Welcome to our Blog! What are the goals of "Africonnection"? To further the Kingdom. To help North American friends make a connection with the lives and experiences of their brothers and sisters in Africa. And to give North American friends an opportunity to partner with Africa Nazarene University as it supports the Kingdom through the Church of the Nazarene in Africa.

ANU's Beautiful Gardens


It's easy to see why The Standard, one of Kenya's premier newspapers, called the Africa Nazarene University campus an "oasis" in the suburbs of Nairobi. The University Vice Chancellor supervised the original plantings and still takes an active interest in the gardens.The area between the four story administration building and the campus library is filled with flowers, bushes and trees. University staff work daily to water, prune, and encourage the plantlife. The moderate climate encourages plant growth that can be astonishing to North Americans. Several places on the campus are poinsettia plants that are over five feet tall. Other plants are similarly lush and attractive.
