Name of Parish: St John's in the City Presbyterian Church
Name of individuals: St John's Myanmar Group
Name of Project: St John's Partnership with the Presbyterian Church of Myanmar
Description of Project: Over the last few years St John's through the partnership between the PCANZ and PCM has supported projects through the Rice Bowl Fund. It has also engaged in questions about missiology and what it means to belong to a Universal Church; a faith community around the world that seeks to be involved in God's Mission. St John's has come to learn by sending teams to Myanmar through the Global Mission Office that as much as we think the PCM needs us, we need them. To do what God has called us to do in our own context we need the support, encouragement and even challenge from other faith communities.
