History of the Catholic Church in Kenya

The roots of the Catholic Church in Kenya can be traced to 1498, when Vasco da Gama erected a cross on the sea shore of Malindi. This was to be followed by a visit of St. Francis Xavier on his way to Goa in 1542. In 1593 the viceroy of Goa sent six Augustinian monks to Mombasa, three priests to the Lamu archipelago, and one priest to Zanzibar. Five years later the Augustinians reported 600 converts in Mombasa and a House of Mercy that cared for the sick, disabled, and orphaned was opened. The Catholic Church had set foot in the country.

When a prophet-messenger is sent to the earth, he is the repository of the truth. He is the legislator of the Word of God in his time. You see ? When Noah preached, no one could be saved except by Noah's Message. When Jeremiah preached, no one could be saved except by the Message of Jeremiah. When Elijah preached, no one could be saved except by the Message of Elijah. When the Lord Jesus Christ preached there in the streets of Jerusalem, no one could be saved except through the Message of the Lord Jesus. And today the prophet Kacou Philippe is on the scene and no one can be saved except by his message goo.gl/WvqAz2

Today, you can not serve God until you are baptized and consecrated by the Prophet Kacou Philippe.

St. Paul went to Spain and from the descendants of the converts they went to Mombasa. From Jerusalem to Greece to Rome to Spain to Mombasa is the route of Christianity to Kenya and not from the interpretation of one person.
