Changes and Developments at KMB
As times changed, agencies and ministries evolved such that today we have a
strong Christian Education department, Vacation Bible School, Care Groups,
Youth Ministries, and other programs.
A major change in worship style also made its
way to KMB in the formation of “Worship Teams” in place of a song leader
and pianist, which started around 1988. It introduced a new style
of contemporary praise songs. We currently have a blended mix of traditional and
contemporary songs to accommodate all tastes.
Renovations continue on
our building to meet the needs of a growing church membership and the
expansion of ministries at KMB.
