Day 4 of 100 Days of Publishing in Africa: The little voices with BIG stories from our Mama Africa Book Box kids and teens authors.

Africa has always been a continent of stories.
Not written in dusty libraries or typed on glowing screens—
But whispered under moonlit skies…
Told beside smoky fires, under star-studded heavens…
Passed down from one generation to another through grannies, aunties, and village storytellers.

But what happens when the voices of our elders grow faint…
and the next generation forgets?

That’s why Mama Africa Book Box by CLC Kenya exists. To preserve, nurture, and amplify the voices of Africa’s kids and teens—so the storytelling flame is never extinguished.

This month at MABB, we reflect on self-awareness and purpose. That's the theme for the month.

And what better way to celebrate this theme than through the young authors who are not just telling stories—but shaping the future?

This Wednesday, we shine a light on four incredible young minds (all under 12!):

The Faithful Friend by Adorah Odhiambo – a story of loyalty and love, woven with lessons from Scripture. The amazing aspect about this book, is that it has an underlying message beyond the story: it's the story of Jesus as our faithful friend. How does an eight year old figure that out? Flesh and blood did mot reveal this to her. Nicholas E. Odhiambo Nyamolo Mercy W. Odhiambo

Adia’s Adventures by Audrey Spaulding – a vibrant journey packaged by a child based on her family's adventures. Audrey is a second time author at CLC Kenya. Fancy Spaulding Fancy Bwari Spaulding Jonathan Spaulding

A Shy Boy’s Big Idea by Amani Muriingi – proof that even the quietest child can spark the loudest change. This is great inspiration for Amani's generation.

Journey Through the Bible by Blessing Kemunto – a beautiful retelling of God's Word, child-to-child. B, as I call her, has 4 more volumes to go to cover the whole Bible. The devotional is a great tool to bring families together. Beatrice Saina Ongeri

These aren’t just books. They are mirrors of their young hearts—full of wonder, wisdom, and worship.

Why are we encouraging children to write in Africa, for Africa and beyond?

Because we can no longer afford to start from scratch in every generation.

For too long, Africa’s stories have been told to us—by others. But now, it’s time to equip our children to tell their own. To leave a trail of written truth that their children can read, not just remember.

At Mama Africa Book Box, writing becomes a form of discipleship. It teaches children to:

•Reflect on God’s Word

•Discover their identity in Christ

•Speak truth in love

•and pass on wisdom that outlives them.

We’re not just raising authors. We’re shepherding young hearts for God.

With over 50 children’s titles published by CLC Kenya by 2024, the bookshelf is growing—and so is the impact!

Join our reading and publishing family at www.mabb.kenyaclc.org

Help us raise a generation that reads with joy, writes with purpose, and lives with conviction.

Let’s keep the fire of storytelling burning—one page, one prayer, one young writer at a time.

𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟐 𝐨𝐟 𝟏𝟎𝟎 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚: 𝐒𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐥, 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞 - 𝐂𝐋𝐂’𝐬 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚

Did you know? Evangelicals now make up 19% of the population across Latin America—and the numbers are steadily growing. Since 1948, CLC International has been actively ministering across the region, with 36+ bookshops established in 8 countries:

🇨🇱 Chile
🇨🇴 Colombia
🇪🇨 Ecuador
🇲🇽 Mexico
🇵🇦 Panama
🇵🇪 Peru
🇺🇾 Uruguay
🇻🇪 Venezuela

From urban centres to rural communities, CLC bookshops are more than retail spaces—they are kingdom outposts, equipping individuals and Churches with Christ-centered literature to disciple nations.

Today, we focus on David Pabon, the new Regional Director for Latin America, in addition to his ongoing role as National Director for CLC Colombia. What a heart for service!

Joining the CLC ministry in 1999, David has faithfully served for over 25 years—a silver jubilee indeed, of using literature to impact lives for God. His leadership, passion, and dedication are a blessing to the Latin American region and the global CLC family.

Why is this focus on Colombia important for Africa?
CLC Colombia recently awarded a translation contract to Africa for the book Marriage, Thistles & Flowers by Barnabas Achoki and Grace A Achoki. This act of collaboration shows that their impact is not confined to Colombia—their hearts are connected with Africa, and their ministry is reaching beyond borders. All for the glory of God.

