UCLA Catalog Record ID UCLA Catalog Record ID: 3467253 Biography Founded in 1868 by Charles M. Lavigerie, Archbishop of Algiers, the White Fathers is a Catholic society also known as the Society of Missionaries of Africa; after Lavigerie died in 1892, Léon Livinhac became superior general of the White Fathers; in 1908, the Holy See approved the society's constitutions; members of the White Fathers are bound by an oath to the establishment of the Catholic Church on the African continent. Scope and Content Collection consists of a typed carbon set of responses to a 1950 inquiry sent by the White Fathers to its missions in West and Central Africa. The inquiry's purpose was to gather ethnographic data from each mission and to increase priests' familiarity with the customs of the indigenous people. Expanded Scope and Content The purpose of the enquiry was two-fold: first, to gather ethnographic data from each mission or stations; and second, to increase the familiarity of the priests with the traditional customs of the indigenous people of their flock through the process of gathering the data. A sample of a blank enquiry/questionnaire is included (see Box 11, Folder 6) The enquiry is divided into 6 parts with 12 sub-chapters (see the Questionnaire Outline at the beginning of the container list for further information on the break-down of the enquiry). The responses to the enquiry are filed with the enquiry questions. They comprise the bulk of the records and vary significantly in both length and content from mission to mission. They are mostly dated 1951-1952, the few later dates are indicated in the finding aid. In a few cases there are papers supplementing the responses, and manuscript notations in ink and pencil to the typed record. The supplemental papers have been noted in the finding aid, as have the minority of instances where the return has been made by a named individual. Following the arrangement of the bound set in the White Fathers Archives noted above, the records have been arranged generally by area: West Africa, which includes Mali, Burkina Faso, northern Guinea, northern Ghana and a small section of Nigeria; and Central Africa which includes eastern Zaire, Rwanda, Burundi, Uganda, western Tanzania, western Zambia, parts of Malawi and Mozambique. Within the geographical areas, the arrangement follows that of the organizational structure of the White Fathers missions The organizing entities for the White Father's missions are the Apostolic Vicariate (V.A.) and the Apostolic Prefecture(P.A.). The answers to the enquiry are collected by V.A. or P.A. Within each V.A. or P.A. the answers are sorted by ethnicity and then a listing of the parts answered. Organization and Arrangement Finding Aid for the White Fathers 246 3 Records, 1950-1960 bulk 1951-1952 Arranged in the following series: 1. West Africa. 2. Central Africa. The records comprise a typed carbon set of responses to an enquiry sent in 1950 by the White Fathers, a Roman Catholic Church missionary order, to its missions in West and Central Africa, with related materials. The extent of records is estimated at 18,000 pages. Languages French, except for one paper and one part (see Cewa, Box 9, Folder 2) in English. Ethnicity The ethnicities have been Anglicized and standardized by Dr. Christopher Ehret, UCLA. The standardized ethnicity is followed by the ethnicity indicated in French on the records, put in brackets [], when they differ significantly. In the cases of Bantu-speaking people, the Bantu prefix of Wa, Ba etc. has almost always been omitted, unless necessary for identification. For less well-known ethnicities there are linguistic identification in italics, based on George Murdock's The Peoples of Africa, New York, McGraw-Hill, 1959.

  • The White Fathers' Archive in Zambia
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Kent Academic Repository THE WHITE FATHERS’ ARCHIVE IN ZAMBIA 1 Marja Hinfelaar and Giacomo Macola I The archive of the Generalate of the White Fathers (WF) in Rome is a well-known “treasure trove for Africanists of all disciplines.” 2 Owing partly to the availability of a series of published catalogues and guides, 3 it attracts a steady flow of external researchers and figures prominently in the bibliographies of numerous recent works on sub-Saharan African history. What many Africanists might not be aware of, however, is the existence of regional WF’s archives, the holdings of which do not necessarily replicate – and in fact often complement – those of the central Roman deposit. It is to this latter, by and large neglected, category that the archive of the WF’s headquarters in Lusaka, Zambia (WFA- Z), belongs. In the summer of 2001, Fr. Hugo Hinfelaar – long-standing missionary in 1 Marja Hinfelaar is indebted to CMC/AMA, in The Netherlands, for supporting her research on the history of the Catholic church in Zambia. Giacomo Macola wishes to thank the Leverhulme Trust for awarding him a Study Abroad Studentship which enabled him to carry out fieldwork in Zambia in 2001-2002. 2 C.W.

