Abstract
Today there are over 90,000 Small Christian Communities (SCCs) in the eight
AMECEA countries of Eastern Africa. Kenya alone has over 35,000 SCCs. The past year has
seen innovations in the development of SCCs in Africa including Highlights of the SCC
Practicum Papers, Case Studies of SCC Involvement in Peacemaking/ Peacebuilding and in
the Kenyan Lenten Campaign 2009 and Expanding the SCC Global Collaborative Website. A
careful assessment of these experiences can help chart new trends in the future of the
Catholic Church in Africa. This can lead to deeper theological reflection especially in the
context of evolving a contemporary African Christian Theology than includes African
Narrative Theology and the Theology of the Church-Family of God in Africa
