Healthserve VIsit by the Social Action Comm

hi cfers!

In view of all the outreach opportunities that have been shared recently in CF, the Social Action Committee would like to extend another option for your Fac/hall members to
consider in the coming weeks. Basically, we will be going to visit Healthserve,
a Chrisitan NGO that provides free medical healthcare services to the foreign workers
in the area of Geylang.

The trip will be more of an experiential trip for one to realise the work of Christian NGOs even in our country and seeing the need for supporting them. In addition, we will also be given a short orientation of the area and get to know the workers there. It will be definitely an experience that will open the eyes of your members to the diverse range of foreign workers we may not know of in our midst. Yet, it will also reveal to many who go about the various issues that face these workers.

The details of the visit are as follows:

CSCA Annual Lecture Series 2007 coming up this week :)

Heads up for stuff going on this week..

CSCA Annual Lecture Series 2007 Church and Mission in the New Asia: New Gods, New Identities

Date: 10-12 Oct (wed-fri)

Time: 8pm

Venue: MPH Level 1, Trinity Theological College

Many parts of Asia are being rapidly transformed by new technologies, unequal wealth creation and the emergence of religious radicalism. Individual lives and whole societies are being re-configured around new gods and identities. What does following Jesus as Lord mean in such changing contexts? If Christian witness is to be truly Christian, and not a bearer of false gods, our pragmatism and activism need to be shaped by prophetic discernment and godly wisdom

Talk 1: The Postcolonial: Unlearning Colonial Mission
Talk 2: The Postmodern: Shopping for Identities
Talk 3: The Posthuman: Technology as Salvation

Speaker: Dr Vinoth Ramachandra, the secretary for dialogue and social engagement for IFES. He has written several books: Gods that fail: modern idolatry and Christian mission (1996), Faiths in conflict?: Christian integrity in a multicultural world (1999) and The message of mission: the glory of Christ in all time and space (2003)
