Bishop Allan Kiuna’s Family Requests Privacy as JCC Mourns Founder

The Jubilee Christian Church (JCC) leadership has released a heartfelt statement following the passing of their beloved co-founder, Bishop Allan Kiuna. They eulogized him as an extraordinary man whose profound impact touched many lives.

In their message, the church requested privacy during this challenging time and expressed gratitude for the immense support they have received from the community.

Bishop Allan Kiuna’s passing has plunged Kenyans into mourning. The renowned evangelist succumbed to a prolonged battle with myeloma cancer, passing away in a Nairobi hospital. Throughout 2023, Kiuna spent significant time in the United States undergoing treatment for his condition.

Together with his wife, Reverend Kathy Kiuna, Bishop Kiuna founded the Jubilee Christian Church, which has grown into one of Nairobi’s largest and most influential congregations. He was celebrated for his dynamic sermons and transformative leadership.

Bishop Kiuna’s Battle with Cancer

Multiple myeloma, the cancer that claimed Bishop Kiuna’s life, is caused by abnormal plasma cells accumulating in the bone marrow and forming tumors in the bones. Diagnosed in 2018, Kiuna courageously shared his journey with his followers, inspiring many with his resilience.

His passing leaves behind a heartbroken family and a congregation that will forever remember his enduring legacy of faith and inspirational teachings. Bishop Kiuna and his wife celebrated their 29th wedding anniversary in December 2023, showcasing their strong partnership in life and ministry. That same month, Kiuna celebrated his 57th birthday and his progress in the fight against cancer.

Bishop Kiuna’s Treatment Journey

During a special event in December 2023, Bishop Kiuna disclosed that he had spent KSh 460 million on his treatment, a substantial amount made possible through the generous contributions of his congregants. This support enabled him to seek advanced medical care in the United States.

The church’s statement highlighted Bishop Kiuna’s profound influence and the countless lives he touched through his ministry. His teachings, characterized by deep faith and inspiration, have left an indelible mark on many hearts.

The JCC leadership emphasized the importance of privacy for Bishop Kiuna’s family as they navigate this difficult period, while also extending their gratitude for the overwhelming support and condolences pouring in from across the nation.
