 200 converts being made each month, and this is increasing exponentially. Because East Africa is plagued by poverty, disease (particularly HIV and malaria), drout, and conflict (radical Islam, criminal gangs, etc.) our goal is self-sufficiency on three grounds:
- 1. Self-reliance/independence and not dependency/entitlement is a Scriptural mandate;
- 2. Support from the West is rapidly drying up with the financial recession and imminent global collapse,
- 3. Government services are either erratic, bankrupt, corrupt or non-existant.
The goal is therefore to help the members help themselves. But to do this we need initial financial backing to get important development projects underway. Most of the labour the members can perform themselves. The areas we are most concerned with are:
- 1. Aquaponics and Permaculture, which work in both rural and urban settings;
- 2. Building orphanages, schools, clincs and meeting houses;
- 3. Having transport for evangelism - everything is done on foot currently (which limits the reach of evangelism and pastoral care to new congregations) with transport being hired (at great expense) occasionally; and
- 4. Bringing Pastors to Headquarters - or sending staff from headquarters - for training.

Typical housing conditions of rural members - this is a widow and her children of a member in Tanzania who died from HIV aged 43 in 2014 the widow herself may have HIV and the children may soon be orphans
The few congregations like this one in Mancha, Kenya, who have member-made meeting houses are the lucky ones - the rest meet under temporarily mounted plastic sheets or in the open in the blistering heat or under trees in groves when it's not raining
Persecution - Pastor Agoi's wife with one of his two daughters in a local Migori hospital following emergency surgery after both were deliberately poisoned by local Christians angry at NCAY's successes
