  • 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.

  • 96 Chitokoloki: Celebrating a Century of the Lord's Work in Northwestern Zambia Alma Turnbull Port Colborne, ON: Gospel Folio
    BHR 11: 95–7 Chitokoloki: Celebrating a Century of the Lord’s Work in Northwestern Zambia Alma Turnbull Port Colborne, ON: Gospel Folio Press, 2014 164 pp.+photos ISBN: 978-1-927521-55-7 £15.99 On 11 January 1914 Frederick Stanley Arnot arrived on the Kabompo river in Northern Rhodesia, at its confluence with the Zambezi. His missionary companions were George Suckling and Lambert Rogers. They were looking for a suitable spot in which to establish a mission station for outreach among the Luvale people. A fortnight later, however, Arnot’s spleen ruptured, forcing his return to Johannesburg. It would be his last expedition. He died in May in South Africa. In the final words of his last book he had written: ‘Messers. Suckling and Rogers had no hesitation in deciding to stay on. May the Lord’s richest blessing rest upon them’.1 Within two years Rogers, too, was dead and the burden of the mission fell on Suckling. At the place known as Chitokoloki—meaning ‘a place of bright shining’—he established a printing press and a school, with the aim of reaching through education the Lunda people, on whom his work came to focus. Later, came medical work, with the addition of a hospital and a leper colony. Alma Turnbull’s book, as the subtitle indicates, was published to coincide with the centenary of the mission of Suckling and Rogers. It is a fitting celebration, being lavishly illustrated on high-quality, glossy paper, with all but a few of the photographs in colour. She traces the beginning of the mission and the vast influence that George Suckling had on the area, and takes the story up to the present time.

  • Brethren and the Sao Tomé Cocoa Slavery Controversy: the Role of Charles A
    BHR 4: 98-113 BRETHREN AND THE SAO TOMÉ COCOA SLAVERY CONTROVERSY: THE ROLE OF CHARLES A. SWAN (1861-1934)1 Tim Grass It is a commonplace of Brethren historiography that their missionaries sought to stand apart from matters to do with local politics and colonial administration, focusing on the proclamation of the gospel. However, such a view has been challenged by a few writers, and it is fair to say that it has been more of a reflection of attitudes at home than of the situation ‘on the field’. This is strikingly demonstrated by the involvement of the Brethren missionary Charles A. Swan (1861- 1934) in anti-slavery campaigning, and the way in which his career has been treated by later writers on Brethren mission. Swan was born and brought up in Sunderland, becoming a clerk on leaving school. Around the age of nineteen Swan was converted, mainly through the preaching of A.A. Rees (1815-84) at Bethesda Chapel. Rees was one of a number of pastors of independent evangelical causes who were to a considerable extent fellow-travellers with Brethren,2 and so it was a relatively easy step for Swan to begin attending a Brethren assembly, where he began to be exercised about becoming a missionary. Even before his conversion, he had been interested in things African, and after it he devoured Livingstone’s books as well as keeping up with reports of Fred Arnot’s work in Central Africa (Arnot had gone out in 1881).3 When he went abroad in 1886, it was in fellowship with the editors of Echoes of Service, 1.

