Indonesia is the fourth of the most populous nations in the world behind China, India, and United States. Based on Worldometer elaboration of the most recent United Nations information, the current population of Indonesia is 276,596,273 people as of Sunday, July 26, 2021. One of the most concentrated populated islands in the world is Java island. In addition to its population, Indonesia is also enriched with its diversity. Greetz, for instance, speaks of its diversity, “There are over three hundred different ethnic groups in Indonesia, each with its own cultural identity, and more than two hundred and fifty distinct languages are spoken . . . nearly all the important world religions are represented, in addition to a wide range of indigenous ones” (Geertz, 1963, 24). Then, Soekarno’s as the first president of Indonesia established Pancasila as Indonesian’s ideology and foundational theory to embrace the diversity in Indonesia (bhinneka tunggal ika). Therefore, this article argues that Pancasila promotes a covenantal pluralism in Indonesia. To achieve this goal, this research will briefly use a historical approach.

After the independence of Syria and Lebanon Protestant missionary work in the Middle East changed dramatically. The women missionaries who worked in the service of the ACO had to come to terms with new realities such as the social and political turmoil of decolonisation, missiological shifts, and partnership agreements with the local churches. Drawing on written memoirs and oral history sources, this article explores their female agency and leadership in a changing context. It also analyses the perception of these missionaries by local agents.

Introduction to collection of papers by group of scholars and ACO missionaries brought together to discuss the developments within the ACO over the past hundred years during a conference that was organised by Dr Wilbert van Saane of Haigazian University (Beirut) in January 2021. I will briefly summarise what strikes me as characteristic of the ACO on the basis of these articles, and conclude with a discussion of how this may contribute to further reflection in Mission Studies and World Christianity

Paul Berron was a singular missionary, a missionary ‘in between’ cultures and nations. He lived and worked not only between his European roots and the field of mission he organised in Syria and Lebanon, but also between two European countries, France and Germany, then involved in a harsh conflict. His experience as an Alsatian and his Christian commitment enabled him to sympathise with the fate of the Armenian survivors of the genocide of 1915. He maintained close links with Christians in the Netherlands, Switzerland, and other nations, involving them in the work of the emerging Action Chrétienne en Orient. To him, mission was not only a work in distant countries, but began at home, especially among newcomers to Europe. In his writings he reflected on nationalism, culture, providence and the church, developing a unique and early expression of ecumenical missiology.
