Mission in India

I have just been reading Kathy Pinsents latest blog, where she is teaching in Ooty south India as a CMS mission partner. Her first impressions remind me of how our encounter India team had a similar reaction to what we encountered. Kathy on visiting St Stephen's church in Ooty says: "The service would have felt familiar to anyone living in Britain a hundred years ago." For a response to this it is interesting to read an email from Sunil (an Indian Christian) to Jonny Baker regarding his blogings on the question: is Christianity a foreign religion?   He says: "My family have been Anglican for over a 150 years. All my friends, whether Christian, or non-Christian speak English, listen to rock. What is indigenous? "
