A Family’s Journey of Remembrance

Nearly two years after the passing of Bishop Allan Kiuna, his family continues to find ways to honor his memory at his final resting place. Lady Bishop Kathy Kiuna recently shared a video from the Jubilee Christian Church (JCC) Paradise in Thindigua, Kiambu County, where the late prelate was interred on church grounds. The footage captures a quiet family visit featuring Kathy, her daughter Stephanie, and her grandchildren, providing a glimpse into how the family is navigating their grief through the eyes of the youngest generation.

The Innocence of a Child's Love

The emotional highlight of the visit occurred when Kathy’s grandson was seen playing with stones near the grave. When questioned about his actions, the young boy explained that he was trying to light a fire. His reasoning struck a chord with both his family and online followers: he believed that if the area were warm enough, his grandfather would be able to wake up and return to them. Kathy Kiuna reflected on the moment with deep emotion, noting the profound innocence of children and expressing gratitude despite the pain of the loss.

Stephanie Kiuna’s Quest for Closure

The visit also served as a significant moment for Stephanie Kiuna, who struggled with the distance between Australia and Kenya following her father’s death in July 2024. Having missed the initial burial due to visa complications, Stephanie previously shared on her podcast that visiting the grave was a necessary step for her own closure. Since her return to Kenya in late 2025, she has made frequent visits to the site, often supported by her husband and mother as she processes the reality of her father's absence.