Let us continue to pray, support, and celebrate what God is doing through CLC in Latin America (and I dare say, in Africa).

Keturah Mental Health Awards Panel Discussion 2025
Theme: Fatherhood and Its Impact on Mental Health

Fatherhood is more than a role, it’s a foundation. This year, we are diving deep into the profound connection between fatherhood and mental health, the unspoken emotions, the weight of expectations, and the silent strength many fathers carry every day.

Join us for a powerful Panel Discussion where thought leaders, mental health advocates, and community champions will unpack:

• The emotional and psychological journeys of fathers

• The cultural and societal pressures shaping fatherhood

• How present, emotionally-aware fathers positively influence generations

• Why healing men means healing families and communities

• Exploring the lasting effects of engaged and absent fatherhood on children.

We’re celebrating fathers who prioritize being present over being perfect.

Meet the Panelists:
We’re bringing together a dynamic, diverse lineup of voices from across the continent who are passionate about restoring the dignity and wellness of fatherhood. Expect honest conversations, lived experiences, and actionable insights.

🌍 Represented Regions:
South Africa 🇿🇦 | Kenya 🇰🇪 | Uganda 🇺🇬 | Botswana 🇧🇼

Day 1 of 100 Days of Publishing in Africa

FEATURE: How My Daughter Abiah—Writing as Adnah McKenna—Lit the First Flame in Our Family of Authors
By Dr. Muthoni Omukhango

If you had told me in 2018 that one day our family would have nearly 100 books under our collective belt, I would’ve laughed… politely, of course. At that time, I was knee-deep in ministry work, homeschool planning, and figuring out how to boil the milk for my third baby without spilling it (again). But that year, our firstborn daughter, Abiah, who now writes under the pen name Adnah McKenna, quietly changed the course of our family history.

She was just a teenager when she came across another author, Julius Mwebia, and the opportunity to write her first manuscript.

That manuscript became Conceive Achieve for Teens: Your Roadmap to Success. It wasn’t perfect—neither was I as an editor at the time—but we knew we had to publish it. Her father, Patrick, printed it himself at CLC Kenya, where he was Head of Printing then. I edited it (with one eye on the manuscript and the other on a pot of tea threatening to boil over), and together we launched the book with trembling hearts and hopeful faith.

In 2021, we submitted the book to the inaugural African Christian Authors Book Award (ACABA). That’s when the real training began.

The judges loved the message but pointed out something we hadn’t noticed: the structure was lopsided. The first half was well-sectioned into chapters, but the second half? One long chapter that looked like it had missed its cue to divide and conquer. Tough feedback, yes—but it was the best thing that could’ve happened.

As a family (because we don’t do things solo around here), we sat down and made a plan. Over 2022 and 2023, under CLC Kenya’s guidance, we split the original book into six titles, each focused on one key area of a teen’s journey:

1. Breaking the Shell for Teens: You Are Much More
2. God-Given Gifts for Teens
3. It’s About Time for Teens
4. Accountability for Teens
5. Conceive Achieve for Teens: Your Roadmap to Success
6. From Mentee to Mentor
This wasn’t just repackaging. It was rebirthing. We watched our daughter’s voice grow clearer, stronger—wiser.

And then came the French translation in 2022, where the book won Translation of the Year. Today, teens in Francophone Africa can read "Vise bien et atteins ta cible"—a humble reminder that even a small seed, once planted right, can grow across borders. (Read the book in French at: https://www.numilog.com/1716515/vise-bien-et-atteins-ta-cible.ebook)

We’ve also had the joy of seeing her story recorded—

And I still tear up when I remember the moment in 2020 when she was awarded the Outstanding Youth Leadership Award by Josiah Kids – The School of Young Leaders in the U.S. There we were, in our modest Kenyan living room, watching our teen daughter being celebrated across the Atlantic. It didn’t matter that we didn’t fly there. God flew our message.

Since then, our family has followed in her footsteps—one after the other. Ella, our second daughter, published next-7 books. Then Ethan, our son, brought his love for cooking to life with 5 books and counting. And Patrick and I? We just keep catching up with the kids, pen in hand.

But Abiah—our Adnah McKenna—was the first to believe that God could use her voice while she was still young. She showed us that teen dreams can become Kingdom tools.

She lit the first flame.
We just passed the torch.
