Historical Background
Nakuru has been ranked as one of the fastest-growing cities in Kenya. Members of the SDA Church must have foreseen this when the idea of beginning an English-speaking congregation to cater for the growing number of professionals and international Adventists in transit arose.
To cater to this need, the Seventh-day Adventist Church – Crater was started as a Sabbath School of Nakuru West SDA Church in October 1994. Currently, Crater is a District Church in Nakuru East Station, Central Rift Valley Conference, and East Kenya Union Conference.
