Uhuru Pledges Sh100 Million for PCEA Hospital Project

President Kenyatta has pledged to help the Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA) complete a hospital project in Nyeri county.

Kenyatta said the government will set aside Sh100 million towards the completion of the ongoing expansion of PCEA Tumutumu Mission Hospital in the spirit of government-church partnership.

He spoke on Sunday at PCEA Tumutumu where he attended a special service to mark 100 years since the ordination of the pioneer group of 43 church elders.

Uhuru hailed PCEA for its contribution to the development of the education and healthcare sector in the country.

“It is not just the gospel which the church spreads. This church mixed the spreading of the gospel, with education and taking care of health. They treated the soul, treated the mind, and treated the body.”

“The government will continue to partner with the church in giving service to the people. You have a partner in me and a partner in my government,” Uhuru said.
