This issue has again been at the forefront of the media in recent months and weeks and reminds us that the church and people called to ministry in the church can become perpetrators of abuse towards others, even children, and can enjoy the protection of the church structures at the expense of their victims. I have written in my pastoral letter this week about Michael Lapsley a South African Anglican Priest who was severely injured by a letter bomb sent to him while he was living in exile in Harare in 1990. Both hands and one eye were destroyed by the bomb which had been hidden amongst religious magazines sent to his home. These stories are amongst many that could be told of hurt inflicted in the name of or through the structures of faith.

Dekar, Niswonger Professor of Evangelism and Missions, Memphis Theological Seminary, 168 East Parkway South, Memphis TN USA 38104. (c) Paul R. Dekar After three years of United States government and church service in Cameroon, Dekar wrote a Ph.D. thesis on Presbyterian work in Cameroon (University of Chicago, 1978). From 1976-1995 he taught at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Books include For the Healing of the Nations (Macon: Smyth and Helwys, 1993) and Holy Boldness: Practices of an Evangelistic Lifestyle (Macon: Smyth and Helwys, in press). Abstract This article surveys West Africa outreach between 1841-1888 by the London-based Baptist Missionary Society (hereafter BMS) and the Kingston-based Jamaican Baptist Missionary Society (hereafter JBMS). Documentation focuses on responses of mission board leaders, missionaries, the local Creole community and African Christians to the reality of growing interference by European powers and the imposition of colonial rule on the region. This case study elucidates the complex role of missionaries in the process by which the West came to exercise political and economic domination of Africa. It complements a survey of the role of black Americans in the Protestant missionary movement in Africa.(1) Introduction This study explores the complex role of missionaries in the process by which the West came to exercise political and economic domination of Africa. As a case study, the article surveys West Africa outreach between 1841-1888 by the London-based BMS and the Kingston-based JBMS. The period encompasses crucial dates, including

Extractions: The African Inland Church wishes to join the WCC to break out of its isolation, share a common ecumenical vision, enjoy the fellowship of worship and prayer, build capacity and develop human resources through exchange, exposure and formation. Together with the other churches in Sudan, the AIC is deeply involved in bringing relief to the displaced persons and other victims of the war in Sudan and in the efforts to bring peace and reconciliation. The church was visited by Rev. Yadessa Daba, President of the Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus and member of the Executive Committee, and Rev. Enock Tombe, General Secretary of the Sudan Council of Churches. They recommend that the church be received into membership. The Africa Inland Church is a member of the Sudan Council of Churches, which supports its application for WCC membership. Association des Eglises baptistes au Rwanda (Association of Baptist Churches in Rwanda) The churches which form the Association of Baptist Churches in Rwanda came into being through the work of the Baptist Foreign Mission Society of the USA.

Extractions: While she remains one of the most popular and frequently propitiated lwa, Ezili Danto has a mixed reputation. Many neopagans (and even some Vodouisants) see only Her tooth-grinding rage, deeply scarred face and razor-sharp dagger, and label Her an "evil spirit." For a long time I feared Danto and avoided working with Her. As I became more deeply involved in Vodou (and, ultimately, became initiated as a houngan in March 2003), I discovered that Danto is above all else a loving mother who gives Her children the strength to face any obstacles. She may be a fearsome warrior, but she is also a faithful protector who works hard and quickly for Her devotees. Now that I have been fortunate enough to meet Danto face-to-face at several ceremonies, my fear has been replaced by love and a deep respect for this powerful spirit. Haitian Vodou has incorporated a great deal of imagery from Roman Catholicism. Lithographs of saints are often used to represent the lwa (spirits, also known as

