This is a short version of the report prepared in response to the request made on 7th March 2003 by the Chaplaincy Committee to produce a written progress report of the At Your Word, Lord program in our Chaplaincy.
A summary of the activities of At Your Word, Lord is outlined below.
As you may recall, the Gheez-Rite Chaplaincy formed At Your Word, Lord (AYWL) committee in response to the diocesan call to launch this program.
The AYWL committee that was set up last year in turn formed a Core Community comprising nine members.
The Chaplaincy Committee was asked to convene by the Coordinator and discussions were held regarding the program and how it, will be conducted in the Chaplaincy.
On 7th September 2003, a general meeting for the congregation was held in the community centre. Father Ephrem gave a detailed explanation of what the program is about and the Coordinator, described what technicalities are involved in conducting the program. A question and answer session then followed.
The Core Community together with Father Ephrem worked out a plan on how to conduct a Mission Sunday. As a result a Mission Sunday was organized and conducted successfully on Sunday 21th September 2003.
On the official launch of AYWL at Wembly Arena, Friday 26th September 2003, 19 members of the congregation and our two priests, Father Kidane and Father Ephrem attended.
GOD's peace and blessing be with you ALL. Yikun Selame WeSenay Le kul'kmu::
