WHO WE ARE

The National Council of Churches of Kenya (NCCK) is a family of Christian communions and organisations in fellowship and witness.

It was established in June 1913 during the United Missionary Conference held at Thogoto, near Nairobi. The delegates in the conference, representing the missionary institutions working in the country at the time, affirmed their wish to work towards a united church that would impact the lives of the people. This dream remains true and is reflected in the Vision and Mission statements of the Council, which read:
