“The church belongs to Christ whom we all serve and believe in
The mandate of the church is to serve the people in a holistic manner–spiritually
He encouraged the government to intensify the fight against corruption in society: “The boils need to be burst thoroughly in a systematic way and caution needs to be taken in order to be fair
We support the government in these efforts to rid the country of the corruption in society
but avoid victimizing those who are innocent.” He called for an end to the political impasse in Zanzibar
where results of the October general elections were nullified over malpractices
and new elections are scheduled for March this year

looking up to the hills to find inspiration and encouragement to leave conflict behind and cope with their differences in peaceful ways,” he said in his sermon
Junge thanked the ELCT for its “steadfast commitment” to the Tanganyika Christian Refugee Service
which has cared for hundreds of thousands of refugees from East Africa’s Great Lakes region since 1964
The LWF associate program also works with local communities
empowering them to improve living standards
Junge said today’s challenge of people’s marginalization
the ever-growing gap between the rich and poor
require the public voice and actions of the church at local and global levels
witnessing and serving together matters far beyond the realm of the church,” he emphasized
Bishop Heinrich Bedford-Strohm of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bavaria
