PUBLISHER'S NOTE The second edition of IMAGES needs a word of introduction. The Division mid-year committee that met in Trivandrum felt that significant landmarks, major events, and personalities who have shaped our work ought to be documented and therefore, the Oriental Watchman Publishing House was given this historical project to review God's providential leading of His people in Southern Asia Division for this period, 1990-1995. The preliminary pages condition the reader's mind culturally and exposes the multi-functional levels of our organization pictorially. It also helps the reader to look at the church as a Global Movement and at the same time maintain its national identity. This gives us a deeper sense of belonging and unity to the church universal. The reader is urged to view it from this perspective. It is a call to widen our horizon beyond our national boundaries and to deepen our awareness of our common heritage and mission. The President's introductory statement gives an overview of the positive develOpments duriOg this period. The highlights of this period is summarized from the point of chroriology and importance. The Union President's review is a comprehensive outline of the work done during this quinquennium. They are illustrated and represent the input received from the unions. Any omissions or inclusions must be viewed from this angle. This section also includes the major schools and churches that are represented by these unions. We have included condensed reports of the Division Departmental directors for the period under study. We have several special features to make this book interesting and challenging. These ideas, viewpoints, perspectives, worldviews, reviews suggested are from professors, doctors, teachers, pastors, administrators and lay-persons. These ideas do not necessarily represent the official voice of the church.However, they are written for our kind consideration. We hope these special features can stimulate our thinking and prepare us to face the challenges that are ahead of us. An indepth statistical analysis is part of the financial review of the period. Significant graphs and charts reflect the trends within the organization. While statistics deal with the positive trends, the cartoons help us to capture the negative trends within. We hope the membership of the church will appreciate the spirit in which these cartoons are done. The primary intention of these caricatures is to help us to be self critical. We hope it will motivate us to return to the original blueprint given by God. We trust this volume has captured the spirit and the times of this historical period, 1990-1995. We believe that this _73 71 al/ experience of God's people will inspire us to move forward and fulfil the mission of the church in this generation. Amen. 8 PRESIDENT'S INTRODUCTION As we review the work of God in this field since the 1990 General Conference session, the foremost thought that rises in my mind is that of deep gratitude to our Heavenly Father for His guiding and protecting hand over His work. When we consider the progress, the church has made and God's leadership over the work that has enabled us to be His instruments in the onward march of His church, we are deeply grateful to our Heavenly Father. If one is to be candid in reviewing the work for the last four years, we must confess that there has been both success and failure, progress and stagnancy. Our failures and possibly even setbacks are an indication that we as human beings have not responded and committed ourselves as completely to the Lord and to His leadership as we should have. Nevertheless, it is well for us to look at the progress that has been made and that should constrain us to a deeper commitment to the cause of God. Jac CAerian 9 EDITOR'S PERSPECTIVE This quinquennium is not merely historical, but remarkable in many ways. It is historical because this period coincides with three significant dates: 1991, 1993 and 1994; the Platinum year for SMC; the Centenary year of the Southern Asia Church and 150th year of the Church globally. Spicer Memorial College celebrated it's 75th year in 1991. It has been the force behind preparing workers to carry forward the mission of the church. The leadership of the church is predominantly from the graduates of this premier educational institution. More than that it has upgraded itself in being affiliated to Andrews University.

    India Smart City Profile City: Solapur State: Maharashtra Category: Business & Industrial Centre, Tier 2 Solapur is a tier-two city in the south-east of Maharashtra, and the administrative headquarters of Solapur district. It shares a border with Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, and has therefore attracted a large migrant population from across southern India. Solapur is recorded to have the highest number of sugar factories in India, and also leads in ‘beedi’ production within the state. The city used to be an important centre for cotton textile manufacturing until recently and was the first to set up a waste-to-energy electricity plant in Maharashtra. Solapur is well connected by road to other important cities in the country and has a basic airport that mostly remains unused at present. 1.
