Ecumenical Engagement Resurrected: The Demise and Rebirth of the National Council of Churches, Singapore

Thomas Harvey

Oxford Centre for Mission Studies, UK

This article examines the history of the National Council of Churches, Singapore. In particular it considers the ways in which the role and nature of ecumenical engagement in Singapore transformed as the impetus for ecclesial unity, social and political engagement shifted from a project and concern of foreign missionaries to that of Singaporean church leaders. Further, it examines the ecclesial, social and political implications as ecumenical activity becomes grounded in a non-western setting.

Key Words: Church and State • global Christianity • ecumenism • ethics • Singapore
