A shared setting for Church life

The Iringa mission-centre description locates the centre at Kindamali and identifies churches, a baptistery, the episcopal residence, clergy and student accommodation, study spaces and a library. It presents the site as a place where pastoral organisation and the formation of clergy and catechists meet the worshipping life of the Church.

The centre’s churches, monastery and polyclinic serve worship, monastic life, formation and healthcare within the wider mission.

Their common life includes prayer, work, meals and practical service in surrounding communities. The source records building work continuing at the time of its description.
