 CCA@5522 August 2012 CCA Celebrates Ecumenical Thanksgiving service on the 55th Anniversary with Churches in Taiwan
Rt. Rev. Duleep de Chickera, from Sri Lanka, brought greetings to CCA on the occasion of the 55th century and told the Asian Church leaders to use this opportunity to look back and learn from our mistakes, and repent for what should have been but wasnt done with humility. He called for an engagement of churches in 'Selfless engagement' that was willing even to die and bear fruit.
The Church service was enriched by the beautiful singing by the Hakka Presbytery Choir and made colourful by the Ms Dongi and Yushan Seminary students, who sang and danced to indigenous tunes.
The 55th anniversary was marked with a slide show showing the history of CCA for the last 55 years and a few rare photos of an era gone by.....
