Unity in Diversity Conferences
In January, 2010, PaLM formed a task force comprised of ABC (American Born Chinese) and OBC (Overseas Born Chinese) Pastors.
|
The ABC task force members were:
Rev. Howard Chan, PaLM Rev. Ben Lin, Jireh Church Rev. John Ng, PaLM Rev. Albert Wong, Grace Faith Church |
The OBC task force members were:
Rev. Stanley Kwong, Queens Herald Church Rev. Howard Li, Trust in God Baptist Church Rev. Isaac Ngai, Chinese Conservative Baptist Church Rev. Isaiah Tingson, Oversea Chinese Mission |
The task force members made a two-year commitment to work together to strengthen the unity and understanding between ABCs and OBCs. Upon meeting for the first time, the task force agreed to host four conferences over a two year period. The conferences would be called "Unity in Diversity" and would be held each spring and fall in both New York and New Jersey. The presentations from various meetings are provided here for your edification.