  • FINISHING the JOB: TRANSFORMING the ZAMBIAN CHURCH from a MISSIONARY SENDING to MISSIONARY RECEIVING CHURCH Brad Kelly DM807
    FINISHING THE JOB: TRANSFORMING THE ZAMBIAN CHURCH FROM A MISSIONARY SENDING TO MISSIONARY RECEIVING CHURCH Brad Kelly DM807 Missions and Evangelism June 8, 2015 Ligonier Academy Zambia was one of the last African nations to be “effectively missionized.”1 The story of the Christian mission effort in Zambia, as it does for the majority of that region of Africa, begins with David Livingstone. While Livingstone did not spend an extended amount of time in Zambia, the news of his travels awakened Europe to the needs of the people and land. It was in Zambia, on May 1, 1873, that Livingstone died on his knees in prayer. It was in Zambia that his heart was buried. Plymouth Brethren Frederick Stanley Arnot spent 18 months (1882-1884) trying to establish a mission station in the land before moving on. François Coillard, a Frenchman serving with the Paris Evangelical Missionary Society, established the first lasting missionary effort in 1885. Before the 19th century ended, representatives of the Dutch Reformed (1889), Free Church of Scotland (1889), Roman Catholic (1898), and Primitive Methodists (1899) had all established works in the nation. While Christian mission got off to a late start in Zambia, progress was rapid. By the middle of the 20th century, representatives from nearly every major branch of Christianity and the major sub-Christian groups established a presence in Zambia.2 One begins to understand the success of Christian mission work when current demographic statistics are compared to another nation.

  • The Language Strategy in the Zambian Educational System from 1924 to 2014
    International Journal of Language and Literature June 2016, Vol. 4, No. 1, pp. 54-59 ISSN: 2334-234X (Print), 2334-2358 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). 2015. All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/ijll.v4n1a7 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/ijll.v4n1a7 The Language Strategy in the Zambian Educational System from 1924 to 2014 Gerald M. Chishiba (PhD)1 & Peter C. Manchishi (PhD)2 Abstract Language policies within the Zambian education system have shifted in focus over the years. Two main schools of thought have dominated the debate regarding the language of instruction for Zambian schools. One school of thought favors the use of English as the language of instruction while the other camp supports the use of local languages for instruction of core subjects. This paper reviews language policies and language policy documents for Zambia dating from the pre-colonial era to the present-day democratic environment Introduction The Country known as Zambia today was previously called Northern Rhodesia. It is a landlocked country situated in Southern Africa. The size of the territory is 752,000 square kilometers; about the size of France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Switzerland combined. Its neighbors are: DR Congo to the North and North West, Tanzania to the North East, Malawi to the East, Mozambique to the South East, Zimbabwe to the south, Botswana and Namibia to the South West and Angola to the West. Northern Rhodesia was a protectorate formed by the amalgamation of the protectorates of North-Western Rhodesia and North-Eastern Rhodesia.

    Arnot reminded Lewanika that the words Fred Stanley Arnot were not man’s words but God’s. Eventually the king relented and allowed him to Frederick Stanley Arnot was born in preach the Gospel. Where did Arnot derive Glasgow, Scotland, on September 12, 1858. his love for souls and this great truth – that For a number of years, his family lived close a mere slave could be saved and in Heaven to the David Livingston family in near-by forever? Hamilton. This experience made a deep and lasting impression on young Arnot, who The verse God used to reach Arnot himself from an early age developed an interest in sheds light on that question: it was John the continent where his “hero” was a 3:16. Arnot was saved as a boy. He and a missionary and explorer. Arnot spent a lot friend had taken fruit from a neighbor’s of time at the Livingstone home looking at garden. From an upstairs window, his the explorer’s various maps and artifacts in friend’s older brother saw them and called the attic and, as a boy, he determined to go them thieves.

HAWKINS, 17, PATERNOSTER ROW, E.C. ; AND 36, BAKER STREET, PORTMAN SQUARE, W. PREFACE. AFTER a stay of seven years in Africa Mr. F. S. Arnot came to England for six months. This brief period has been occupied with much correspondence, travelling, giving addresses, seeing to the enlargement of his work, etc., so that he could not find time to write an account of his African experiences. To meet, however, the wishes of many enquiring friends he has pre- pared this volume by making use of diaries and letters originally sent to the members of his family (chiefly written to his mother), supplementary information being added. The simple and homely style of these pages is thus accounted for. The faith in which he was, as a child, carefully nurtured by his parents is shown by the undesigned references to scripture interwoven with the narrative. As his years increased he learned to tread for himself the path of faith, the fruits of which are seen in his life.
