收到消息,將有一個關於信徒的社會參與之會議在9月19-20舉行:

Change is coming. Change is happening. Change is taking root. Tall, sturdy majestic oak trees were once small and seemingly insignificant acorns. Mighty oaks from little acorns grow.

We also believe this is true with respect to social change. .

This is a conference about the foundations for social justice and global transformation. It is a one and half day event about little things having a sizeable impact. It is about the things that

make a difference each and every day.

Why Everything Must Change is about creating dialogue where a conversation already exists. It is about stimulating a deeper understanding of what it means to be locally and globally engaged.

As Margaret Mead once said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world. Indeed it’s the only thing that ever has.”

Take part in the conversation. Become a part of the solution.

We hope to see you in September of 2008.

如無意外,我將會參加。也鼓勵所有看我網誌的弟兄姊妹認真考慮參加。(若你有興趣,請你留個口信吧!)

  1. Samuel

    Which speaker are you interested in?

  2. Actually I read books by some of them, but never heard them speak — McLaren, Toycen, Cavey, Shepherd & Earle. I think it would be a rare opportunity (for me at least).

  3. Samuel, thanks for the “tips” on Kruger. I watch his interview on Perichoresis, it is very interesting how he is able to bring out the trinitarian relationship and make such profound implication on human life. Wow, this gives me yet another reason to go!!

    Are you planning to go too?

    BTW, Kruger was a student of JB Torrance, brother of TF Torrance.

  4. Hilda

    Too bad that Canaan Fellowship is organizing a Family Day event on Sept 20 and I cannot join :(

  5. And so I heard. Hopefully there would be other opportunities in the future.

    Anybody else interested?
