KENYA – THE FIRST ADMA GROUP IN EAST AFRICA: THE PARISH OF NZAIKONI

Under the fatherly guidance of the first spiritual animator, Fr. Paul Luseno, the formation of the first group of 87 Aspirants began in 2016 and they made promises in 2019. To date, there are 96 Aspirants and 242 professed members of the ADMA belonging to 9 different mission stations in the parish. Their ongoing formation is proceeding steadily, supported also by the translations of the ADMA Regulations and main documents in Swahili language.

At present, the spiritual animator of the ADMA group in Nzaikoni is Fr. Peter Mugo, also Rector of the Salesian community and Parish priest, who is assisted in his mission by three other Sons of Don Bosco, all of whom are fully committed to evangelisation and Youth Ministry in the vast territory of the parish with 10,000 Catholic faithful and 24 missionary sub-stations scattered over the surrounding hills.

With this group, the ADMA has 10 groups in four countries of the East African Province (Kenya, Sudan, South Sudan and Tanzania).
