European Missionaries introduced Christianity in various parts of Kenya, including among the Agìkūyū where the traditional way of life rapidly changed. Colonial administrators intended to change the economic and political way of life of the Agìkūyū, missionaries focused on the cultural norms and religious beliefs and practices. Missionary Christianity was introduced clothed in Western culture, and formal schooling intertwined with religious teaching aimed at winning converts. Thus, some core elements of the Agìkūyū traditional way of life and religion were fundamentally and adversely affected by this encounter. Throughout the twentieth century (and in the twenty-first) African responses to the missionary enterprise have been both positive and critical. While some Africans have accepted missionary teachings with varying intensity, others have rejected such teachings outright, opting to resuscitate the beliefs and practices condemned and banned by both the missionary and colonial authorities. Thus, there are several attempts by some groups among the Agìkūyū to go back to their traditional customs and values. Such initiatives are of evidence of resilience hence resurgence of African religion and spirituality. The focus of this paper is on the annual Mount Kenya prayers among Agìkūyū Christians as a key element of and pointer to the resilience hence resurgence of African spirituality. African traditional religion Kenyatta (1938), and cosmology theories Mbiti (1969) are the theories guiding this paper. In light of the increased cultural diversity, this paper focuses on the value and relevance of African religion while at the same time highlighting the lessons, challenges, and prospects of this resilience in Africa and globally.
