    A Strategy to Enhance Literature Ministry in Yaounde
    (Adventist University of Africa, Theological Seminary, 2014-06) Etta, Stephen
    This research project entitled ‘A Strategy to Enhance Publishing Ministry in Yaoundé’ comes at a time when Yaoundé team of literature evangelists of 65 active members, has suffered significantly drop to less than 10 licensed literature evangelists. As compared to the past, their work is less felt in the Church and their relationship with Church leadership is growing weaker and weaker. This project is designed to first of all determine the causes of this decrease in taskforce then implement a contextualized strategy that can enhance the growth of literature evangelism in the city of Yaoundé through the active involvement of more members. The population considered for the study are all the 32 members of the LEs club in Yaounde and the officials from the Bookshop as well as the director of the printing press. The major objective of this project is to find out what factors have led to this situation through questionnaires, interviews and observations and revert the issue. Prominent amongst our findings, the causes of this setback are lack of quality training, of books capital and of policy compliance.The implementation stage has proposed relevant contextualised solutions among other are the translation of the training resource materials into French, a weekly CFA F 5000 contribution per LE to build book capital, awards and incentives day, and service record reconstitution. A number of pertinent recommendations have been made namely: the printing and sharing to LEs of the translated training materials, the appointment of the assistant publishing director, the bi annual organization of LEs awards and Incentives day and permanent involvement of church’s institutions in literature evangelism
