This ethnography examines the disaster relief work of the Mennonite Cen tral Committee (MCC) in Aceh, Indonesia, following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. MCC’s work is informed by the theologies and historical experiences of the North American Anabaptist-Mennonite tradition. An intentional focus of mcc’s work was a substantive interfaith encounter between MCC workers, all of whom identified as Christian, and Acehnese Muslims. Through an examination of interpersonal relationships, organizational partnerships, and materiality, I trace the ambiguities and transformative potential within these interactions. Encounters are not simply the unfurling of predetermined scripts, but rather dynamic spaces of negotiation. Focusing on encounters counteracts tendencies to reify and essentialize religious disaster relief.

印度尼西亚亚齐的门诺派救灾和不同信仰间的相遇

本民族志考察了 2004 年印度洋海啸之后,印度尼西亚亚齐的门诺派中央委员会 (MCC) 的救灾工作。MCC 的工作借鉴了北美再洗礼派-门诺派传统的神学和历史经验。mcc 工作的一个有意关注的焦点是 MCC 工人与亚齐穆斯林之间的实质性跨宗教接触,他们都被认定为基督徒。通过对人际关系、组织伙伴关系和重要性的考察,我追溯了这些互动中的模糊性和变革潜力。相遇不仅仅是预定脚本的展开,而是动态的谈判空间。专注于遭遇会抵消将宗教救灾具体化和本质化的趋势。
