About

Brief Church History and mandate

Seventh-day Adventist Church Maravile is a local church under the Newlife District, Narok Station, in the Central Rift Valley Conference. The church was established in the year 2025 as a Sabbath School church under the care of Newlife SDA (the mother church). What began as a small gathering of faithful believers soon grew into a vibrant worshiping community, yearning for a permanent spiritual home. On 13th June 2026, Maravile was officially organized as a fully-ledged church by the Central Rift Valley Conference (CRVC) officials. As of that historic date, the church had [xx] registered members who were ready to serve the Lord and their community. The church currently conducts almost all of its services in the English language, which serves as the official language of worship and fellowship. However, other officially recognized languages in Kenya—such as Kiswahili and local dialects—may be used occasionally as necessary to ensure that no one is left out of the blessing of worship. Maravile SDA Church is currently pastored by Pr. Airo, with Eld. Job Ogada serving as the head elder.
