African Liaison

Our friends at Emergent are introducing us to African Liaison and the Amahoro African Gathering in Kampala, Uganda scheduled for May 2007.

Africa has entered what historians and sociologists are calling the Post-Colonial era. The future of this era is uncertain, but there are voices from throughout Africa calling for an era of innovation, of creativity, of justice, of peace, of hope.

What will the church in Post-Colonial Africa look like? What yokes must be thrown off so that the Gospel of the Kingdom can go forth to transform and empower a continent in desperate need of the transformation that Christ offers? What will the church that is emerging in Africa look like? What concrete steps can be taken to bring hope to the suffering people of Africa? These questions, among others, are vital to the future of the church in Africa, questions that must be asked by responsible Christian leaders looking to see their continent transformed.

...It’s our goal to raise $30,000 to pay for 140 African leaders to attend the gathering. The funding will also help underwrite other costs associated with hosting the event and planting the seeds for an on-going network and conversation. Would you consider being a part of this gathering by investing in the future of these emerging African leaders?

Consider supporting global missions by making a contribution in support of their effort.