Luke Dysinger, OSB Mission and Monasticism, Studia Anselmiana 158, Analecta Monastica 13, (Sant’ Anselmo, Rome; EOS Verlag, Germany, 2013), pp. 185-195. The story of the Benedictines of Szechwan Province during the first half of the Twentieth Century can be divided into three epochs or phases encompassing two geographic locations. The three phases correspond to the first three superiors of the monastery, each of whom possessed a unique vision of how Benedictine monasticism could best serve the needs of the Catholic Church in China. The two geographic locations are: Xishan, near Shunqing, where the community was first established in 1929; and Chengdu, the capital of Szechwan Province where in 1942 the monks were compelled by the vicissitudes World War II to seek refuge 1: CONTEMPLATIVE ASPIRATIONS 1927-1933: Xihan, Prior Jehan Joliet In 1926 Dom Jehan Joliet, a monk of the Abbey of Solesmes, and Dom Pie de Cocqueau of the Abbey of St. André (now know as SintAndries, Zevenkerken), departed the port of Marseilles for Beijing. They were to establish a new monastic foundation that would be a canonical dependency of St. André.1 The Benedictine Abbey of St. André had been designated at its inception as a “Monastery for the Missions”. Since 1898 the community had been committed to monastic missionary work in Brazil by its founder, Abbot Gerard Van Caloen; and in 1910 his successor, Theodore Neve, pledged the community to work in Africa by accepting the Apostolic Prefecture of Katanga in the Congo.

  • Encounters Between Jesuit and Protestant Missionaries in Their Approaches to Evangelization in Zambia
    chapter 4 Encounters between Jesuit and Protestant Missionaries in their Approaches to Evangelization in Zambia Choobe Maambo, s.j. Africa’s reception of Christianity and the pace at which the faith permeated the continent were incredibly slow. Although the north, especially Ethiopia and Egypt, is believed to have come under Christian influence as early as the first century, it was not until the fourth century that Christianity became more widespread in north Africa under the influence of the patristic fathers. From the time of the African church fathers up until the fifteenth century, there was no trace of the Christian church south of the Sahara. According to William Lane, s.j.: It was not until the end of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries that Christianity began to spread to the more southerly areas of Africa. The Portuguese, in their search for a sea route to India, set up bases along the East and West African coasts. Since Portugal was a Christian country, mis- sionaries followed in the wake of the traders with the aim of spreading the Gospel and setting up the Church along the African coasts.1 Prince Henry the Navigator (1394–1460) of Portugal was the man behind these expeditions, in which priests “served as chaplains to the new trading settle- ments and as missionaries to neighboring African people.”2 Hence, at the close of the sixteenth century, Christian missionary work had increased significantly south of the Sahara. In Central Africa, and more specifically in the Kingdom of Kongo, the Gospel was preached to the king and his royal family as early as 1484.

  • The Blood of Love
    The blood of love The martyrs of Algeria (1994-1996) The Church of Algeria This booklet presents a group of nineteen martyrs of the Church of Algeria. All were passionate about their Church, of which they were zealous servants, and passionate also about Algeria and its people where they had weaved their friendships. Humble and gentle, the Lord radiated from their hearts, in their lives and in their silence. They witnessed to a settled, lucid faith, the faith of those preparing the space for dialogue in their prayer and in their presence. They are a very beautiful image of the Church of Algeria: small, a few thousand faithful people, dispersed in four dioceses: Alger, Oran, Constantine- Ippone et Laghouat. It is a living Church by its poverty as it has lost its social power and pomp. Daily, it lives love and service. Thus purified and without ambitions, it can be a bridgehead for dialogue with Islam.
