The Most Rev. Dr. M. Ezra Sargunam Memorial Lecture was held with great devotion and respect at Allahabad Bible Seminary to remember and celebrate the life, ministry, and legacy of Father Bishop Ezra Sargunam — a great servant of God, visionary leader, and missionary bishop of the Evangelical Church of India.

In the second session, led by Rev. Vivek Mathews, Rev. Dr. Amit Thomas gave a powerful lecture on the theme “Father Bishop M. Ezra Sargunam: A Man after God’s own Heart – A Missionary, Visionary, and Liberation Theologian.” He spoke about Bishop Sargunam’s missionary heart, his social concern, and his lifelong commitment to uplifting the poor, Dalits, tribals, and minorities.

Students also took part in group discussions on topics like “Contemporary Challenges in Church Planting” and “The Anti-Conversion Bill,” showing great interest and concern for the church’s mission today.

The program concluded with a prayer led by Rev. Dr. V. Baby Sigamony.

📚 Faculty and Student Seminar at ABS 🌿

On 2nd September 2025, Allahabad Bible Seminary organized a Faculty and Student Seminar on the topic “Natural Imagery and Ethics of Sufficiency: Reading Matthew 6:25–34 Through Indigenous Mizo Eyes.”

The session was moderated by Mr. Pamreishang Vashum, Faculty of ABS, and the paper was presented by Dr. Lian Muan Kham Suante, Faculty member of ABS.

Dr. Suante shared deep insights on how the natural imagery in Matthew 6:25–34 can be understood from an Indigenous Mizo perspective, highlighting the values of simplicity, contentment, and harmony with creation. The presentation encouraged everyone to reflect on the importance of living with sufficiency rather than excess, as taught by Jesus.

The seminar was enriching and thought-provoking, giving both faculty and students an opportunity to explore the connection between biblical teaching and indigenous wisdom.

🙏 We thank God for this meaningful learning experience and for the continued growth of our academic and spiritual community at ABS.
