Experiencing Seminary Life Camp

  “Experiencing Seminary Life Camp” is held every year for those who are prepared to be equipped in the seminary or who are in search for God’s calling in their lives. It provides an opportunity for participants to know more about the Seminary and the life of a seminary student. Furthermore, they can understand more about God’s will through listening to sermons, quiet meditation, seminary students’ testimonies and praying with fellow group members.

  This year’s camp has just been held from February 27 through 28 and the theme was “Take My Life.” There were 31 participants. We deeply felt that this was a camp filled with God’s grace and wish to share with you a few instances in the camp in this issue.

The space here is limited, so I can only extract small paragraphs from three stories to share with readers. I hope that even though the paragraph is small, it still allows you to see the vastness of God’s grace. ...
