\n\n<
strong>Diaspora, Empire and the Gospel - uncovering the minority church in
Europe
In recent decades many millions of people have
come to Europe from all over the world and established minority churches.
Meanwhile ethnic Europeans have migrated within the continent and p
lanted churches which reflect their own culture more than the host culture
. We will be investigating this phenomenon and asking how these
churches navigate between becoming assimilated by the host culture, remai
ning isolated outposts of their culture of origin or endeavour to develop
a 'kingdom' culture that transcends both.
We will a
im to provoke theological reflection on diaspora mission, listen to and le
arn from lived narratives, lead toward an action plan to further deve
lop our understanding and provide tools/outputs to further develop diaspor
a ministry in the future.
Our speakers will include
Tayo Arikawe (Londo
n City Mission), John Baxter Brown(Global Connections),
Usha Reifsnider (Ox
ford Centre for Mission Studies) and Alex Vlasin
(University of Bucharest
