Our Leadership, Guided by Faith





Accountability In Action

Governance and Parochial Church Council

Naivasha Archdiocese Governance Framework

Our church in Naivasha is a parish within the Naivasha Archdiocese. The ministry of our parish falls under the oversight of the Archbishop of Kenya, who serves as the Diocesan Bishop of the Naivasha Archdiocese. As part of the Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK), our church operates within the diocesan hierarchy, connecting through the Deanery, Archdeaconry, and the Diocesan Synod. Additionally, our parish engages with the broader ACK community through representation in the Provincial Synod via the Diocesan Synod.

The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and are safe.
