KENYA: AMECEA’s Ecclesial Model Leading the Path to New Evangelization
As AMECEA reflects on ways to revitalize, strengthen and cultivate the spirit of solidarity, collegiality and synodality, the Small Christian Communities has become an Ecclesial model that people from other regions and continents are borrowing heavily from AMECEA, says Rev. Fr. Anthony Makunde, Secretary General of AMECEA.
Speaking during a workshop for the implementation of AMECEA 19th Plenary Assembly Resolution on strengthening the spirit of solidarity, collegiality and synodality among member Conferences, Fr. Makunde said that people from other continents are coming AMECEA to learn the model.
“India has borrowed a lot from us to build their Small Christian Communities, and today Europe which evangelized Africa is also coming to learn from us. Those from Tanzania will remember that three or four years ago, a group from Germany came to Bagamoyo to learn about small Christian communities,” Fr. Makunde expressed.
He further indicated that in Kenya people from Europe have come several times and even stayed in parishes to learn about the model and that currently the Coordinator of AMECEA Pastoral Department is organizing another trip for a group of Germans who will be coming to Kenya in February 2020 to stay for almost a month for the same.
