Pastor William Kumuyi, General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry (DCLM), has been invited to attend Donald Trump’s inauguration as President of the United States on January 20, 2025, in Washington, D.C. This marks Trump’s second and final term in office.
Sources reveal that Pastor Kumuyi’s visit to the U.S. extends beyond attending the inauguration ceremony. He is set to participate in pivotal discussions with American church leaders, members of Congress, and representatives from the media. These engagements aim to foster dialogue on religious freedom and Christian values globally.
Speaking on the occasion, Pastor Kumuyi lauded Trump’s contributions to promoting Christian ideals, particularly referencing Trump’s efforts during his first term. “President Trump’s stand for the gospel is not without recognition, not just by American Christians, but by Christians worldwide,” Kumuyi remarked. He praised initiatives such as hosting a groundbreaking meeting of foreign ministers focused on international religious liberty.
Pastor Kumuyi emphasized the importance of unity among believers and the global church’s role in shaping faith-driven policies. “This moment in history reminds us that faith transcends borders and unites believers worldwide. As we gather in Washington, D.C., the global church stands together in prayer and purpose,” he said.
Accompanied by his wife, Esther, Pastor Kumuyi urged Christians to adapt strategies for advancing the gospel. In a recent address to his congregation, he encouraged believers to collaborate with influential leaders to further the mission of Jesus Christ. “We cannot continue to do things in the same way and expect better results. We need to interact with gatekeepers to spread the gospel of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ,” he stated.
Pastor Kumuyi’s involvement in this event underscores the role of faith in global dialogue and the continued effort to advance Christian values in modern society.
