Anglican dioceses of Nakuru

Nakuru diocese was founded in 1960 from the Diocese of Mombasa, and has since been split twice: to create the Diocese of Eldoret in 1983 and Nyahururu in 1998. It now includes the missionary area of Baringo, which has a suffragan bishop.[1] The Cathedral of the Good Shepherd lies in Nakuru town.[2]

The Diocese of Eldoret was erected from Nakuru diocese in January 1983, and has since been split twice: to create Kitale in 1997 and Kapsabet in 2015.[8][9]

The Diocese of Kitale was erected from Eldoret diocese on 1 July 1997.[10] Since 2017, Lodwar missionary area, geographically within Kitale diocese, has been under the care of a missionary bishop, suffragan to the Bishop of All Saints, the Primate of All Kenya.
