JCC Buxton.
JCC Buxton is our home on Mombasa Island. Four Sunday services across English and Kiswahili, a midweek Bible Focus, and a weekday Grace Hour at lunchtime — right in the heart of town.
A church for the island.
JCC Buxton serves the heart of Mombasa Island and the surrounding communities of Tudor, Tononoka, Majengo and Kibokoni. Four Sunday services means there’s a time that fits whatever your weekend looks like — including a workers’ service early in the morning and an evening service for those on later shifts.
The School of Ministry offices are also on-site at Buxton 1st floor — if you’re enquiring about training, this is where you visit during the week.
Four Sunday services.
6:30 AM Workers’ Service
For workers, traders and anyone with a Sunday shift. A focused service of worship and the Word so you can start the day with God before work.

Right in the heart of Mombasa Island.
JCC Buxton is on the island, accessible from anywhere on Mombasa Island and a short matatu ride from Mtwapa, Likoni and Changamwe.
By car
From the mainland take Nyali Bridge or Likoni Ferry into the island. Buxton is centrally located near Tononoka. There’s street parking around the centre.
By matatu
Any matatu heading to town from Tudor, Kibokoni, Majengo or Mtwapa drops near Buxton. The centre is a short walk from the main matatu stage.
From the South Coast
Take Likoni Ferry across to the island, then any matatu heading into town will get you close. Allow extra time on Sunday mornings.
When to arrive
Get there 10–15 minutes early so you can settle in and meet a few people before the service starts.
