On their return to Kenya, Bishop Thomas and Rebecca Imende served as Senior Pastor at the Mariakani Christian Centre in Nairobi before the Lord called them to start New Hope Outreach Ministries in 1990.
The journey of New Hope Outreach Ministries started in a very humble, yet miraculous way. When the Imendes left Mariakani Christian Centre they moved from place to place pitching tents and renting meeting rooms to share the Word of God.
All this time Bishop was trusting God to provide land so that they could build a church to cater for the growing needs of the ministry. Through Bishop Arthur Kitonga of Redeemed Gospel Church, Bishop Thomas Imende visited president Daniel Moi and presented his request to have land in Madaraka which was allocated for religious purposes.
When the President saw the name , "New Hope...", He said that is exactly what this country and city needs!" and without further discussion, the President stamped the letter, approving the request for land immediately.
NHOM started services in a small old rented tent, which the Imendes used to pitch ever Saturday evening in preparation for the Sunday service.
Since then, the ministryy has grown seeing people come in and go every Sunday being equipped with the word of God. Currently, the church has built a 1,000 seater capacityy sanctuary and ready to do a multipurpose building which will encompass children church, teen's church and other rooms for Sunday school.
