Our Story · Our Mission

More than a church.
A family.

Rooted in Quaker tradition, growing in Christ's love — serving Nairobi and beyond since our founding.

Who We Are

Built on faith,
powered by love

Friends Church Donholm is a vibrant, Christ-centred community rooted in the Quaker tradition of honest worship, plain speaking, and active service. We believe faith must be lived — not just professed.

From Sunday services to school programmes, from community outreach to youth development — everything we do flows from a simple conviction: love God, love people, serve the world.

Our Mission

To preach and teach the Gospel of God's love and salvation through Jesus Christ to all mankind.

Our Vision

A well-resourced, Gospel-preaching and Christ-Centred church that transforms communities.

Our Motto

"Achieving Success Together"

Faith doesn't wait for mountains to move — it moves them.

In our journey of faith, we often face challenges that seem insurmountable. But remember, God doesn't always remove obstacles; sometimes He gives us the strength to overcome them. I'm here to encourage you on your spiritual journey.

Doctrine

Statement
of Faith

The Trinity

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

The Son

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ — in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, atoning death, bodily resurrection, and personal return.

Salvation

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

The Spirit

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

Resurrection

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost — unto life or unto judgement.

The Church

We believe in the spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
