    (Tangaza University College, 2006) K. Rutatinisibwa, Edwin
    Throughout history Women have experienced various levels and diverse forms of violence. We hear of several incidents of sexual and domestic violence against women. It is believed that, women in our societies have been exposed to exploitations, discriminations, abuses and frustrations among others. Abortion and rape in Kenyan society have been increasing everyday. Problems facing women are not confined to those in traditional societies. They extend to the so called modern societies too. In Kenya nowadays, rape is one of the most worrying realities confronting females. It is shocking that daily there are incidents of rape and abortion being reported. The serious social impacts of such a situation poses, a major challenge to the Kenyan Church. Every individual by nature has to pass through various stages in life. It is unavoidable for a human being to live without challenges and problems in his/her lifetime. Always changes bring growth and make the individual become mature. The Church, which fights for equality and human rights in order to bring peace and justice all over the world, has a lot to do as far as Kenyan Society is concerned.
