Abstract

Many churches in cities of Kenya value a rich missionary heritage. Among them are three large and well-known churches--Nairobi Pentecostal Church, founded by Canadian missionaries; St Andrew Presbyterian Church, founded by Scottish missionaries; and All Saints Anglican Cathedral, founded by English missionaries. While elite, multiethnic Christian national members of these churches, many of whom are beneficiaries of the long missionary presence, begin to catch the missionary vision, it is necessary to explore and examine, on the basis of Christology, some of the factors that have kept them from a missionary vocation. This project establishes six such factors--professionalism, remuneration, academic preparation, interrelationships, neopaternalism, resource dependency--and evaluates them on the basis of a Christological grid.
