The Convention of Baptist Churches of Northern Circars (CBCNC) is a Christian denomination in north coastal Andhra Pradesh〔(baptistene.info )〕 founded in 1874〔 which was ecclesiastically separated on linguistic basis from the Canadian Baptist Mission founded by Thomas Gabriel along with the Canadian Baptists of Ontario and Quebec. In the present scenario, the Convention of Baptist Churches of Northern Circars is only a namesake association which does not support any of the medical or theological institutions financially but only exercises 'leadership', this in spite of the growth of the Churches to a full level since Independence. In the postcolonial era, the Canadian Baptist Mission was erected into four ecclesiastical societies based on linguistic basis, * among the Kui speaking people, * * Kui Baptist Association,〔(Kui Baptist Association )〕 * among the Odiya speaking people, * * Utkal Baptist Mandali Sammiloni,〔(Utkal Baptist Mandali Sammiloni )〕 * among the Telugu speaking people, * * Convention of Baptist Churches of Northern Circars, * among the Soura speaking people, * * Soura Baptist Association,〔(Soura Baptist Association )〕 From 1947 to 1972, the Convention of Baptist Churches of Northern Circars was managed effortlessly in spite of difficulties. During 1972, crisis brew in the Convention leading to irreparable damage. M. B. Diwakar researched on the crisis with the title, ''An Investigation into the historical antecedents of the crisis in the CBCNC during 1972 to 1974''.〔M. B. Diwakar, 'An Investigation into the historical antecedents of the crisis in the CBCNC during 1972 to 1974'' in ''Thesis Titles'', Board of Theological Education of the Senate of Serampore College, Bangalore, 1991.〕 Due to the crisis, the Churches established by the Canadian Baptist Mission continued to move forward due to the congregational type of structure. However, the central leadership is not in place as there are many fractions of the Convention, each claiming to be the rightful successor and the matter continues to be subjudice.〔2001 (2) ALD 215, 2001 (2) ALT 190. (). 2003 (5) ALD 218 (). 1992 (2) ALT 715 (). 2007 (1) ALD 385 (). 2002 (6) ALD 503 ()〕 In the successive years', the Canadian Baptist Ministries have continued to support the Medical and Theological Ministries through the Hospitals and the Theological institutions. The following are the existing institutions which continue to be financially supported by the Canadian Baptist Ministries as neither the Convention of Baptist Churches of Northern Circars nor the Churches founded by the CBM do not have the vision nor the management skills to support the Mission institutions due to problem of perpetual dependency, * Ministerial * * Andhra Christian Theological College, Secunderabad, Telangana, * * Baptist Theological Seminary, Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, * * Henry Martyn Institute, Hyderabad, Telangana, * * Shanthi Parishodhana Patashala, Rajahmundry, Andhra Pradesh, * Medical, managed by the Council of Christian Hospitals, the medical wing of the CBCNC * * CBM Bethel Hospital, Vuyyuru, Andhra Pradesh, * * CBM Christian Medical Centre, Pithapuram, Andhra Pradesh, * * CBM-Ranipeta Eye Centre, Parlakhemundi, Andhra Pradesh, * * CBM Serango Christian Hospital, Serango, Odisha, * * CBM Star of Hope Hospital, Akiveedu, Andhra Pradesh, * Ministerial and technical * * Eva Rose York Bible Training and Technical School for Women, Tuni, Andhra Pradesh == References == ;Notes ;Further reading * * * * * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Convention of Baptist Churches of Northern Circars」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
