The celebrated singer, born Donald James who has many hats including songwriter, pastor, worship leader and a producer will be accompanied by fellow artist Lenny Leblanc.
A Mombasa church, International Christian Centre wrote a letter to Don Moen on October last year inviting him to perform in Mombasa and he agreed.
Speaking to Word Is, ICC senior pastor Edward Munene confirmed that the two jetted into Mombasa yesterday.
“We are aiming to bring together churches from all denominations to worship the Lord as one family. There is already excitement from Mombasa residents and everyone is eagerly waiting for the day. We have spoken to county and national governments to provide security and all measures have been in place,” said Munene.
Advance tickets are going for Sh1000 and Sh1, 500 at the gate while VIP will part with Sh2000.
The ticket centres include, International Christian Centre Mombasa, Keswick Bookshop along Nkrumah Road, Scripture Union Bookshop and Blossom Media shop at Nyali Shopping Centre.
