A notable highlight was the participation of the Church of Bangladesh. The Moderator of the Church of Bangladesh, The Most Reverend Samuel Sunil Mankhin, was elected to the Board of Directors of the Council for World Mission, making him the first -ever Bangladeshi to hold this significant position. This election marks a historic moment, showcasing the growing influence and contribution of the Church of Bangladesh within the global mission community.
Please keep The Most Reverend Samuel Sunil Mankhin in your earnest prayers so that he can fulfill this important role with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The Church of Bangladesh is proud of this great international achievement of the Moderator.
The Church of Bangladesh has introduced UMOJA to integrate the church and its community responding to the need of the people more effectively. It is expected that UMOJA would help the congregation to be aware about their resources and understand that God has given a lot to meet their needs. The concept is to encourage all to work and contribute together to the needs of people and to various issues of the church and society. Church of Bangladesh has been trying to be self-supported and it is expected that UMOJA may strengthen that process.
