On the occasion of Pentecost, which falls on May 19 this year, a church in Chengdu, Sichuan, will hold a gospel music concert to celebrate the arrival of the Holy Spirit.
At five churches in Guizhou, five practical teaching bases were set up, marking Guizhou Bible School’s explorations of sinicized Christianity in Guizhou.
In May, Rev. Erik Burklin, president of China Partner, along with Rev. Hao Wang, visited Shanghai and Hubei to seek future cooperation and to discuss with local seminary staff.
A seminar was carried out by CCC&TSPM to explore the relationship between Tsu Chen Chao’s theological thought and the sinicization of Christianity in Huzhou, Zhejiang.
Xu Ying believed that the modern exploration of sinicized Christian music involves two main aspects: firstly, creating many Christian music works that reflect Chinese theological thoughts and fit Chinese aesthetic taste in music. Secondly, gospel songs are played with Chinese-style performance techniques.
