The Diocese of Fort Hall was renamed as Mount Kenya diocese in 1964, a few years after its erection from the Diocese of Mombasa; it was then split in 1975, into East and South; Kariuki, the last Bishop of Mount Kenya, became the first Bishop of Mount Kenya South. The Central diocese was split off in 1984, the West in 1993, and then Thika diocese (from the South and Central dioceses) in 1998.^[1] The present cathedral is St James's Cathedral Kiambu.^[2]

The Diocese of Mount Kenya East was erected from Mount Kenya diocese in 1975 and was itself then split on 1 July 1990, when Kirinyaga diocese was formed: Gitari was elected to that See, but the old cathedral of the eastern mountain diocese was in the new Embu diocese. On 1 July 1997, the Diocese was split again to create Mbeere diocese.^[8]

Erected in 1984^[11] on the division of Mount Kenya South diocese, the Central diocese was itself split in 1993 (Mount Kenya West) and in 1998 (Thika).^[12]

The Kirinyaga diocese was created in July 1990 from the Diocese of Mount Kenya East; the Diocese of Meru was split from this diocese in 1997.^[14]

Mount Kenya West was erected in 1993 from Mount Kenya Central.^[16]

The Diocese of Mbeere was erected from the Diocese of Embu on 1 July 1997.^[18]

1 July 1997 also saw the creation of the Diocese of Meru from the Diocese of Kirinyaga.^[19]

Thika diocese was created from portions of two dioceses — Mount Kenya South and Mount Kenya Central — on 1 July 1998.^[20]

Marsabit, then in the Diocese of Kirinyaga, was erected into a Mission Area directly under the Archbishop in 2008 — it was therefore part of the All Saints' Cathedral Diocese — and eventually given autonomy as its own diocese in 2011.^[22]

Similarly, Murang'a South was another Mission Area of All Saints' from 2008, but originally part of Kirinyaga diocese. It has been a diocese in its own right since 2013.
