Last weekend CPGS had its General Assembly in Paris, France. We thank our member Eclaireuses et Eclaireurs Unionistes de France for hosting us and introducing us to French Protestantism.
The assembly heard the reports by the chairperson and the treasurer and discussed future activities, for example a seminary for exchanging our spiritual and religious programmes.
We’d like to inform you that we’ve received new corporate members from Cameroun (Les Scouts du Cameroun), Cote d’Ivoire (Éclaireuses et Éclaireurs Unionistes de Côte d’Ivoire as regular member, Éclaireuses et Éclaireurs de Côte d’Ivoire as associate member, Fédération Ivoirienne du Scoutisme as Observer), and Hungary (ICHTHÜSZ – Protestant Unity of the Hungarian Scout Association).
The General Assembly has also elected a new committee:
- Annette von Stockhausen (Germany) – Chairperson
- Charles-Olivier Yapi-Melchisédek (Cote d’Ivoire) – Vice-Chairperson
- Nadine Marchand (France) – Treasurer (not in picture)
- Merete Knude (Denmark) – Member
- Nathaniel Likabi (Cameroun) – Member
We are grateful to have been joined in our assembly by Dr. Zuhair Ghunaim from IUMS in the spirit of interreligious friendship within scouting.
