Huduma ya Elimu ya Kidini<\/h4>\n\n

Elimu ya kidini imekuwa huduma ya umma tangu zamani. Baada ya Pentekoste, wanafunzi wa Yesu wakawa mitume; wale waliokuwa wanafunzi wake wakawa walimu na waelimishaji wakuu wa kidini wa kanisa la mwanzo. Marafiki wa karne ya kumi na saba walisafiri katika huduma, wakishiriki imani inayochipuka na kuendeleza mazoea. Ubunifu wa shule ya Siku ya Kwanza wa karne ya kumi na tisa ulisogeza uumbaji nje ya nyumbani, ambapo ibada ya familia ilikuwa ujifunzaji wa uzoefu, na kuweka elimu ya kidini katika jamii ya umma ya mkutano. Marafiki wanaotoka nje ya chumba cha mkutano wakati jamii ya watu wazima iko katika ibada ili kuwahudumia vizazi vijana ni wahudumu wa umma. <\/p>\n\n

Watoto na vijana wetu si kazi zinazoendelea ili kutusaidia kufikia mahali pengine katika siku zijazo ambapo ni bora zaidi. Uwepo wao sasa hivi huunda fursa ya uumbaji ambayo inaweza kuunda mustakabali, na ukweli huu unapaswa kuwa sehemu ya ushuhuda wetu leo. Ninatamani wasiwasi kuhusu vizazi vijana kushonwa katika maslahi na huduma zetu zote, na kuwepo msaada mkubwa zaidi kwa Marafiki walioitwa kwa huduma ya elimu ya kidini. <\/p>\n\n

Tunapoandika kuhusu Wakwekeri na masomo ya Biblia, wapi majadiliano kuhusu jinsi ya kuchunguza hadithi hizi na watoto? Tunapozungumza kuhusu kuwafikia na kuendeleza utambulisho wa Kikwekeri, tunawazingatia watoto? Tunaposhiriki kazi yetu kwa ajili ya amani, haki, na ushuhuda duniani, tunawajumuishaje watoto katika kufundisha kuhusu mambo ya zamani na kuwakaribisha kushiriki leo? Elimu ya kidini inashikilia haya yote: kuchunguza maandiko matakatifu; kuelewa mambo ya zamani ili kuishi katika sasa na siku zijazo; na kujifunza kwa uzoefu kuhusu imani na mazoea. Ni kufundisha na kuandamana, maudhui na ulezi wa kiroho. <\/p>\n\n

Ilinichukua muda mrefu kuita elimu ya kidini huduma yangu. Ufundishaji ulikuwa kazi yangu niliyochagua. Mapema katika kazi hiyo, nilitengeneza kozi ya Ukwekeri kwa shule ya kati katika shule za Marafiki. Wanafunzi kutoka asili tofauti za kidini walishiriki maisha yao ya kiroho\u2014ikiwa ni pamoja na maswali yao mengi\u2014na kuwasha udadisi wangu kuhusu uumbaji wa kiroho. Baada ya watoto wangu kuzaliwa, udadisi huu ukawa lazima, pamoja na kuhusika katika elimu ya kidini katika mkutano wetu. Nilipokuwa nikisafiri kati ya Marafiki katika huduma ya elimu ya kidini, kitu kilibadilika. Nilianza kuona kwamba njia hii haikuwa matokeo ya kuwa mwalimu bali mahali Mungu aliponikuita. <\/p>\n\n

Kusikiliza pamoja na watoto wangu na watoto katika mkutano wangu, kuwa msimulizi wa Godly Play, kuendeleza hadithi za Faith & Play, na kuanzisha pamoja Quaker Religious Education Collaborative zilikuwa makutano ya pedagojia na theolojia ambayo yaliniita kuchunguza na kushiriki jinsi tunavyolea maisha ya kiroho ya watoto. Utambulisho wangu kama mwalimu uliendelea, lakini lengo langu ni kulea maisha ya kiroho na uumbaji wa kidini. Ni ya vitendo katika upeo wake, lakini Roho inaipatia umbo. <\/p>\n\n

Kuhudhuria chuo cha dini kulikuwa ufunguzi mwingine. Elimu ya kidini kama mada ilikuwa kiungo dhaifu zaidi katika masomo yangu ya chuo cha dini\u2014hii si jambo la ajabu\u2014lakini ilikuwa katika jamii hiyo kwamba njia chini ya miguu yangu ikawa imara zaidi. Licha ya wasiwasi wangu kuhusu kutokuwa na sababu ya kazi wazi kama wenzangu wapastor na machapleni, nilipokelewa na kuheshimiwa na wanafunzi wenzangu. <\/p>\n\n

