Abstract
This paper highlights Qes Gudina Tumsa’s efforts in the Kambata/Hadiya region with special bearing at integrating the Kambata Evangelical Church 2 (KEC-2), which had broken away from the Kambata Evangelical Church (KEC) in 1954, into the Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus (EECMY). The KEC-2 attended the annual Conferenceof Ethiopian Evangelical Churches (CEEC) from 1955 to 1961, when the EECMY “Home Mission” with the Kambata Home Mission Program (KHMP) was launched. Qes Gudina’s efforts in the region can be divided into two periods. The first was in 1963 when he tried to integrate the KEC-2 into a synod of the EECMY. As we will see, this approach generated some problems. His second attempt, together with the Finnish Missionary Society (FMS) in 1967-69, was more successful.
