A group of students from the NewCollege Missionary Society, Edinburgh lead by
Mr. Dan Harper are concluding their stay in the United Theological
College. They arrived on
May 30th and will leave today. The group consisting of eight people
were here on a study trip to understand the culture and diversity of India. Their
interests also included cross cultural learning, learning about the Indian
church and the challenges it faces now. The programme included lectures by
faculty members in UTC and resource persons from other fields. The group was
co-ordinated and helped by Dr. Nalini Arles
who arranged several exposure trips to religious places and NGO’s in Bangalore and in CMC, Vellore.
The group was introduced to the
UTC community during chapel service. They have made a donation towards the
support of theological education in the college. The group members are Dan
Harper, Kirsty Harper, Taisie Pennick, Rebecca Blakey, Francesca Castagnetti,
Lauren Massetti, Liam Fraser and Rachel Harrison.
