This study analyzed the factors that affected the motivation of the Presbyterian Church of East Africa Church Evangelist. Factors of recognition, interesting work, job security, promotion and growth, policies and structures, rewards and remuneration, good working conditions and relation with superior were studied and used to assess the motivation of the Church Evangelists. This study sought to determine the level of motivation among the Evangelists of P.C.E.A. church in Nairobi region, what factors contribute to employee motivation and the effects that motivation have on job satisfaction of the employees. The study showed that over half of the Evangelists involved in this study felt that the church did not motivate them. This affected the job satisfaction of the Evangelists that many did not want to work as Evangelists the rest of their life. The study looked at various factors affecting employee motivation and found that if the factors discussed in the study were provided to the employees they would enjoy more job satisfaction. This therefore calls for the church as an employing body to come with clear systems on how to motivate employees. The study provides ways in which the church can address the dissatisfaction and ensure that the evangelists are motivated.
