Abstract

The author posed a question, 'Is incorporating some of the Wasukuma cultural practices into the Christian liturgical celebration legitimate inculturation, or is it syncretism?' The author responded and asserted that evangelization among the Wasukuma requires an inculturation process which engages dialogue between the gospel and the culture. Through utilization of the practical theology method and qualitative research methods, the author correlated the Christian tradition, theological scholarship, the lived experiences of the people, and his experience in ministry, and proposed a liturgical inculturation of the eucharistic celebration. The author concluded that missionaries should consider the context of various cultures when transmitting the message of Christ, so that the people can understand it more deeply and express it actively in the liturgy and in the various aspects of their faith journey.
