ConCon 2014 - Malawi

 

This year the customary Congregational Conference is scheduled to take place from 19 - 29 August 2014 in Malawi. The venue will be our brothers' house: Bethel community. The participants of such a meeting are the Provincial Superiors and the General Council. Also in attendance this time will be our General Treasurer, Bro. Remy Nyukorong. His task will be to give a report to the meeting on the present financial situation of the congregation and also brief the Provincial Superiors on the forthcoming treasurers' workshop planned for June 2014.

 

 

The whole conference will be in two parts; the first part will be reflective, and will be centered on "Servant Leadership", a topic we deliberated on last year but could not exhaust. This will cover the first three days. It is meant to help deepen the quality of our leadership functioning at both general and provincial levels, and will be facilitated by Bro. Guido.

 

The second will consist of the usual business section and will cover a number of topics, most of which are the follow up of the Provincial and General Chapter resolutions. These include, among others, the resolutions on formation. We shall also find room on the time table for the Ghana/Malawi formation teams to evaluate the joint formation program. The Provincial Superior of Ghana will therefore be going with some formators to Malawi for this purpose.

 

Other topics tabled for discussion include the preventing of sexual abuse of minors, FIC website, FIC magazine, the OASIS gathering in November/December 2014, and financial issues. Apart from that, the FIC congregation will be 175 years old in 2015. Therefore, the General Council will give some information on how this event will be celebrated in The Netherlands, and this will be followed by sharing of information on how our provinces will mark the year, especially Ghana which will be celebrating 50 years of FIC presence in the country.
