Introduction
CLE was established in 1994 by a group of brothers and sisters who are interested in the Church of China and are burdened with the Gospel ministry to the Chinese people. This cluster of people had already been involved with China through another ministry, Educational Services Exchange with China (ESEC), which was established in 1980. Over a decade of involvement with China provided them first-hand experiences in many facets of Chinese society and the many opportunities for Christian involvement. In realizing the significant growth of the Chinese Church during the 80s and 90s, in recognition of the amazing grace of God in the midst of the Chinese, and in response to the Great Commission, CLE was established to work directly with the Church in China through servanthood ministry. Appeal
letter to Global Chinese Christian Community for Quake Relief chinese only China quake
Relief About the quake in Sichuan China on May 12, 2008,
the destructive force has shaken more than just the ground, the building and
the lost lives. But it also shook the confidence of the million lives and the
faith of the Christian community. Time is too short to get into details. I
would like to ask for your quick action. Let me outline for you the short and
longer plans. The Background Christian
Leadership Exchange (www.cle-china.org) has had good working
relationship with China's Christian community and the State
Administration of Religious Affairs (SARA of China's State Departments). CLE
has chosen to work with SARA because of the long term works ahead. While most
relief organizations (Red Cross, World Vision) are there for acute relief
works, the long term works rest with the Government. (ANOTHER
OPTION TO GIVE IS THROUGH CCC. THE SARA CHANNEL IS USED SO WE CAN DO LONGER
TERM INVOLVEMENT WITH THE QUAKE STRICKEN AREAS).
Strategy One CLE is equipped to receive funds in the
next few weeks. By mid June, leaders from the International Christian
community, key Christian leaders from the US, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and
others will present the donation to SARA. We would like to demonstrate a
sense of Unity that there is only one Church which is the body of Christ. Strategy Two As this email is being written, there is already a plan being executed in Beijing right now. Project "5.12 Post Traumatic Counseling and TIP learning of Children" is underway. This project is to train volunteers to work with children being affected by the disaster. Volunteers are being recruited right now. Psychiatric counseling for volunteers to deal with Post Traumatic Depression will be needed.
Strategy Three This will be a long term rebuilding
project. We would like to continue to work with SARA as a united body of
Christ. Please pray for this matter and give
your support. If you or your organization would like to make a tax deductable
donation, please issue your check to CLE c/o EBAC 3755 13 Ave Oakland, CA 94610
2008 China Forum on Religious Policy February 26-28 Location Divinity
School of Chung Chi College, Chinese University of Hong Kong As you may be aware already,
Secretary Hu Jintao gave a speech on religion on Dec. 19th, 2007. "At the CCP Central Committee
Political Bureau's Second Collective Study, Hu Jintao Stresses the Need To
Comprehensively Implement the Party's Basic Policy on Religious Work and
Actively Do a Good Job in Religious Work Under the New Situation" - Xinhua
headline To read the report in Chinese/English Danny Yu has indicated that he will make a
donation of his most recently published book Breaking Down the Dividing
Wall, a reflection of the past 15 years of CLE's experiences in
interacting with the Chinese government to everyone who will be attending
this symposium.
