Partners in Mission
The PCT General Assembly maintains close
partner relations with a large number of individual church denominations
worldwide, and international mission bodies such as the Council for World
Mission (CWM) and Mission 21. These valuable partnerships help facilitate the
provision and sharing of missionary personnel and other resources for respective
mission tasks, mission consultations, leadership training and formation.
One of the significant joys the recent two
decades has been to witness the PCT development and shift from being a primarily
“receiving” global partner to a very active “sending” partner in terms of
peoples and resources.
In addition to sending missionary personnel
to serve with international partners the PCT also has pastors working among
congregations and communities of overseas Taiwanese in several countries.
PCT young people, students, women,
indigenous, lay and clergy are encouraged to participate in various exchanges,
short term mission programme and study opportunities to widen their vision and
understanding of mission and the ecumenical church family. |
