[Anglican Communion News Service] Representatives from 10 countries across Asia have taken part in a consultation affirming a new approach to whole-life transformation for local churches and communities, based on biblical principles and using local assets and talents to help bring about change.
Participants from India, Bangladesh, Nepal, the Philippines, Malaysia, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, and Myanmar, as well as Australia and the U.K., gathered in July to share their experiences and look at next steps.
