Asia: Building resilience and hope to weather the storm

Communion Building, LWF member churches, Theology, Climate

Indonesian bishop Tuhoni Telaumbanua knows well what it means to minister in the midst of a storm. He is from Nias island, off the west coast of North Sumatra in the Indian Ocean, a surfers’ paradise but also a place still recovering from the damage wreaked by the 2004 tsunami and a devastating earthquake the following year. He is among the 60 participants at the Asia Church Leadership Conference, leading lay and ordained women and men in reflecting on ways in which the churches have reacted to the most recent upheaval of the COVID-19 pandemic. He noted the many questions that people asked their pastors as the virus struck the Asia region.
