Sameer

Sameer is a young CNI presbyter who, thanks to our NMA programme, has just embarked on a targeted scheme to enliven the mission of selected congregations. It includes facilitating mission responses to local needs, the 80 pastorates so far involved have come us with many initiatives, including an anti-trafficking project and 15 women setting up a truck-stop. He has also taken some of the CNI ordinands to defend a village in the anti-POSCO campaign (google it to learn more!) Any Methodist congregation in Britain which would like to link with his exciting work should get in touch with me! Steve

Synod

The flags of 27 dioceses gather for a procession through the streets of Delhi. The aim is to let everyone know the church is in town and not so small after all. In this largely Hindu country perceptions of Christianity are mixed where they exist at all.

Testament to love

Finished in 1653 by the emperor (and 20,000 workers) as a memorial of the love he and his wife shared. Literally breathtaking.

Partners

Smells, sounds and smiles tell me I am back in India. Oblivious to the chaotic driving, Pradip (youth officer) and I catch us on the news. Before some desperately needed sleep. But now the partners meeting begins at cni HQ. Steve

India in London

World Mission Forum welcomed Kasta Dip this morning, the CNI desk officer for Dalit concerns. He spoke of his work among the 70% of Cni's 1.8m members who are dalits and its funding by British Methodists. Steve
