Pastoring a Growing Network
After graduation from AMBS in 2005, Pastor Yin Hongtao returned to China and worked with North American Mennonites who were connecting with the Chinese church and working with an educational exchange program, Mennonite Partners in China. When that program ended in 2020, Pastor Yin continued to bring together church leaders and congregations who were interested in Anabaptist teaching. He sees himself as a conference pastor to this group of church leaders. He travels to visit, encourage, train, and find ways to help strengthen Anabaptist teaching in Asia. Pastor Yin also sees himself as a global Anabaptist, and as such cares about the church in all places. He has some words for us to think about as Mennonites in Canada as he has observed and worked with us for than 20 years.
