East Africa Christians Transformation Mission Fellowship

East Africa Christians Transformation Mission Fellowship, " The Fellowship" is a registered non-profit Christian Ministry organization whose main aims are to empower communities through Bible ministry. 

Part of the mission of 'The Fellowship' is to bring behavioral change through spiritual nourishment in order to counteract against poverty, livelihood insecurity and sexual misbehavior which had created a high risk environment that is fertile for HIV transmission. 

The Fellowship provides outreach in Great Toronto Area who are in need of spiritual nourishment. 

The most of the new immigrants are Christians and practice their faith on a regular basis and wants continuity of the same once they immigrate to Canada.


Rev. George Okoth Otura, President and Senior Pastor

Newcomers face many social, cultural, health and spiritual challenges when they settle in Canada. Upon initial arrival, newcomers can find a lack of the same culturally appropriate faith networks as in their home country, often leaving them isolated from familiar social settings and support. 

This is compounded by the continuing closure of churches and faith organizations in Canada. Therefore, 'The Fellowship' thinks it is important that new immigrants have access to the spiritual resources they would want to continue to rely on, going beyond faith related support to include other areas of need and address additional vulnerabilities resulting from relocation. 

In addition to primarily providing spiritual guidance, 'The Fellowship', refers individuals to other specialized support and community organizations as necessary. This could include social services, governmental programs, health agencies, and other welfare related organizations. 

'The Fellowship' does not restrict its activities to recent newcomers and will ensure that any community members with a need and desire for support will be accommodated, especially those most vulnerable such as young people, women, and the elderly."

In order to identify the beneficiaries of our work, we will link up with existing Churches community and faith organizations, identify and partner with community and ethnic group leaders, attend social and sporting groups and events of all sizes.

In addition, capitalize on word-of-mouth throughout the communities, develop relationships with other churches and engage in public outreach at apartment buildings and commercial establishments such as restaurants and cafes.
