    Luo Family Spirituality
    (Tangaza University College, 1997-02) Oduol, George
    This work is an essay which is to be presented at the Tangaza College, (Theological Centre for Religious), the Constituent College of the Catholic University of Eastern Africa,CUEA, Nairobi, in March 1997, marking the end of a four-year Theological training at the same College. It is a study of the Luo Community of Nyanza Province, Western Kenya, as regards their Family Spirituality, an important area of their religious and spiritual world. In doing this work, I was greatly assisted by the generous selfless co-operation of the people and institutions of higher learning in getting the raw-materials I needed for presenting this work. The assistance I got enabled me to gather rich information from the people I personally interviewed during my field research and also from books which treated the same topic. Therefore,from the information given, I too applied my own personal critiques according to my observation which I considered could justify the claims I put forward and I believe, can make the family image for a better change in the future. For practical reasons, it is not possible to thank all the individuals who, through co-operation and encouragement, helped me to carry out this research; although, the key helpers have been included in the list of informants in the text below. To all of them, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the cooperation, which sometimes, involved personal sacrifices and physical hardships but without which I would have achieved very little.
