Seven years ago, a church was set up in the eastern part of the city. It was in 2005 when Pastor Gowi & 20 fearless influencers from Nairobi Chapel (Main Church) moved to eastlands with a mission of turning ordinary people into fearless influencers in the society.
Seven years later,Mashariki has grown to an average of 300 adults,130 kids & a growing number of teens.This month, Mashariki held a concert branded 'Mashariki 7s' to celebrate their seventh birthday.All proceeds from the event went to support Mashariki's capital drive Dandia ma3 initiative that seeks to give our church a much needed 'face lift' & to refurnish it to a place of influence.Unity college,IAT and afew colleges can to advertise their schools to our to our budding youth who have completed high school and Nairobi Women's Hospital gave free breast cancer check-ups to men & women
