Teaching and Learning to Live in OikoumeneCCA-FMU co-organized with Rev. Edwin EH Kharkongor, seminary principal, three ecumenical lectures at John Roberts Theological Seminary in Mawklot, Shillong, Meghalaya, India on 20 September 2005. More than a hundred students and some elders of the church were present at the lectures. Speaking on "Learning to Live in Oikoumene: Integrating Ecumenism in Theological Education", Hope Antone, executive secretary of CCA-FMU, shared her experiences of learning ecumenism in various ways, gave biblical bases of ecumenism and showed the needed shifts in ecumenical thinking in order to have a wider ecumenism. Anna May Chain, a Bible scholar and principal of Myanmar Institute of Theology, narrated a "Chorus of Voices: Reading the Bible from Many Perspectives." Recognizing that there are many voices right within the Bible, in interpretation, and among the readers today, she highlighted the need to hear the minority voices within, the women's voices, and voices from other cultures and religions Chuleepran Srisoontorn, faculty at McGilvary Faculty of Theology in Chiang Mai, Thailand, spoke on "Pastoral Theoogy from a Global Perspective." Using a case method approach of an HIV/AIDS patient, she highlighted issues in a growing pastoral ministry to victims of the pandemic. These lectures will soon be published in CTC Bulletin. posted by hope on Monday, October 03, 2005 |
