Our Journey
of Faith
The PCEA’s journey began in the late 19th century through the efforts of Scottish missionaries and has evolved through significant organizational mergers:
Foundation (1891): The mission was originally established as the East African Scottish Mission at Kibwezi by a group led by Dr. James Stewart.
Relocation to Thogoto (1898): Due to malaria at Kibwezi, missionary Thomas Watson moved the mission to Dagoretti/Thogoto (Kikuyu), where it became the Church of Scotland Mission (CSM).
Establishment of First Parishes (1920): A formal church government was inaugurated with the creation of the first three Parish Sessions:
Kikuyu
Tumutumu (founded in 1908)
St. Andrew's, Nairobi
Official Formation (1956): The PCEA as it exists today was formed through a merger between the Church of Scotland Mission and the American-rooted Gospel Missionary Society (GMS).
2026 Centenary Milestones: The church is currently marking 100 years since several 1926 landmarks, including the ordination of the first African ministers (Rev. Musa Gitau, Rev. Benjamin Githieya, and Rev. Joshua Matenjwa) and the founding of Alliance High School.

A Message from our Minister
"As we navigate 2026, our focus remains on 'Knowing Christ Better and Making Christ Known.' In a world facing rapid environmental and social changes, let us remain rooted in the word of God. We are called not just to worship within our walls, but to be a Dynamic Godly Model in our daily lives—restoring nature, supporting our neighbors, and building a community of faith that is 'Sure and Steadfast.' Let 2026 be a year of transformation and zealous service as we fulfill our mission through deed and word."
