Nairobi Baptist Church






With at least 3000 on site for the two 11 o’clock services (youth in the old pointed-roof church I remembered from 20 years ago, the rest in the new) there is a posse of parking attendants (guards) outside and hawkers come to sell from their barrows. The exuberant choir are still going strong after the service.

Songs are in Kiswahili and English but preaching is in English. Words and illustrations are projected onto the front wall and on TV screens around the room. After-service snacks include popcorn and samosas.
