You may recall that in the October 2001issue of Ministerial Formation (No. 95), we announced the “Jour- ney of Hope in Africa Continued: A Critical Evaluation of Theological Education and Ecumenical Formation” (p.73-81). We have had good responses from people and institutions involved in theo- logical education and ecumenical formation in Africa, including a few partners in the North. We are now in the process of preparing for the Conference to take place in Johannesburg, South Af- rica, 16-23rd September 2002. The critical evaluation was based on decisions made at the WCC eighth (jubilee) assembly, held in Harare, Zimbabwe, December 1998, when Africans and Africans in Diaspora covenanted with God (see page…) to make a difference in Africa by embarking on the journey of hope. The gath- ered global church promised to accompany African churches and the people of Africa on this journey. The Harare assembly affirmed the dream of Africa, expressed by African participants in an earlier event in Johannesburg, May 1997, that stated: We are proud in seeing a vision of the journey of hope of African churches for the development of the continent for the twenty-first century. We are determined to work out this vision that promises life with dignity for the African people…This is a vision that v calls us to work together and creatively to be in solidarity with one another, to accompany those among us with burdens too heavy to carry alone; v compels us to work towards the elimination of the barriers and walls that divide and enslave us; v provides us with instruments to reconcile broken relationships and heal wounds inflicted by violent ways of resolving misunderstandings and conflict; v can be realized if Africans agree to work together in the spirit of pan-Africanism, and man- age their human and natural resources responsibly and ethically, together and in partnership with one another and with nature.1 The staff that initiated the critical evaluation on theological education and ecumenical formation in Africa strongly believes that we must involve the teaching, training and capacity building in- struments of the churches, if this dream and vision will indeed see the light of the day. In this issue, we begin to accompany the churches in Africa by having a glance of what is happening in these institutions and to discover the major concerns and challenges that theological educators and lay leadership trainers encounter in their various ministries. Some of the papers are written by indi- viduals while others worked in groups or carried out interviews. To give a more comprehensive picture, we recommend that you read The Ecumenical Review, Vol. 53, Number 3, July 2001, (Geneva: WCC Publications), on “Transforming Ecumenism in Africa in the 21st Century”. Sev- eral of these challenges have been highlighted in previous conferences and consultations, how- ever, we hope that through the spirit of Harare Covenant, we will discover strategies that will force us to make a difference. We would like to hear from you, your experiences and perspectives on what has worked best for you in your struggle to be relevant, contextual, evangelical and ecumenical as well as achieving academic excellence in our world today. We also hope that this special issue will be inspirational to other regions as they seek to work together in theological education and ecumenical formation. Welcome to the Journey of Hope in Africa!

We acknowledge that African leaders have committed crimes against their own kith and kin in the past and at present times. We repent now of our sins against each other and beseech you O God to heal our land and deliver us from all evil. Our hearts are yearning to be freed from despair so that we may endure in faith, because of God’s promise to restore our dignity and fulfil all our dreams. May God grant us the wisdom and knowledge

PREFACE Despite extremes of temperature alternating with bouts of enthusiastic precipitation, Chicago’s architecture and ambience provided a reliably stunning backdrop for ATLA’s sixty- fifth Annual Conference in the summer of 2011. The association’s members took full advantage of this opportunity to share learning, camaraderie, and laughter with their colleagues. Members of Chicago Area Theological Library Association (CATLA) and Association of Chicago Theological Schools (ACTS) proved themselves to be worthy and accommodating hosts. From campus tours, fine dining, and baseball to river cruises, entertainment, and museums—they were available to help every attendee find activities to take delight in while visiting the Windy City. This official record of conference events and activities represents the work of the many presenters, facilitators, and others who are responsible for the breadth of material compiled within these pages. ATLA is grateful for their contributions. I would also like to thank ATLA staff, who helped put together this publication, most particularly Brenda Bailey-Hainer, Denise McFarlin, Zhongwen Jin, and Barbara Kemmis.