Wakwekeri waliniuliza: ”Kwa nini Mkwekeri angeingia chuo cha dini?” Wanafunzi wenzangu wa United Church of Christ, Unitarian, Presbyterian, Baptist, na Lutheran, hata hivyo, walipokea mtazamo wangu wa Kikwekeri. Ningeinua mkono wangu darasani na mtu angesema kwa mwalimu, ”Atazungumza kuhusu watoto!” Profesa alishiriki nami utambuzi wake mwenyewe kwamba yeye ni ”mwalimu wa kichungaji” (badala ya ”mhudumu anayefundisha”), na sehemu nyingine ya njia ikaingia mahali kwangu. <\/p>\n\n

Nimebarikiwa kusaidiwa na kuongozwa na waelekezi ambao walikuwa wabunifu wa mitaala ya elimu ya kidini, wafanyakazi wa mashirika ya Kikwekeri, na wenzangu katika ufundishaji na huduma. Wanawakilisha aina zote za watu kutoka matawi tofauti ya Ukwekeri. Ni kauli ya kawaida kwamba elimu ya kidini ni kazi ya mama na walimu waliostaafu (kawaida wanawake), na mara nyingi, ni ukweli kwamba watu ambao ni wazazi wanaulizwa ”kufanya programu ya watoto” kwa ajili ya watoto wao wenyewe. Watu wanaofanya kazi ya uzazi pia wanahitaji maisha yao ya kiroho kuleliwa. Kwa kuvutia, katika miaka mitatu iliyopita, kumekuwa na ongezeko la wanaume wanaohudhuria mafunzo ya Faith & Play\/Godly Play ninayotoa. Mshiriki hivi karibuni alitafakari kwamba pamoja na kujifunza kwake, sehemu ya uzoefu wa mafunzo iliyokuwa muhimu zaidi kwake ilikuwa umakini kwa ustawi wake wa kiroho: kama mtu binafsi ambaye ni mzazi lakini si mzazi tu. <\/p>\n\n

Leo, hizi ni nafasi ambapo ninashiriki huduma hii mara nyingi zaidi: na watu wazima, kuwezesha warsha, na mafunzo kwa Marafiki (na imani nyingine) ambayo yanachunguza jinsi tunavyosaidia maisha ya kiroho ya vijana. Katika nafasi hizo, kufundisha na kutoa huduma ya kichungaji mara nyingi hukutana. Kuna uandamanaji katika darasa lolote, na wakati wa mafunzo ya Godly Play na Faith & Play hasa, ninakuwa nikisikiliza kila wakati kwa usawa kati ya mahitaji ya watu binafsi na kikundi, kama vile mhudumu anavyofanya katika jamii yoyote ya imani. <\/p>\n\n

Marafiki walioitwa kwa huduma ya elimu ya kidini wanahitaji njia za kuchunguza kama kutumikia katika eneo hili ni huduma yao. Ninaposema kwa kikundi cha Marafiki wanaosaidia programu za elimu ya kidini katika mikutano yao, ”Huduma yako ni huduma,” ninaweza kuhisi kitu kinabadilika kwao. <\/p>\n\n

Mkutano wangu wa ndani ulirekodi dakika ya huduma ya kidini kwangu ambayo inajumuisha kutaja vipawa. Waliandika ”Vipawa vya ufundishaji na huduma ya kichungaji ambavyo Melinda analeta katika kazi hii ni vipawa ambavyo amepewa na Roho,” na kusema mkutano umeshuhudia ”ukuaji wa vipawa vyake na uaminifu wake.” Uthibitisho unahimiza uchunguzi wa kina zaidi wa mahali ninapoitwa na kukiri wajibu wa usimamizi wa huduma. Mkutano unaweza pia kuunda ”dakika ya huduma ya kidini” kwa kikundi cha watu wanaohudumia programu ya watoto wao. Wazo (liliazimwa na kubinafsishwa kutoka Mkutano wa Albany [N.Y.]) ni kwamba ikiwa uko ”mbali” na ibada kuwa katika nafasi ya elimu ya kidini, unatoa huduma na unapaswa kusaidiwa. <\/p>\n\n

