About St. Stephen's

The ACK St. Stephen's Cathedral in Kisumu, locally known as “Komulo” after pioneer priest Rev. Reuben Omulo, was originally built in 1913. Established by Anglican missionaries, it has grown to become the seat of the Diocese of Maseno South.

In obedience to the Great Commission, the Cathedral's holistic ministry makes disciples, proclaims Good News, heals communities, challenges injustice, and safeguards creation.
