Communion & Fellowship at The Round-Table

Communion & Fellowship through Modern Technology…

The Round-Table Communion and Bible Discussion ministry has been a part of the UNTCI Fellowship for many years. In its infancy, it broke ground using a text messaging group through our website and was only available to members.

These days, thanking God for modern technology, we live stream video in real time directly from “Home Office” to all of the world. All one has to do now is come to our website www.untci.org on any mobile devise or computer.

The intent remains the same, to promote fellowship, the sharing of Christ Jesus among His family here, and to edify and encourage one another for another week in service to Him in His Kingdom.

The invitation is what is changing. We invite all of you to come and participate with us in Holy Communion (bring your own elements) and stay and listen to the discussion. Take it in and see if it doesn’t left you in some way. When it does, then participate through UNTCI’s Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/thruntci/during the discussion through our Engage Pastor, Arnold Staton who is monitoring the discussion there. If you really like what you experience at The Round-Table, invite your congregation, friends, family, group to share communion with you and us, and join in the discussion.

If you can’t join us on line live, TECU makes every session available as a recording to share or download primarily through the campus Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/the.promise.untci.campus/ but, also through the Seminary’s Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/tecu.alumni

This is a ministry of the United New Testament Church, Int. designed specifically for the Fellowship here and all those whom they serve in the name of Christ Jesus. We encourage all of you to “come and see” and to “share” with everyone who would benefit.

Commemorating Ambedkar: The Role of Dalit Intellectuals

Anand Teltumbde

Mahatma Gandhi once observed that Dr Ambedkar would never let history ignore him.

For nearly a decade after his death, history did try ignoring him. There was virtually no memorial for him until his son, Yashwantrao Ambedkar, had taken a march from Mhow to Mumbai collecting small change from poor Dalits along the route and with that money built a small stupa-like structure over…

  Typhoo today organized a “Better Products. Better Practices. Better World.”  round table in Mumbai following closely on the heels of the launch of its globally certified teas, India’s first environmentally sustainable teas to be marketed across the country.

Organised in collaboration with Rainforest Alliance, the round table brought out the need to create awareness and understanding of how consumers in India can use their purchasing power to support their environmental sustainability concerns.

Subrata Mukerji, Business Head of Typhoo India and Dominique Gangneux, Vice President, Markets Transformation, Rainforest Alliance shared their views on the need to service the growing community of socially conscious consumers and nurture all consumers towards understanding the social impact of their buying behavior.

The Indian arm of the over 100 year old iconic British brand which is the 2nd largest tea manufacturer by volume in the UK, hopes to herald an era of responsible food marketing in the country. The group of prominent people drawn from a varied mix of backgrounds, professions and industries who participated in the discussions said that the consumers need to know how to differentiate brands at the point of purchase through clearly visible sustainability seals on product packaging as a guarantee that the goods and services s/he is purchasing are produced responsibly.

Emphasizing the role of brands, private companies and the consumers in building a sustainable future, the Round Table threw up three contentious issues – was there a demand among Indian consumers for brands to have a broader purpose than its product offering; was it primarily the responsibility of the brand to push sustainability sourced products to consumers, or is the responsibility for consumers to pull brands in the direction of sustainable and responsible sourcing and  What opportunity does responsible sourcing present to brands to position themselves in the Indian market, to innovate and deepen their engagement with consumers, helping to build loyalty and brand equity.

Subrata Mukherji, Business Head of Typhoo’s Indian operations said, “While we announce the start of our plan to offer certified teas pan India, we seek to spark a debate on the connection between Climate, Community, Consumption and Consumers. Its an important connection for all involved to understand and will make for Better products, Better Practices by every company and ultimately for a Better World. It is for this reason that Typhoo has adopted the frog!.”
