REIMAGINING INDIA - From Colonialism to Contextual Ministry to Persecution: A presentation by Laurence DeWolfe, Wednesday, May 2 at Noon and 7:30 p.m. at Glenview. Admission is free. A freewill offering will be taken in support of the Ecumenical Centre for Homiletic Orientation (ECHO). Early this year Laurence spent a month teaching preaching in Tamil Nadu, Southeast India and Nagaland, Northeast India. Christians in India live in the long shadow of colonialism, and to many other Indians represent that shadow. Indian churches are also engaged in contextual mission and ministry, which inevitably upsets the social order. The Christian minority now shiver under an advancing shadow: the Hindu Nationalism of the Modi Government, anti-Christian laws in several states, and open persecution in many communities. Come at Noon or 7:30 p.m. to learn about our sisters and brothers in India.
