COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FOR REVITALISING RURAL AND URBAN CENTRES
Indeed it is my honor to present my humble paper on the Indian context of Community Development. Thanks to Dasom Church of the Presbyterian Church of Korea, especially to the Pastors Rev.Oh young Mi and Rev.Jang Chang Woen who are indeed concerned about the poor and the needy in their difficult circumstances. Their ministry to the Migrant workers is remarkably salutary in the context of South Korea.
Basically I am a Pastor working in the Presbyterian Church of Korea as Ecumenical Co worker deputed by the Church of South India and sponsored by the Association of Protestant Churches and Missions in Southwest Germany (EMS). I am involved in the Ministry for the Migrants, along with Rev.Jang Chang Weon of Osan Migrant Workers Cultural Centre.
India is a vast multi cultural, multi religious and multi linguistic country with 28 states of different languages. So this paper only can present bird’s eye view of community development. I tried to present the revitalizing factors of rural communities and intermediary urban centers.
