Larger Than Life

It seems that I've underestimated our Social concern groups in my previous postings. Tonight during the service, they mentioned 10 things that they wanted to do. Some includes eradicate poverty, reform the health care system, fight for injustice, combat racism, tackle homelessness issues, etc. Perhaps Kevin Rudd should think of employing them?

They are basically "Larger than life". What I think made them even larger is they claimed that we can do it as long as we unite as a church. Maybe they are belittling the global problems that we have at the moment or their faith is even stronger than Apostle Peter.

The mighty Bu Pyeong Methodist Church in Korea wouldn't even declare to solve any one of the problems mentioned above by themselves nor even thinking to do it by themselves. Even developed countries like USA or Australia dare not. However, CLMC has the "greatness" to make such bold claim. How great thou art!

Bu Pyeong Methodist Church understands the seriousness of the problems and how big the scale of the problems are! Hence, they have been seeking partnership in tackling these issues. They seek partnership from other Annual Conferences, churches & non profit organisations.

For CLMC's Social Concern, what are their plans for the coming years? Will we see CLMC extending or accepting more partnership in ministries soon? Will it be another empty greatness talk or will we finally see some serious commitments to tackle the above 10 matters?
