Pastor Adams Sabila is a Kingdom leader and the Co-Ordinator of King of Glory Ministries Africa, and Lead Pastor at Full Gospel Churches of Kenya-East Gate Chapel. The church started in 2009 under a temporary shelter in Sindendeet Hotel, Kitale Kenya courtesy of a Good Samaritan. It began with only five people; today the church is one of the fastest-growing churches in Kitale.
Pastor Adams Sabila was born in 1977 in the mountainous regions of Sebei tribes in Mt.Elgon ,Uganda. The Lord called Pastor Adams into the full-time ministry in 1999; although he was born again earlier he did not understand the need to fully surrender his life and plans to the Lord. He had already decided what he was going to do with his life and being a pastor was not part of his life.
During early April 23, 1999, the hand of the Lord came heavily upon his life during the planting season with oxen in his father’s farm. A lot of things began changing in his life since that time; his perspective towards the ministry changed drastically. Many events took place, which led him to pray while seeking God’s will for his life and ministry. Many days and nights he laid prostrate on the floor with tears down on his face crying to God to show him the way to for his next steps in the ministry.
It took him many months of intense prayer and fasting surrendering his life and will to do what God wanted; God wanted him to step out from what was familiar to him to trusting God to step out by faith to reach the nations for Christ. His relationship started deepening with God; He disciplined him each day through quiet times, His word, and also through the people God placed before him
Pastor Adams moved from Uganda in 2003 to Kenya where he established his ministry and met his beautiful wife Mary and married in 2005 in Kitale town. They have been blessed with two children, Judah Hopewell, and Abigail Chebet.

We have a great leadership team that is centered on getting the young Generation to have an experience with Jesus in a fun and exciting way with the messages that are relevant for the millennial. We lead the young people in their faith development, typically those already working or at the age of marriage, those in high school, in colleges and universities.

Our staffs serving the youths create a welcoming environment, providing faith directions that help our youths in becoming what God has created them to become!
Women Ministry
We believe in Equipping Women for ministry. Encouraging women of all ages to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ through learning, sharing, and serving. East Gate strongly believes in recognizing and supporting the contribution of women in the church. We believe in the value of women in all aspects of ministry as a vital part of a church that makes an impact in the community. We believe a woman can teach and lead within any ministry roles and positions as long as she demonstrates a biblical qualifying lifestyle. She must also submit herself, along with other servant-leaders; to the leadership of the church and in accordance with our constitution and statement of faith.

Training of kingdom servant leaders who will then go and multiply the straining to other leaders for the kingdom purpose and bring forth many souls to the kingdom. A rebirth of new generational leaders with the kingdom mindset and the passion of the harvest.
Market place Discipleship training
Our mission as a church is to equip the local church to lead successful in the Marketplace Ministry to influence society.
Indigenous church planting
We have the passion for the establishment of the local indigenous churches in Africa; therefore we are dedicated to the equipping of Pastors and church leaders to reach their own countrymen and women with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
