The SMA missionaries.
The Society of African Mission in Kenya are part of the larger family of Catholic missionaries who serve the people of Africa.
The early presence in Kenya
The early presence of the Society of African Missions in Kenya is closely knit with the arrival of the missionaries in the Archdiocese of Nairobi.
Expansion of the SMA
The SMA later expanded to other territories first of all in the Diocese of Lodwar with the consecration of Bishop Patrick Harrington in March 2000...
The SMA was founded at Lyons, France on 8th December 1856
by Mgr Melchior de Marion Brésillac. Faithfully following in the footsteps of our Founder, the SMA missionaries in Kenya continue to be a ray of hope, shining the light of Christ among the people we serve and especially the most abandoned.
