Reconciliation
and Renewal
African Enterprise
Emmanuel
is an evangelist for African Enterprise (AE) and is now heading
the Leadership and Reconciliation ministries for AE. This
ministry attempts to resolve conflicts within Africa and
also augments the evangelistic ministries within the cities
of Africa. The recent focus has been reconciliation in
Burundi and other war-torn areas. Since August of 2002, Emmanuel
has helped to hold at least two healing and reconciliation
seminars a month. These are conducted in parallel with the
ongoing official negotiations between rebels and transition
governments in Burundi based on the Arusha Peace Accord. One
of the major objectives is the pursuit of the unity within
the body of Christ. God's spirit has been evident in dealing
with rebels as one leader said "
the approach
we have taken should have been employed from 1997, by now
the problems of Burundi would have been solved."
Another one reiterated that, "
this approach
makes us all feel like we belong to the same country facing
the same problems." There is hope of seeing the splintered
armed groups create a common stand in all facets of their
struggle for peace of their land and peoples.
