It is a word from Africa: Karimu
Kiswahili is the language from which the word Karimu comes. It means hospitality, generosity, generosity.
Kiswahili, also known as Swahili, is a Bantu language and is spoken in East Africa.
The Karimu International Conference Center is a place of hospitality. We believe in a God whom we experience as generous and who wants good things for our lives. The word Karimu sums this up for us and we want to pass on this hospitality and generosity to our guests.
