dbo:abstract
  • The Pasundan Christian Church (Indonesian: Gereja Kristen Pasundan - GKP) was officially established in Indonesia on 14 November 1934. It has 51 congregations and 33,000 members. It is a member of the World Communion of Reformed Churches (WCRC). Whilst Indonesia was predominantly a Muslim country, the early Christian church in Indonesia was founded by Dutch missionaries, in the western part of Java island in 1863. The missionaries took a very antithetic attitude toward Islam and the Sundanese culture. The progress was very slow. Meanwhile, a Dutch layman collected some converts using less orthodox methods, with the forms of the Javanese magical learning. In 1885, these two streams united, and in 1934, when it had 4,000 members, a presbyterian synod was formed. In 1942, several hardships occurred, and lasted to the fifties because of the Islamic revolts. The church survived, and consolidated. It now runs several schools and hospitals. (en)
