Most first-time visitors to a “Mormon” Church building comment on the number of rooms. Many expect to find one large interior space, such as in many other Christian denominations’ buildings of worship.  But meetinghouses for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (also known as the Mormons) are different from those used by many other religions.  The Naivasha Branch of the Church held an Open House to share their building with the community.

Every other year the youth of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints living in the Kilungu Hills participate in a Youth Conference. The planning of the latest activity began in October 2011 with the challenge that all of the youth and leaders read the Book of Mormon by August 2012. The youth are challenged to develop a theme around which the activities will be based; a theme based on the notion that you cannot share the gospel until you know and read the gospel contained in the scriptures.
