Our Story

Mahanaïm Life Center

Mahanaïm Life Center is a project of the Community of Bethel churches in Rwanda (CEBR) aiming at offering services that reflect and uphold the values of the Kingdom of God. The word 'Mahanaim' is found in the Bible, in the book of Genesis; Chap 32: 1 - 2 It is a story of Jacob, subsequently called Israel during his journey, from the house of his uncle Laban, back to his homeland in Canaan.
Jacob was deeply concerned about meeting his elder brother Esau, whom he believed was having a resentment and might be wanting to kill him, because Jacob had taken the birthright of Esau, which had prompted Jacob to flee in the first place.
Along that journey, God showed Jacob also called Israel a vision of angels meeting him, which comforted and brought joy to Jacob and he named that particular place “Mahanaïm” which means 'the Camp of God”; ‘an area where the presence of God was manifested’. Thus, the initiative was named “Mahanaim Life Center”, embodying the idea that it will be a place where the presence of God and the values of His Kingdom would be manifested through the services available to our clients.

Although Mahanaim Life Center offers services similar to those available elsewhere, the underlying values and principles are different. Whereas some places they solely aim at generating profit, at Mahanaim Life Center beyond that the core guiding values and goal is not only offering affordable services but also creating jobs primarily to members of Bethel church as well as any other person regardless their religious affiliation, as long as they align with the Kingdom of God principles outlined in the epistle of Paul to Galatians 5: 22 - 23.
MLC therefore looks forward to being a venue where peace, tranquility, joy and patience will evidently reside and all our services will be provided with gentleness, forbearance and humility. Furthermore, the fruits of the Holy Spirit will be a defining feature of all those providing our services, along with multiple other values intrinsic to the Kingdom of God.
As such, Mahanaim Life Center is designed to be like a small village where every good thing needed can be found. This project was dedicated with prayers that God would reveal Himself to all who visit, so that they may not only be assisted but also to encounter the salvation of our God. We therefore extend our cordial invitation to all who seek our services to visit Mahanaim Life Center, where they will have the opportunity to experience the unique and exceptional Kingdom-driven services.
Thank you, and may The Lord Jesus bless you.
