Speaker
Sam Ngugi, Laura Sanlon and Bruce Rossington
Sam Ngugi is a Kenyan based in Cambridge, UK working with Kenyan diaspora churches to explore their missional motivations and strategy. He is particularly interested in the capacity, motivation and strategy of these churches to become missionally engaged with other ethnic communities.
Laura Sanlon has been researching mainly African diaspora churches in the Republic of Ireland and their relationship to the wider Christian community. She is asking whether Irish churches need to become truly intercultural.
Bruce Rossington worked in Africa for 15 years as a theological educator and Bible translation consultant. He is a linguist from Bristol whose research is in the area of churches moving from a multi-cultural experience to a truly intercultural ministry.
