Factors which hindered the expansion of the missionary work in Kenya in the 19th Century
(i) Lack of trained personnel such as ministries, catechists, evangelistic and teachers to do missionary work.
(ii) Lack of resources ( money), to expand the work and put up facilities for missionary work.
(iii) Poor infrastructure e.g. roads and others means of communication. Missionaries could only stay in one station and traveling from one place to Another was difficult .
(iv) Failure by missionaries to use appropriate methods and approaches to win the Africans to Christianity.
(v) Negative attitudes and lack of interest by Africans to Christianity
(vi) Language problems, missionaries would not communicate effectively with the local people and vice versa. Missionaries spent valuable time learning local languages which they could otherwise put into missionary work.
