Extractions: Thank you for your commitment to participate with World Mission Centre in God's agenda to bring the Gospel to bear on all nations. The following describes the advances made in Tanzania, a country identified in '93 - '95 with ten least unreached people groups: PROJECT FOCUS' OBJECTIVES At GCOWE 97, Pretoria, South Africa, under the sponsorship of World Mission Centre (WMC), church leaders challenged WMC to develop a strategy to plant churches in the people groups listed in "The 100 Least Reached People Groups of Southern Africa–It Can Be Done." These groups were identified by WMC's research conducted '93-'95. As a result, Project Focus was launched with the objective to plant at least one church in each people group by 31 December 2000 and multiple churches by 2005 –at least 1 church for every 3,000 people. Other objectives were to train national missionaries and "to provoke, enthuse, inspire and release" national churches in these Southern African countries to assume the responsibility to plant these churches. PROJECT FOCUS IN TANZANIA In July/August, I had the joy of leading a WMC team to Tanzania (Lydia accompanied me) where Project Focus, under the oversight of WMC's representative, a retired Anglican minister, is in full operation reaching the ten least reached people groups in that country. WMC's specific objectives were to check on the progress of Project Focus (How many churches have been planted since the inception of the strategy? Where should special effort be focused to reach people with the Gospel?), provide in-service training touching on some of the critical issues faced in church planting in the context of non-biblical religious concepts, and to encourage and challenge church leaders to press on with church planting and even go beyond their own borders.
Extractions: Fadhili Mshana Staffs come in different materials and forms and most examples in Africa are made of wood and are most commonly used for walking, though some staffs serve as ritual items and as symbols of authority. For example, chiefs, diviners, and linguists own staffs connected with their obligations. This is not to say that such types of staffs are used on a daily basis. Rather, these items are employed during special events and for performing specific tasks. These include chiefs who display them to legitimize their title, and to represent their realm and power. Healers and diviners also utilize staffs in their activities, as do linguists, orators, and leaders of associations (fig.1). To cite an example, in Ghana, major Ashanti chiefs have an okyeame or public spokesman who holds his staff as he speaks to underscore his authority and message. While the woodcarver was the main creator of staffs, the chief or title-holder could ask other artisans like a smith to work with the carver. Indeed, a combined effort perhaps depended on the materials that a staff demanded. If, for instance, metal such as iron and copper was needed, then specialists in this field of metallurgy were called upon to contribute their expertise. In another example, a bead-worker may be involved together with a woodcarver in the creation process if a staff was to be decorated with beads. Considering the crucial functions of staffs, it would seem that after the creation process is completed, other actions may be taken upon the objects. For example, a practitioner would be given the task of manipulating a staff with view to consecrate it, thereafter the object is given to the title person.

African Art and Architecture I. Introduction African Art and Architecture , the art and architecture of the peoples of the African continent, from prehistoric times to the 21st century. II. Origins and Sources Art in Africa has found expression in a range of media from architecture, sculpture, and pottery, to music, dance, textiles, body adornment, and epic poetry. Each of these has its own complex and in many cases unresearched local history of stylistic development. griots, or bards. The combination of these various sources, together with inferences drawn from late 19th- and 20th-century data, has allowed scholars to identify what appear to be some of the major building blocks of a history of art in each of the regions of sub-Saharan Africa, but it is clear that many questions remain to be answered. An African response to the earliest European presence in West Africa is apparent in the depiction of European merchants and soldiers in the cast brass plaques made in the 16th century in Benin, as well as the finely carved ivory salt cellars and hunting horns brought back by sailors from Kongo, Benin, and the coast of Sierra Leone. Increasing European involvement on the African continent over the following centuries has had a far-reaching impact that continues to be felt today. It would, however, be a denial of the creative agency of African artistic responses to changing circumstances to see this impact as wholly negative.
