During this event, the importance of the role of the church as the salt for those around – one that is brave enough to emerge from its plastic wrappings and make an impact to its surroundings without discrimination – was emphasized.  It is the challenge of the church anointed by God in the context of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI) for them to empower His people to be the salt and light of this country that is our beloved Indonesia.
