金巴崙長老會源於美國長老會，於十八世紀末在美國一連串的復興運動中，在金巴崙郡的長老會經歷聖靈工作，教會復興、人數增長。因著按牧與教義上的意見與總會不協調下，於一八二九年正式成立金巴崙長老會。本會來華傳道早於十八世紀末開始，在湖南省藉著醫療、教育、佈道三方面作宣教工作。後來得以在中國華南區發揚光大、擴展神國，是源於一個黃金夢！

本堂簡史 一位美國萬國浸信會牧師，於六十年代來香港宣教，租用尖沙咀香港青年會 禮堂作聚會。 之後該牧師再到別的地區宣教，本地的聚會交由弟兄姊妹和一些神學生負責 這個雛形教會。 七六年禮堂租金提升，我們無力担付，考慮解散肢體，讓各自找尋合適教會 聚會。但上帝奇妙引導給一個地方(九龍城侯王道57號二樓)，可以租借在禮 拜日作崇拜之用，其餘日子不能租用，所以團契聚會還是無定向，然而上帝 總有預備及時供應團契聚會地點。 經過一輪漂流、分散式日子，於七七年四月上帝允許我們自置堂址(紅磡馬頭 圍道107號五樓)，約七百呎地方，所有聚會歸回一起，自始弟兄姊妹有了自 己屬靈的家，可以自由運用和發展。 一九八二年正式註冊為 [香港萬國浸信會] 至八五年三月我們又經歷上帝的引導和供應，購買了實用面積約一千七百呎的 地方直到如今。就是 紅磡 差館里41-43號 美安樓 二樓。本堂為獨立堂會，暫 未設有分堂。

BACKGROUND : Christina Noble formally established the Christina Noble Children’s Foundation (CNCF) in 1991 in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) after arriving in Vietnam in 1989 and seeing firsthand the challenges faced by local children living in poverty. Born into the slums of Dublin, Ireland, Christina overcame the death of her mother at an early age and spent her childhood in dire circumstances—ultimately surviving years spent in orphanages and a period of homelessness on the streets of Dublin. Her difficult beginnings fueled her passion for children’s rights, to which she has dedicated her life. Since its inception, CNCF has established over 160 projects providing services to vulnerable children and their families. These projects have directly assisted over 900,000 children and collectively impacted the lives of over one million children and adults. In 1997, Christina extended the work of CNCF into Mongolia. CNCF has grown into a well-established, independent organization and an international partnership of charitable registrations, supported by local governing boards, to disseminate its message worldwide and support its programmatic goals. GOALS : CNCF provides humanitarian assistance to populations in Vietnam and Mongolia that have been profoundly affected by years of poverty and war. To date, over one million children and their families have been impacted by CNCF’s medical, educational, and community development programs. CNCF is dedicated to serving underprivileged children by helping each child maximize his or her life potential. Our programs in Vietnam and Mongolia seek to protect children at risk of economic and sexual exploitation, while ensuring these and other children in need have access to health and psycho-social care, and educational opportunities. Our programs operate within the context of the family and the community whenever possible, and always with love and respect for the dignity of each child as an individual. We also engage in sustainable development initiatives that benefit the families and wider communities of the children we support. Our organization aims to maintain our current programs that have been proven to bring about positive change in the communities served and seek out strategic opportunities for expansion and growth. In addition, we hope that our facilities and programs can continue to serve as models of high-quality, comprehensive social service in the countries in which we operate. CURRENT PROGRAMS : CNCF’s programs in Vietnam and Mongolia help at-risk and underprivileged children and their families by providing access to necessities such as healthcare, education, and community development. Vietnam Programs The Sunshine Social and Medical Centre (SSMC) is the focal point of CNCF’s operations in Vietnam. Located in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), the SSMC is a multi-faceted facility providing medical, nutritional, and educational support to the local community. The SSMC houses a kindergarten and the Sunshine Medical Centre. The Sunshine Medical Centre consists of an Intensive Monitoring Unit, Residential Care Unit, and an Outpatient Clinic that sees 600–1000 visits per month from members of the local community. The Sunshine Home For Boys’ and Sunshine Home For Girls’ provides a safe and nurturing environment for street children and runaways who are suffering or at high risk of starvation, commercial and sexual exploitation, human trafficking and living under a constant threat of violence. The Homes provide psychological and counselling services to help children deal with and process the trauma they have suffered as well as high quality healthcare, education and support to eventually enable them to live independently in the community as well adjusted adults. The Rural Construction program has constructed and equipped more 87 kindergartens, 6 Primary Schools, 4 Medical Stations and Footbridges in HCMC and southern Vietnam providing vital educational opportunities, critically needed health and medical care and day-care to thousands of Vietnam’s poorest children. The Education Scholarship Program provides scholarships to children and young adults whose families are otherwise unable to afford schooling. In 2018, 114 students received scholarships to support their education. The Child Sponsorship Program provides support to approximately 1,000 children per year. With a monthly contribution, sponsors make a significant difference in the life of a child living in poverty by supporting the child’s education and health. The Microfinance Loan Program provides small loans ($150–500 USD) to families in need of capital to help establish, operate, and expand their businesses. In recent years, over 2,000 households have received loans. The Rural Water Supplies Construction project has supplied more than 1,841 deep water wells and water tanks to communities in southern Vietnam since 1998. The project has benefitted thousands of poor families in rural areas by providing clean water solutions. The Bicycle Support Program provides children from extremely poor families with bicycles and safety helmets to facilitate transportation to and from school. In 2018, 145 children received bicycles. The Tay Ninh Residential Centre for Visually Impaired Children is a residential and educational centre, providing visually impaired children with long-term residential care, food, healthcare, education––including formal education, rehabilitation, and life skills training––recreational activities, and vocational training. The Tay Ninh Centre currently houses more than sixty three children and has served more than 1,000 children in its more than fifteen years of operation. Mongolia Programs The Blue Skies Ger Village is a residential care facility for homeless, orphaned, and abandoned children in the Mongolian capital city of Ulaanbaatar. Our village seeks to ensure that the children in its care enjoy a loving and safe environment, receive an education and high-quality healthcare, and retain a close link with Mongolian traditions and customs. The children live in traditional Mongolian gers (tent-like structures) in a protected compound with modern facilities. In 2018, 61 children lived in the Ger Village. The Child Sponsorship Program provides support to approximately 1,000 children per year. With a monthly contribution, sponsors make a significant difference in the life of a child living in poverty by supporting the child’s education and health.

The Mongolia Healthcare Program consists of a clinic/infirmary that provides poor, orphaned, and abandoned children with free professional medical attention and emergency care. In 2018, the Healthcare Programme benefitted 1,403 people. The Blue Skies Day Kindergarten provides care and early education to local children from the impoverished Ger district community, between the ages of two and six. Since its inception in 1998, the Kindergarten has nurtured and educated over 1200 children. The Prison Education Program provides full-time education to children housed in the Boys’ Prison in Mongolia. The curriculum focuses on literacy and basic mathematics as a means to begin the rehabilitation and reintegration process. In 2018, the Prison Education Programme benefitted 130 boys.

The Mission of the CLC derived from its specific vocation as an Ignatian Lay Apostolic Prophetic Community, as expressed in its General Principle and in various defining documents. The Community’s sense of mission translates into specific service “according to the circumstances of time and place” as St. Ignatius expressed it.
