14 May 2023, Nairobi, Kenya: A young boy sits at the front row, as Sunday service is celebrated in the Eastleigh congregation of the Kenya Evangelical Lutheran Church. The Eastleigh congregation, of Mathare Lutheran Parish, Kenya Evangelical Lutheran Church (KELC), is home to some 1200 congregants, including some 300-400 children. Located in the Nairobi Central District, the church at Eastleigh has become a second home to congregants from other countries who live in Nairobi and now join KELC in prayer on Sundays, the majority of them from Tanzania, but some also from Ethiopia and Zimbabwe. An estimated 300 people join Sunday worship each week at Eastleigh.
