Chinese pastors visit Methodist Centre

SIX DELEGATES from the Shanghai Christian Council (SCC) and the East China Theological Seminary (ECTS) visited the Methodist Centre on May 27, 2011.

They met Bishop Dr Robert Solomon and the Rev Dr Chong Chin Chung, President of the Chinese Annual Conference, and viewed the Methodist Heritage Exhibition on the third floor of the Methodist Centre.

They had been invited by the Singapore Anglican Diocese to visit Singapore to improve relations and for mutual interaction and learning.

The delegation was led by the Rev Xie Bingguo, who is the Chairman of the SCC and the President of the ECTS.

The team’s six-day stay, lasting from May 26 to 31, also covered visits to Trinity Theological College and church-organised social services, as well as dialogue sessions with church leaders.
