Religion in Kenya

After spending time in Kenya one thing i have noticed is the amount of Churches dotted all over the towns, after speaking to the locals about this they told me that many of the Churches are said to be a business. Many of the people create their own Church, Following the fundamentals of a Christian or Catholic Church that we know in the western world, but with a twist the Church charges to join in some cases, or just accepts payments as a way of redemption.

Well For the last 2 months i have been working in Kenya, i will be home on the 12th of December and to be Honest i cant wait to get back, Seeing Kenya has been an eye opener Africa is in a pretty bad way even though a lot of westerners see Kenya as a tourist spot, a few parts are, but when i’m driving around i see so many places that remind myself that this country is in the 3rd World, Well here a few more Photos.