Marafiki wanajali kuhusu kuandaa watu kwa huduma na ushuhuda: warsha za uongozi, maandalizi na msaada kwa uhamasishaji na kazi ya haki za kijamii, na nafasi za ushirikiano kushughulikia mabadiliko ya tabianchi na pia ubaguzi wa rangi vyote vipo. Tunawezaje kupanua na kuimarisha msaada kwa waelimishaji wa kidini katika mikutano yetu? <\/p>\n\n

Hivi karibuni, Mkutano wa Kila Mwaka wa Philadelphia ulitoa mkusanyiko wa siku nzima, wa umri wote uliolenga elimu ya kidini unaoitwa ”Kujifunza kwa Maisha.” Mada zilihusisha kuimarisha ibada, kuunganisha vijana katika maisha ya mkutano, ibada ya vizazi vyote, na kujenga ujuzi wa huduma. Quaker Religious Education Collaborative, shirika pekee la Marafiki linalojitoa kwa mada hii, linatoa rasilimali (maktaba ya mtandaoni na habari za kila mwezi za kielektroniki) na Duara za Mazungumzo (vikundi vya majadiliano ya bure, vya mtandaoni) kusaidia uumbaji wa kiroho wa maisha yote katika umri wote. Warsha za Playing in the Light zinazotolewa na Faith & Play Stories ni fursa za kujifunza jinsi ya kuwezesha mbinu ya elimu ya kidini na kuchunguza katika jamii ya mazoezi jinsi tunavyolea uumbaji wa kiroho na msaada kwa familia katika mikutano yetu. <\/p>\n\n

Kuna fursa pana zaidi za ushirikiano, pia. Baada ya kujifunza kutoka uzoefu katika mkutano wangu, ninapendekeza pia kwamba kamati za elimu ya kidini na huduma na ushauri za mkutano zikutane pamoja mara kadhaa kwa mwaka. Huduma ya kichungaji ya watoto\u2014ambayo inaanza na huduma ya kichungaji kwa walezi wao wakuu\u2014inaweza kushikiliwa na Marafiki katika kamati hizi pamoja. Tunapotenga kamati na maeneo yao ya wajibu na lengo, tunazuia uwezekano wa ushirikiano na ufunguzi mpya. Kupanga ibada ya vizazi vyote si kazi ya kamati ya watoto tu bali pia kamati ya ibada na huduma. Kamati za mali zinaweza kusaidia kuunda nafasi zilizotayarishwa kwa watoto; amani na masuala ya kijamii zinaweza kupanga ushuhuda wa vizazi vingi. <\/p>\n\n

”Unahisije Nuru ndani yako?” Mtoto aliuliza hivi karibuni wakati wa kipindi cha kustaajabu baada ya uwasilishaji wa hadithi ya Faith & Play katika shule ya Marafiki. Baada ya kukiri kwamba ilikuwa swali kubwa na kwamba hakuna jibu moja, nalistaajabu nao kama wamewahi kuhisi upendo wenye nguvu kiasi kwamba walilazimika kumkumbatia mtu? Walikuwa wamefanya hivyo, na kwa mfano huo, tuliendelea. Kwangu mimi, ninahisi uwepo wa Roho ninapokuwa katika mtiririko wa kusikilizana na kushiriki ambao ni ufundishaji. Hutokea kuketi katika duara na watoto na kustaajabu kuhusu hadithi. Hutokea katika duara la watu wazima wakati wa kujifunza jinsi ya kushiriki hadithi hizo na kuunda jamii ya kiroho na watoto. <\/p>\n\n

Elimu ya kidini na ulezi wa vijana katika jamii zetu za mkutano ni huduma ambayo mara nyingi hupuuzwa. Kuweka mahitaji ya watoto na familia zao katikati ni muhimu kwa sasa na siku zijazo za jamii za imani, na mahitaji ya familia yanabadilika. Je, kushughulika na aina ya ukaribishaji wa kweli wa watoto uliofanywa na Yesu na wengine kunaweza kusaidia Marafiki kuachia kutokuwa na uhakika kuhusu siku zijazo? Je, inawezekana kwamba milango ya mabadiliko itafunguka tunapokumbatia mazoea ya mabadiliko ya kuwa jamii ya ibada ya umri wote? Je, kama wale walioitwa kuandamana watoto na vijana wetu kupitia programu za elimu ya kidini wangeshikiliwa katika huduma ya kina ya jamii ya mkutano: kutaja vipawa vyao, kuimarisha huduma yao, na kuinua huduma yao kama iliyoongozwa na Roho? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
