The following are his conclusive words: \u201cThe unfolding of the Kungoni activities as a Centre for Culture and Art followed very much my own personal growth. Though inculturation was the ultimate target right from the time of my arrival, the years 1967 to 1970 had to be spent in learning to <span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">speak<\/span>. The period of 1970 to 1976 taught me to<span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\"> think <\/span>in the culture. The period of 1977 to 2000 brought about the possibility of <span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">acting<\/span> in the culture by establishing the Kungoni Centre and its various activities. The period of 2001 to 2014 was blessed with several publications and the need to reflect on the past and on the history of the Centre. Together with a team, I look forward to publishing online the summary of its activities and its major achievements. This is the database mentioned above. As an appendix to this work, the urgent need to show greater concern for Malawi\u2019s environment that is presently at risk. I would very much like to spend my remaining years and energy on browsing over my voluminous notes and do more publishing for further generation. I am presently working on a pre-Christian spirituality of the Chewa. I would also like to spend more time at painting my inner experience of my real home, my only home, Malawi.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><em><span style=\"color:#000000;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mafrsouthernafrica.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/12\/img_6432-honorary-degree-m-copie_modific3a9-1.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6071 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/mafrsouthernafrica.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/12\/img_6432-honorary-degree-m-copie_modific3a9-1.jpg?w=200&#038;resize=200%2C300\" alt=\"IMG_6432 Honorary Degree-m - Copie_modifi\u00e9-1\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mafrsaprovince.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/img_6432-honorary-degree-m-copie_modific3a9-1.jpg?w=493&amp;ssl=1 493w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mafrsaprovince.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/img_6432-honorary-degree-m-copie_modific3a9-1.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>Share WORLD Open University &#8211; Honorary Doctorate Award<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><em><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Upon the authority of the Senatus Academicius through the University Council of Share WORLD Open University, and the nomination and recommendation thereof Fr.
