Street Children in Estonia:
Lighthouse Care Center
Martin [not his real name] came to our
Lighthouse Care Center when he got very hungry.
His mother had left him when he was just a
couple of years old. The boy lived with a mostly
absent father. His father’s girlfriend was an
alcoholic. When the father ended up in prison,
the woman turned to prostitution, and Martin
found himself on the streets of Tallinn, where
he stole, drank, and smoked.

The first Methodist missionaries in Hungary
arrived from Austria and Germany in 1889 to work
among German immigrants. By the beginning of

members, most of them Hungarian. But the church

World War I.

Eastern European Churches in the 21st Century
The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 sent
far-reaching ripples across Asia and Eastern
Europe. Even before Mikhail Gorbachev stepped
down and Boris Yeltsin became Russia’s
democratically elected president, the Communist
regimes of Hungary, Bulgaria, and Czechoslovakia
dissolved under pressure from popular movements
encouraged by the fall of the Berlin Wall in
1989.

A New Quest for Partnership in Mission and Ministry: Global Regional Gatherings
A communion service celebrated with the flesh
and juice of the coconut at the South Pacific
Regional Gathering, held in Tonga in May 2001,
made most participants wipe away tears. This
Eucharist service using the coconut tree as a
symbol of the tree of life was an example of how
the people of the South Pacific contextualized
Christian theology. The celebrant, the Rev.
Valamotu Palu, General Secretary of the Pacific
Conference of Churches, beautifully wove the
story of women and men of the Pacific through
the story of the coconut.
