MANUP AFRICA

BIBLE STUDY FOR MEN

God said, “it’s not good for man to be ALONE,” so we start, lead and equip Bible study groups for men. MANUP is a place for you to be known, heard, and loved without any judgment or shame. We’re here to help you, inspire you, and encourage you along the way. 

AN ORIGINAL BIBLE STUDY SERIES

FIGHT CLUB BY MANUP

Being a man isn’t easy, but you’re not alone.  FIGHT CLUB is a 12-week series that will equip and empower you to step into the ring and fight to the bell for yourself, your family, your brothers, and your community.  Together, we’ll defeat the top 12 opponents of a man:  isolation, pride, shame, judgment, fear, anger, addiction, envy, greed, comfort, grief, and quitting.  Are you ready to win?  Let’s go!

DIRECTOR OF MANUP AFRICA

MEET BRUNO MUSUMBA

Bruno Musumba is the Senior Pastor at ICC Kiserian, based in Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, where he leads with a deep passion for missions, church planting, and men's discipleship. Married to Rev. Laura Gimayio, they are blessed with three wonderful children: Lindsay, Leroy, and Louisa.


Pastor Bruno has been instrumental in reaching out to men across Africa through MANUP, specifically the Fight Club studies, a program designed to strengthen men's faith and leadership. Driven by his passion and calling to men's ministry, he emphasizes the importance of community and connection through MANUP, fostering an environment of growth and support. 


In addition to his work with MANUP, Pastor Bruno leads various programs that help men lead themselves, their families, and their communities effectively. Under his aggressive and dedicated mentorship, over 5,000 men have been discipled so far, with another 1,000 expected to graduate in the coming months across several African countries, including Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, Malawi, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. His commitment to transforming lives and building strong, faith-based communities is unwavering, making a significant impact on the spiritual landscape of Africa.
