SPEAKER: Rev Daniel Tong
DATE: 29 July THU
TIME: 7:30pm to 9:30pm
VENUE: ALBY Events via ZOOM Online
FEE: $10
Many of us wonder whether Chinese who become Christians can continue to observe some of the Chinese traditions and beliefs, or have to forego them entirely! These include practices associated with major Chinese festivals, weddings, funerals, ancestral worship etc.
To please God, while yet maintaining our Chinese heritage, is something all Christians of Chinese ethnicity struggle with. This seminar will present some principles with which we may better hold this tension, and apply the same to festivals like Chinese New Year and Qing Ming, along with various practices associated with these festivals.
