The St Francis Xavier Pastoral Centre was begun sometime around the year 2003 by the then Pioneer Bishop of Mamfe, Emeritus Bishop Francis Teke Lysinge. After many years of gradual development of the structures, the Centre was finally fit for use around the year 2010. Since then, the centre hosted mostly Diocesan events like meetings, seminars and conferences. Within the years 2014 onwards, the second residential Bishop, His Lordship Bishop Andrew Fuanya Nkea gave a significant face lift to the Pastoral Centre and widened its scope of operation. This major transformation saw the birth of a complete Conference/Banquet Hall, Restauration or Catering Service, Decoration Service, Hostels’ Service and Chapel. This upliftment brought the Pastoral Centre to the level of a “Five Star Hotel” open to the public as a significant contribution of the Diocese of Mamfe to the Community’s lodging and restauration plight.

This Policy handbook, therefore, presents the modus operandi of the four components of the Pastoral Centre which is an Empire of its own with an internal independent operational system. It spells out the rules and regulations of these various components.

Every Component has a Manager who takes care of the affairs of the component. Though inter related, each component runs itself.
