Wings of Life Gospel Church International

Archbishop Gerishon K. Njoroge was born and brought up in a strict Presbyterian Church family. Attending PCEA Mirithiru primary school for his primary education meant that they had to attend Sunday school every Sunday and the teachers had to be present to make a roll call every Sunday. Woe unto you if you did not attend, for hell will break lose in school on Monday as teachers would feast on you and you could not report the beating back home.

This did not drive Archbishop Gerishon away from the Christian faith, rather Christianity and the church become interesting to him and he become a good Presbyterian, a Sunday school teacher and a faithful youth member in PCEA Mirithu Church in Ndeiya, As a Presbyterian youth member, he was able to go to missionary trips in Naibarijijik and Kirarabuni in Narok County and many other parts of Kwenya, trips which made him a darling of missionary work to this day.

In June 12^th, 1971 he had unforgettable encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ when he was 14 years old, that which changed his life and led him to confess and repent all his sins, and accept the Lord Jesus as his personal Savior under the ministry of the University of Nairobi students Christian Union .From this day  he begun to experience his personal relationship with God, and having a deeper fellowship with the  One who created him and loves him no matter who he is or what he have done. He started to experience the profound depth of God’s care and love. By God’s grace he was saved, sanctified and baptized with the Holy Ghost. There and then he started craving for God and His power – that he  might be used of God.

The East Africa revival fellowship (Tukutendereza brethren) played a pivotal role in strengthening his new found faith, despite the fact that he was very young and many of them were very elderly. It is worth mentioning, that it was during this period of early 70s that Pentecostal revival broke out in Kenya, and like a mighty whirlwind carried with it many youths who were seeking a deeper and a close relationship with God. He thank God he was among the youths who accepted God to take them to a higher level of faith as they surrendered to the divine will of God. A memorable event which left a mark in his life, is an over night prayer meeting that took place one Saturday in 1974, in a mud walled, grass thatched house. At 3 am prayer time, an old woman who was over 90yrs of age who had never ever gone to school all her life, got hold of him and put her had around his waist and started prophesying unto him in pure King James version English.

She spoke of many things which have come to be fulfilled in Archbishop Gerishon’s life to the letter, one being that he will hold a high office in church and he will take the gospel to the nations. To date he has ministered in many Nations of the World, a confirmation to that prophesy. Archbishop Gerishon K. Njoroge was called by God to be a minister back in 1976 when he was very young. After preaching in many parts of the country, in crusades schools and colleges and in prison ministry, by God’s divine order, he eventually answered the call into the ministry and was ordained as a pastor in 1978. After working with the Government of Kenya for 19 years, Bishop Gerishon resigned from his job with the government  in 1997 to enter into full time Church ministry.

He ministered in different churches like Household of Faith Church and later with the Ambassadors for Christ Fellowship, until 1999 when God put in his heart the Vision to launch a new ministry. In obedience to the voice of God, he founded Wings of Life Gospel Church International with its Headquarters in Nairobi.  Archbishop Gerishon K. Njoroge was consecrated as a Bishop by the late Bishop James Tyson of Christ Church Apostolic, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA in the year 2000, and later consecrated as an Archbishop in 2010
