CURRENT ANNOUNCEMENTS
Thriving Immigrant Church Initiative (TICI)
Posted February 11, 2023
Prof. Peter Cha of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School (TEDS) is now accepting applications for the second cohort of TICI, which will last for two years (2024-25). Participants of the first initiative include the Rev. Nathan Hieb of Monmouth Community Christian Church and the Rev. Paul Shen of Chinese Christian Church of NJ. Both pastors and churches have benefitted greatly by their participation in the program. Nathan's thoughts of the TICI program is outlined in this following paragraph.
TICI has benefitted my church by strengthening the relationships between our first and second generations. Our participation in TICI has given our leaders an opportunity to reflect on cultural issues in our church, some that uniquely equip and bless our church and others that cause frustration among our different generations and cultures. A particularly useful activity was our first assignment, which was to conduct listening sessions among different generation groups in our church. What emerged was a picture of our strengths and weaknesses, many of which were unspoken or inadequately acknowledged up to this point. Because this was part of a larger initiative, and because we are experiencing TICI with a cohort of eleven other churches, we had a greater sense of freedom and empowerment to discuss, and seek solutions for, some of our cultural issues that previously appeared intractable. I highly recommend TICI, and I'm available to answer questions that any churches have about this experience. (I'm writing this after our first year in TICI. During our second year, we'll focus on improving our outreach beyond our dominant ethnicities within our local community).
Anyone wishing to ask Nathan any questions about the program can contact him via this EMAIL.
Paul adds that (1) only medium to large size churches should participate in the program and (2) only if the church as two or three congregations that want to develop more unity with each other. If the Immigrant First Generation Pastor/Elder does not want to invest their time into giving equal voice and political power to their second-generation EM Pastor, then they should not participate.
Anyone wishing to ask Paul any questions about the program can contact him via this EMAIL.
