Launching of Dreams

Dreams: Where do Biblical, Zambian and Western Approaches Meet?

The first book published by FENZA was officially launched on Friday 15^th March in FENZA Hall. Tens of people attended the launching ceremony. Among the attendants were the Archbishop of Lusaka, Telephone Mpundu; the Rector of St Dominic Major Seminary, Fr. Denis P. Phiri; the M.Afr General Assistant, Fr. Peter Welsh and some visitors from Germany.

In his review, Fr. Denis Phiri – who was the external reviewer – succinctly and eloquently stressed that the book rightly reflects on dreams, a banal and yet puzzling, indicative and educative human experience. In this respect, he endorsed the book as a useful reading for all. Then, the authors of the book Gotthard Rosner, Bernhard Udelhoven and Patrick Mumbi, one after the other explained briefly the themes that the book touches.

To combine the practical with pleasure, all the attendants were invited to convivial refreshments after the ceremony. Meanwhile, copies of the new book were sold and went like hot cakes. All in all, the first book of FENZA was launched in simplicity but with great enthusiasm.

During the questions/comments session, Fr. Justin Matepa, the National Pastoral Coordinator remarked that the book was timely, as the issue of dreams has become a burning pastoral concern today. So, it is the hope of FENZA that Dreams will be of assistance in shedding light on questions about dreams and hence help in clarifying our understanding of dreams. Romaric Bationo, M.Afr
