Orthodox Christian dialogue with Bayore cultureAkunda, Athanasius Amos M. 06 1900 (has links)
Orthodox Christianity came to the Banyore people of
western Kenya in 1942. The Banyore are Bantu speaking
people whose language belongs to the Luhya group of
languages. The Banyore live near the Uganda border; they
are thought to be related to the famous Uganda Kingdom of
Bunyoro Kitara. The first Christian missionaries among the
Banyore were Protestants who came from South Africa in
1905. . The Orthodox faith reached Bunyore in 1942,
through a Kenyan missionary from central Kenya, Bishop
George (Arthur) Gathuna, and Fr Obadiah from Uganda.
The point of note here is that the first Orthodox Christian
missionaries to introduce the Orthodox Christian faith to the
Banyore people were Kenyans. I shall examine the relation
between Orthodox Christianity and Banyore culture, and
show how Orthodox Christianity, in dialogue with the
Banyore people, became indigenised in Bunyore culture.
Thus Orthodox Christians in Bunyore do not see Orthodoxy
as something foreign, but as something that has become
part of their own culture. / Christian Spirituality, Church History & Missiology / D.Th. (Missiology)
