The gathering aims to reflect on the \u201cre-emerging and emerging realities and challenges of the Church in Asia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe faces re-emerging realities and challenges ad extra, in the Asian reality that surrounds her, as well as emerging realities and challenges ad intra, as she turns the page from being a \u2018mission church\u2019 to a \u2018missionary Church,\u2019\u201d read the FABC announcement on its website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The federation has earlier released a prayer for \u201cFABC 50,\u201d hoping that \u201cawareness, interest, and a sense of participation can be created\u201d in Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Church is looking for new ways to continue serving the people and peoples of Asia; let us walk together to reflect, imagine, participate, and rediscover a new way of being a church in Asia,\u201d said Archbishop Joseph Arshad of Islamabad-Rawalpindi, president of the Bishops\u2019 Conference of Pakistan, in a report on Radio Veritas Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FABC is a voluntary association of episcopal conferences in Asia that was established with the approval of the Holy See.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its aim is to foster among its members solidarity and co-responsibility for the welfare of Church and society in Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FABC is currently led by Cardinal Charles Bo of Yangon, Myanmar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
