Amidst great challenges, uncertainties such as the global economic crisis, the drought, recent trail of fires and unresolved political wrangles, the new frontiers movement of churches in Kenya is currently riding on a prophetic wave of a new season. the book of Isaiah 43: 18-19 sums up the biblical backing for this new wave. "And God says… Behold I am doing a new thing, and it shall surely come forth! Can you not see it? Can you not perceive it? Do not DWELL in the former things".

The NS-SACCO aims to empower all joining members economically by nurturing a savings culture among the members. Under the mandate of the Cooperative Societies Act and NS-SACCO By-Laws, this basic principle has laid systems, structures and procedures in place to encourage economic expansion for members. One of the aims of this New Season is to champion Christian Development that is empowering in a holistic manner – tangible and intangible. The Cooperative Societies Act, under Kenyan Law, provides for different groups to start and sustain savings and credit facilities in a very competitive business environment.
