The Church in Africa will never walk alone, Maryknoll missionary, theologian, professor, and communication expert , Fr Joseph G. Healey speaks on the renewal and reform of the Church, Part 1

At 84 and after 56 years as a priest, American Maryknoll priest, missionary, theologian, and communication expert, Joseph G. Healey exudes a freshness of perspectives, a depth of knowledge, and an arresting humility that are both compelling and inspirational. After more than 50 years of  pastoral work in Africa, he carries the institutional memory of the post-Vatican II Church, and theology in Africa. He is considered the father of small Christian communities in Africa and one of the pioneers of African narrative theology. In this first part of our dialogue with  Mwanajumuiya (Member of Small Christian Community) as he likes to be called, he shares with us his love for Africa, his enduring passion and commitment for the renewal and reform of the Church and for grassroots evangelization in inclusive African communities of faith. Fr Healey is very proud of AMECEA's Social Communications Department, which he pioneered in the early days of his priesthood and looks back in time in this episode. He leaves us with a very hopeful message that Africa and the world will never walk alone because the God of our ancestors is always with us.
