Our History
Parklands Baptist Church began in 1967 around the Globe Cinema with 45 members. Some of the missionaries who had started the work in the country in 1956 had wanted to reach out among the asian community in the Parklands area of the city of Nairobi. The initial efforts were not very promising and so it was decided to start an English speaking congregation among the residents of Parklands.
In 1968, PBC moved to its first location on the junction of Ojijo Road and Chiromo Lane near the Parklands Sports Club. It was situated on a small acreage and did well for more than 20 years. God blessed and grew His church each and every week from 45, to 150, to more than 800 members and exponentially to a level where extensions to accommodate more people could no longer be made. For the first ten years it was pastored mostly by missionaries but after that, nationals were engaged into leadership.
Molding believers, influencing the world
The General purpose and mandate of Parklands Baptist Church is to continue the ministry that Christ Jesus began on earth of preaching the gospel, teaching and healing. We are committed to fulfilling the Great Commission through evangelism, discipleship and missions. We are a joyful community of believers that loves God and desires to make Him known to everyone we encounter.