Carleton College: Art Gallery: Burkina Faso centuries ago, they subjugated indigenous populations fiercely independent, politically decentralized peoples to the the Mossi, including the bwa, Bobo, Kassena http://www.carleton.edu/campus/gallery/exhibitions/2002/burkinaFaso/
Extractions: April 3 - May 8, 2002 The art works gathered here come from Burkina Faso, the West African nation formerly known as Upper Volta. In 1984, former President Thomas Sankara (1949-1987) renamed the country Burkina Faso, drawing together words from the languages of the country's major populations, the Mossi and the Dyula. Roughly translated, Burkina Faso means "the land of upright people." Located at the southern edge of the Sahara Desert, with national boundaries drawn by the French during the colonial era, many diverse peoples live in this dry, landlocked country, independent since 1960. Burkina Faso's population is made up of more than sixty different ethnic groups. The country's complex cultural diversity is reflected in this exhibition which includes works of art by Bwa, Bobo, Kassena, Lela, Lobi, Mossi, Nuna, Nunama, Toussian, Turka, and Winiama artists. While Burkina Faso is often described as one of the most economically impoverished countries in the world, with an average annual per capita income of between two and three hundred dollars, in terms of cultural traditions, it is one of the richest places on earth. The peoples of Burkina Faso create a wide range of objects, diverse in form, function, size and scale, and employing many different materials and technologies. Within their original contexts, art works are valued not only for their aesthetic qualities, but also for their functional efficacy. In Burkina Faso, art is not just something to look at, but also serves life-sustaining purposes, vital to the well-being of individuals and the larger society.

The country's national principles of democracy, unity and self reliance have been successfully implemented to maintain positive growth and, both in seeking to cope with its disadvantages and in emphasising its advantages, employers and employed are joined together in the effort to make 'Enterprise Botswana' a going concern. In a global economy becoming increasingly inter-dependent, Botswana is looking to active participation. The Okavango Delta - a landscape of flood plains. Although it is a landlocked country, its very position gives Botswana a competitive edge for, lying as it does at the centre of the southern African region, it has relatively easy access to all regional markets amd is thus able to draw on regional resources relatively easily. LOCATION AND TOPOGRAPHY Located in southern Africa, with Namibia (in the west and north), Zambia and Zimbabwe (in the north-east), and South Africa (in the east and south) as neighbours, the Republic of Botswana is a relatively flat country approximately 582000 square kilometres in area. The eastern portion contains the highest and lowest points (almost 1500 metres and about 500 metres, respectively), with hills, valley, and rocky outcrops. The flat, vast western portions is semi-arid with rocky outcrops. Two -third of the country is characterised by gently undulating, sandy plains, with the central portion a shallow basin. One of southern Africa's longest rivers, the Okavango, flows through the country, fanning out into a delta of some 15000 square kilometres to form a uniqueenvironment with a myriad of water channels.

A warrior path with heart, the Keltic approach to spirit communion, healing and empowerment is known as the way of the Hero - the man or woman who is not afraid to face the challenges of life and encounter the enemies within in order to find beauty, truth and wisdom. In this 5-day workshop, set in the beautiful monastery of Holy Island, Scotland, we use the little-known shamanic techniques of the ancient Keltic peoples in order to: Divine our futures and understand the questions and issues that concern us Journey to the spirit world in the way of the Bards to find poetic inspiration of our own Understand Keltic trance postures for shape-shifting and future-seeing Practice the healing approaches of spirit extraction and soul retrieval through Warriorship Work with the energy body via the spirits of Nature Explore the geis - the curse or life-script - that has been laid on us and defuse it through our spiritual work Make magical and natural potions for rejuvenation and the attraction of good fortune

"He said, Africa is a very rich and wonderful continent BUT with so many problems which we cause for ourselves. African have been pointing fingers at colonialism for Africa`s present state, but the thing is, we got independent and no longer under the ugly colonialism. What have we as African, done to change the harm caused on us by colonialism. What do we plan to do to utilise Africa`s resources and beauty positively? I blamed African`s leaders for the present Africa` state because they have changed our beautiful continent into a land of blood shed. They waste most of our resources into plotting for conflicts, wars instead of using it for a positive course. We have to stop fighting each other if Africa is to develop" Well, we have to realise that we are born in a spoilt culture of pointing fingers and as young people, we have to fight that if we are to build Africa. Our leaders think wars/conflicts will solve our problems but we say NO! I again quote a sentence that Kumi Naidoo , Civicus General Secretary and Machel Gracia said during the CIVICUS World Assembly in Botswana recently which i attended.
