An update from Nairobi*

From Father Michael Kirwen, director of the Maryknoll Institute for African Studies in Nairobi, Kenya:

“MIAS will soon publish the second volume of the ‘Journal of African Cultures and Religion.’ This edition features the field research papers of the students who took the following courses: Gospel and Culture: The African Experience and African Culture: An Overview and African Traditional Religion Interprets the Bible. In these papers, students demonstrate their ability to search out and recognize cultural patterns underpinning the data of their field research, and interrelate the data with lecture and bibliographical materials. The papers are edited and compiled by course, with a brief introduction by the course lecturer. Copies of the journal can be obtained for $5.95 via the website www.africancultures.org.”
