About Us
Msingi is a movement that was established to mobilize, inspire, equip and network Christians towards social justice and social transformation. The name Msingi, which means foundation in Swahili is derived from Psalms 89:14 that states; “Righteousness and Justice are the foundation of your throne; love and faithfulness go before you.” Core to our belief is that “Covenant members who practice justice and righteousness are to be active advocates for the vulnerable and the marginal and the people without resources and that then becomes the way to act out and exhibit one’s love of God.” – Walter Brueggemann
We long to see Kenya transformed because churches and people of faith understand their transformative role in society and have taken up the mandate to positively impact society as agents of the Kingdom of God for his Kingdom on earth. With over eight years work experience in the faith development and justice spheres in Kenya and South Africa, we have the understanding of how the two worlds intersect and how to be a witness of Godly justice to the world. We formally started full time work in August 2017 but had held various meetings at the end of 2016 and in April 2017.
