Publisher's Synopsis
Missionaries stay indoors, pious Christians kneel in front of televisions and sanitizers replace the Holy Water!!! Many things we thought impossible have become the new normal due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As people change their plans, they discover that they must also let go part of their lifestyle and many of their popular beliefs. Some find the experience overwhelming and others eye-opening.This bulletin, on the one hand gives voice to our numerous pains, confusions, and anxieties and on the other hand attempts to make this pandemic a steppingstone and a springboard for a better future. We have three sections: Roots, Vision and Spotlight.When you face a new challenge like banking through a mobile device or buying your first sanitizer, you seek advice from someone who has already done it. Our humanity has seen major crises. As we are going through the present pandemic, we look at the history to see how people lived challenging times and what we can learn from their experiences. Through these articles, we go through a number of challenges in history and see all that we have learnt over the years.
