Descrizione:
The book offers some evidence of a positive relationship between the Holy Spirit and the youth in Africa. The reality of Africa has been particularly interesting for their hunger for God. The history of the postVatican II Catholic Church of its reception in Africa remains largely the perspective and perception. The book opens us a new dimension of youth witnessing to Christ in the Church and human society, first in the context of Catholic Youth Organization of Nigeria (CYON) and secondly in the context of SECAM. In the context of CYON, there are wide variations of youth witnessing in terms of kerygma, koinonia, diakonia and martyria. Kerygma, koinonia, diakonia and martyria are the real heartstring of the Gospel and core of the identity of the ChurchFamily of God in Africa. The Symposium of Episcopal Conferences of Africa and Madagascar (SECAM), like CYON, is an ecclesial body that developed within the roots of the ChurchFamily of God in Africa. The book creates an integrating and lived experience of the celebrity of SECAM Golden jubilee within the hope of a renewed vigour and vivified presence of the ChurchFamily of God in Africa.
