  • Church of South India Karimnagar Diocese a Story of Transformation
    Karimnagar Diocese 133 years and Beyond: Church of South India Karimnagar Diocese A Story of Transformation (1879-2012) The Wesleyan Methodist Missionaries from England began working since 1879 in the Districts of Hyderabad, Medak, Nizamabad, Karimnagar and Nalgonda. As a result of their mission work Churches were established along with Schools and Hospitals. After the formation of Church of South India in year 1947, Karimnagar and Nalgonda areas from Medak were annexed to the Dornakal Diocese. There was a small village, by name ‘Gulshanabad’, about 85 kilometres from Hyderabad in the erstwhile ‘Nizam’s Dominion’ in the Telangana region of todaýs Andhra Pradesh. According to one tradition, it was a village where flowers were grown on the banks of the rivulet Pasuperu for the rulers of that time. It was perhaps a typical Muslim village with a few people from other communities. The old mosque on top of the hill, and the existence of no other major temple in the village, is an indication to this tradition. The name ‘Gulshanabad’ means ‘a place of flowers’. With the coming of the Methodist missionaries, notably Charles Walker Posnett in 1896, the Story of Gulshanabad to Medak began. William Burgess, a British Methodist missionary from Madras, with Benjamin Wesley, an Indian evangelist, came to Hyderabad in 1879. A year later came Benjamin Pratt. This trio laid the foundations for the Church in Secunderabad and Hyderabad, although British chaplaincies for their military existed long before. The pictures of William Burgess and Benjamin Pratt are on display in the CSI Wesley Church, Clock Tower, and Secunderabad.

  • Dalit Theology and Indian Christian History in Dialogue: Constructive and Practical Possibilities
    religions Article Dalit Theology and Indian Christian History in Dialogue: Constructive and Practical Possibilities Andrew Ronnevik Department of Religion, Baylor University, Waco, TX 76706, USA; andrew_ronnevik1@baylor.edu Abstract: In this article, I consider how an integration of Dalit theology and Indian Christian history could help Dalit theologians in their efforts to connect more deeply with the lived realities of today’s Dalit Christians. Drawing from the foundational work of such scholars as James Massey and John C. B. Webster, I argue for and begin a deeper and more comprehensive Dalit reading and theological analysis of the history of Christianity and mission in India. My explorations—touching on India’s Thomas/Syrian, Catholic, Protestant, and Pentecostal traditions—reveal the persistence and complexity of caste oppression throughout Christian history in India, and they simultaneously draw attention to over-looked, empowering, and liberative resources that are bound to Dalit Christians lives, both past and present. More broadly, I suggest that historians and theologians in a variety of contexts—not just in India—can benefit from blurring the lines between their disciplines. Keywords: Dalit theology; history of Indian Christianity; caste; liberation 1. Introduction In the early 1980s, Christian scholars in India began to articulate a new form of Citation: Ronnevik, Andrew. 2021. theology, one tethered to the lives of a particular group of Indian people. Related to libera- Dalit Theology and Indian Christian tion theology, postcolonialism, and Subaltern Studies, Dalit theology concentrates on the History in Dialogue: Constructive voices, experiences, and aspirations of India’s so-called “untouchables”, who constitute the and Practical Possibilities.

  • Diocese of Connor and the Rt Rev Alan Abernethy
    Diocese of Armagh Diocesan Cycle of Prayer 2017 (incorporating Anglican Cycle of Prayer) Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Once again, The Armagh Diocesan Cycle of Prayer for 2017 is presented in a similar format to previous years. It seems that although we retain the same familiar format, many of the names change, representing the changing life and ministries within our diocese. We welcome those who have joined us as clergy and readers, and wish God’s blessing to those who have retired or left for pastures new. This year also sees several changes in parish groupings, also reflected in this cycle of prayer. I would like to thank our Diocesan Communications Officer, Jonathan Hull, for his updated clergy lists on the diocesan website, and for hosting this information online. I have also included Holy Days on the Sunday on which they occur. Those that occur during the week are shown in brackets on the Sunday during which week they occur. Included in this edition are days through Holy Week, Ascension-tide, and throughout Advent and Christmas. The prayers for the Anglican Communion are adapted from ‘The Anglican Cycle of Prayer 2017’. I have included selected information that I feel may inform our prayers. Due to the constant changes in posts held throughout the world-wide church, almost any publication can be out of date even before it is published. The posts held by individuals mentioned in this publication are correct as of published date.
