7 FUTURE PLANS Our travels throughout the 17th Episcopal District, has revealed that though the Episcopal District is land rich, it remains cash poor. As a result, we have established the Seventeenth Episcopal Economic Development (S.E.E.D) Program, that would leverage the wealth from the land, bringing about economic stability for the Episcopal District Other Future Plans are: 1. Expansion of Agricultural Projects in the Southeast Zambia Annual Conference and throughout the District 2. Developing Mining Enterprises in the Southwest and Zambezi Annual Conferences 3. Providing Medical and Retirement Benefits for the salaried servants of the 17th Episcopal District 4. Provide Scholarships for PK'S, Youth and Young Adults and for Clergy and Lay 5.

An Annual Board of Christian Education that dealt specifically with Evangelism, provided training to all components of the Episcopal District. Our Annual Planning Meeting Forum set the stage for comprehensive and deliberate preparation, the tasks ensuing in the 17th Episcopal District. We have traveled over two hundred and fifty thousand miles (250) "to the moon and back" to cover the territory that makes up the 17th Episcopal District - Congo DR, Congo Brazzaville, Burundi, Rwanda, Kenya and Zambia.
