AFE Provincial Chapter

In the dim light the map of Africa which was drawn on the floor of the chapter hall was lit by a series of lights at the border. In it the map of eastern Africa, the geographical area of AFE was highlighted and a Pascal candle was placed at the bottom of the map and many small candles were placed where the houses are situated.

May 26th 2010 Nairobi, Kenya the fifth Provincial Chapter of the Province of Eastern Africa beganwith a hymn to the Holy Spirit followed by the welcome words from the provincial Fr. Joseph Pulikkal after which the Moderator Fr. Gianni Rolandi gave the introductory talk. After the introductory talk the regulations of the chapter were read and passed by the assembly. This was followed by the election of the secretary. From there after a few remarks about the liturgy the whole group moved to the chapel from the chapter hall for a recollection preached by His Lordship Bishop Paul Kariuki in whose house the salesians have a secondary and technical school.
