  • St. John's Cathedral HIV Education Centre 2016 Report
    St. John’s Cathedral HIV Education Centre 2016 Report Elijah Fung, Centre Manager A NEW VISION FOR TODAY In 2015, St. John’s Cathedral conducted a review of its outreach ministries to ensure that they provide services in line with the current needs of the Hong Kong society. In order to address recommendations that emerged from this review SJHIV Centre staff have met and dialogued with a comprehensive range of stakeholders, donors, supporters and volunteers to fine-tune, reposition and broaden our mission and the services we offer. Given the accumulated expertise and extensive network that the Centre has developed over the last two decades it is felt that we should continue to offer education and support to maligned minority groups within society that are at high risk of HIV infection but also broaden our services to include Life Education to children, youth and parents. Our vision is to provide a Life Education that helps children, young people, and their parents understand how to live healthy and fulfilling lives, respecting the diversity within both our communities and creation. We would appreciate your prayers and support during this transition period as our board and staff discern what is best for our Centre's mission in the years ahead. OUR INVOLVEMENT WITH YOUTH AND COMMUNITY In 2016, in addition to our regular education programmes at schools and within the community, we organized a series of AIDS-related programmes to engage young people all of which were aimed at strengthening and empowering young people with up-dated facts and skills that can enable them to work towards “Zero New HIV Infections, Zero HIV-related Discrimination & Zero AIDS-related Deaths” in society.

In 2017, the National Endowment for Democracy published the Sharp Power: Rising Authoritarian Infuence in the Democratic World, investigating inter- ventions from China and Russia in diferent parts of the world.1 Also, Taiwan scholar Wu Jieh-min advocated the “China Factor” as an analytical framework. The China Factor mainly refers to “the process by which the PRC government utilises capital and related resources to absorb other countries and ‘ofshore districts’ (such as Hong Kong) into its sphere of economic infuence, thereby making them economically de- pendent on China to further facilitate its political infuence.”2 Wu further pointed out that the operation of the China Factor mechanism required the cooperation of political agencies or local collaborators so that the infuence of China could penetrate diferent spheres of politics, economics, social and cultural, making the China Factor be more impactful.

  • HKSKH Church Policy Paper
    香港聖公會 HONG KONG SHENG KUNG HUI 第七屆總議會 The 7th General Synod 香港聖公會教會政策文件 HONG KONG SHENG KUNG HUI CHURCH POLICY PAPER Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Church Policy Paper Preface 1. Since the establishment of Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui (HKSKH) in 1998, the Province has always been committed to God’s ministry in Hong Kong and Macau. Soon the Province will be approaching her twentieth anniversary, this offers us a chance to reflect upon our past, examine our present, and plan for the future through our faith and tradition. We anticipate a dynamic future for our Church: a Church which is faithful and relevant. We aim for the church to be a church serving the Lord faithfully, leading people in seeking the Lord, enabling people in response to God’s calls in their own contexts and to be a blessing for our society in our time. For a better tomorrow, the Provincial Standing Committee of the Sixth General Synod has now prepared a mission statement and related policies for the Seventh General Synod and would like to invite the Synodic members to discuss and adopt the motion. 2. This Church policy paper aims not at solving existing problems, nor is it made to respond to the current issues in Hong Kong. The purpose of drafting the Church policy paper is to serve as a reminder for every member of HKSKH that through probing the fundamental question of what is the purpose of the Church’s existence, we may envision the future of HKSKH. This is done by rediscovering the core values of the church: what it is for and what it is about and then letting the Church just be Church.

  • Standing Committee – Report 2008 162 APPENDIX B SIXTH
    Standing Committee – Report 2008 APPENDIX B SIXTH PROVINCIAL SECRETARIES’ CONFERENCE OF THE ANGLICAN COMMUNION Hong Kong 23 August – 30 August 2007 REPORT TO THE STANDING COMMITTEE OF THE GENERAL SYNOD Status of the Conference The Provincial Secretaries’ Conference is an informal meeting, organised by Provincial Secretaries to assist their professional development and to strengthen bonds within the Anglican Communion. It does not constitute an official organ of the Communion and is not a decision-making body. Aims of the Conference 1. To increase Provincial Secretaries’ understanding of the nature of the Anglican Communion and of the contribution they can make to its life. 2. To help the development of Provincial Secretaries in their role and to increase their knowledge of the different ways in which that role is expressed in different Provinces. 3. To exchange information and experience on issues that face Provincial Secretaries. 4. To learn about the life and concerns of the host Province. Thanks It was a privilege to attend the Provincial Secretaries Conference representing the Church of Ireland on behalf of the Chief Officer Mr Denis Reardon, who was unable to attend. I would like to thank the Standing Committee and the Chief Officer for this opportunity to experience another aspect of the Church of Ireland in the context of the world-wide network of the Anglican Communion. The meeting provided an insight into the life of the Communion through the eyes of key administrators and an opportunity to establish bonds of friendship with colleagues around the globe. Host Province The meeting was hosted by the Province of Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui (The Church of the Province of Hong Kong).
