    Expanding Learning in Clergy Leadership Formation in an Anglican Church Province in Southern Africa: a Critical Realist Study

    Expanding Learning in Clergy Leadership Formation in an Anglican Church Province in Southern Africa: A Critical Realist Study A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY of Rhodes University by PERCY CHINGANGA February 2019 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the Archbishop of Cape Town and Metropolitan of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, the Right Revd Dr. Thabo Makgoba, the Office of the Archbishop of Cape Town, USPG, Hope Africa and The College of the Transfiguration for exposing me to the possibilities of embarking on a study of this nature through involving me in a partnership research initiative whose goal was to establish leadership development needs in ACSA. It was on the basis of that ground-breaking research programme that this study was conceptualised and developed. In addition to the above, I run short of words to measure my indebtedness to the generosity extended to me in the form of material and spiritual support from Archbishop Makgoba and all the personnel who represented the above-mentioned organisations in the planning and management of the research processes which culminated in the success of this study. Thank you to College of the Transfiguration Council for allowing me to go on sabbatical leave for the purposes of this study. A huge thank you also goes to my colleagues on the teaching staff and support staff at College of the Transfiguration for their unwavering encouragement and support throughout the course of the study. I also extend a big thank you to Mr. Tom Linthicum, a colleague who partnered me in the ground-breaking research programme and also did some of my teaching at College of the Transfiguration; Mrs Dorothy Linthicum, who held the fort on my behalf in the College of the Transfiguration academic, spiritual and ministerial formation routine in the duration of the ground-breaking research programme.

    The Implementation of the Isiseko Sokomoleza Hiv/Aids Programme in the Diocese of False Bay: a Critical Theological Investigation

    THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ISISEKO SOKOMOLEZA HIV/AIDS PROGRAMME IN THE DIOCESE OF FALSE BAY: A CRITICAL THEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION Desmond J. Lambrechts Student Number: 8322440 Dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of D. Phil in the Department of Religion and Theology Faculty of Arts University of the Western Cape Supervisor: Dr Miranda Pillay And Prof Ernst Conradie Date: May 2019 1 http://etd.uwc.ac.za/ ABSTRACT The multidimensional nature of the AIDS pandemic continues to pose challenges within all spheres of society, for example health and religion, human rights, social development politics, economics, human sexuality, and Christian theologies - in particular, the pastoral and caring ministries, as well as the educational ministries. Its multidimensional nature is further exacerbated by factors of, stigma, gender power-relations, poverty, and violence against women and children. The Anglican Church of Southern Africa, in particular the Diocese of False Bay, has responded to the challenges relating to stigma reduction through many programmes, campaigns and workshops. Despite the implementation of the Isiseko Sokomoleza HIV/AIDS Programme in the Diocese of False Bay, it has had a limited impact on reducing the stigma associated with HIV/AIDS. As such, stigma remains a critical challenge in the pastoral response of the Church. In light of this observation, the question pertinent to this research project is; “What are the most significant reasons for the limited impact of the Isiseko Sokomoleza HIV/AIDS Programme in the Diocese of False Bay?” The framework of Practical Theology, with special emphasis on pastoral care and counselling, will be used as the theological framework to explore the reasons for the limited impact.

Hollywood and secular culture of course doesn’t – they are clear that angels are winged beings who shed Cycle of Prayer feathers and do something akin to magic. But the Bible is clear: angels have two jobs – to act as messengers (and the word “angelos” simply for daily use in August and September 2018 means “messenger” in Greek; and they are signs of God’s glory. And most angels don’t have wings – only the cherubim and seraphim. So Daily prayers are on Twitter @chelmsdio #chelmsdio_cop. today’s readings invite us in the first place to celebrate God’s glory, and The Cycle of Prayer can be downloaded from secondly to get ready to hear God speak. www.chelmsford.anglican.org/publications/view/cycle‐of‐prayer.
