The Bahá'í Faith in Kenya begins with three individuals. First Richard St. Barbe Baker took a constructive engagement with the indigenous religion of Kenyans to a United Kingdom conference on religions where in sympathy with his efforts he was presented with the Bahá'í Faith and became a convert. The second was Enoch Olinga who traveled to Kenya when he served in the British Royal Army Educational Corps. The third came twenty one years after the first and marks the arrival of the Bahá'í Faith in Kenya. In 1945 Mrs. Marguerite Preston (née Wellby) arrived in Kenya. She had been a member of the National Spiritual Assembly of the United Kingdom from 1939 through 1945 when she married a Kenyan tea grower and moved to Kenya where the couple had three children in two years and she was the only Bahá'í in the nation. The Association of Religion Data Archives (relying on World Christian Encyclopedia) estimated about 368,000 in 2005.
