Chung So-han, a first-year Master of Divinity student: The Angels in White Who Accompanied Me on My Journey to Heaven—I Offer My Life as a Sacrifice to God! Thanks be to God, after I became a Christian in 1985, I gradually grew within the Christian nurses' fellowship at Bo Ai Hospital. Although I had to work shifts and often couldn't attend church services, several sisters in the fellowship guided and cared for me, accompanying me on my journey to heaven. During holidays, they would invite me to retreat camps to teach me how to draw near to God and read His word. The love these sisters showed me revealed their commitment to God; in them, I saw the image of Christ—giving without expecting anything in return. They showed me the beautiful life of someone who follows God and inspired me to resolve to follow Him. Later, they each took on different ministry roles; some became missionaries, others entered seminary for further training. At that time, I truly envied their "carefree" lives, but I lacked the complete faith to follow them on that blessed path….

Wong Pak-ming, a first-year Master of Divinity student (M.Div. 1), finally took the first step. "The Lord came and stood there, as he had called three times before, 'Samuel, Samuel!' And Samuel answered, 'Speak, for your servant is listening!'" (1 Samuel 3:10). Many years ago, I heard a pastor recount Samuel's experience in a sermon. At the time, I thought: If God called me, I would also willingly and gladly say, "Here I am, for your servant is listening!" Years later, I still have a deep impression of that thought. Perhaps from that moment on, God placed a "I am willing" heart in my life. ...

A Cold Wave, a Warmth Student Union Mission Department received help from Pastor Zheng Junye of the Renewal Society and arranged for nine students to visit inmates at Shek Pik Adult Men's Prison on January 17. A cold wave had just hit Hong Kong that day. After the students took a bus from Tung Chung to Shek Pik, they faced the biting cold wind and walked for more than ten minutes on a slope to reach the heavily guarded Shek Pik Prison. The meeting was divided into morning and afternoon sessions and was attended by more than 40 inmates, most of whom were young people who had not yet believed in the Lord. The following is what one of the seminarians shared:...

Responses from Two Campmates Brother Yun and Sister Yan are a young couple. They attended the experience camp together because the wife was preparing to embark on the road of devotion, and the husband wanted to accompany his wife in the camp and seek God’s will together.

Classroom Experience We divide the campers into groups and arrange for them to enter different classrooms to take classes with theological students. Each camper will have one or two classroom experiences. What exactly do they hear in the classroom? "These two lessons will tell the beginning of the English Reformation through the six legendary marriages of Henry VIII in the 16th century, thereby explaining the origin of the Anglican organization and system." (Teacher Wu Guojie: Church History). ..

Mr. Shun Shaolin, Visiting Assistant Professor of New Testament Scripture: Amos 7:10-17 I think everyone must find it strange that a person who reads the New Testament and studies Paul would actually choose an Old Testament passage when preaching . I did want to talk about Paul at first, but there was a passage that still lingered in my mind for several months. It was Amos 7:10-17. ...

The camp featured two insightful information-sharing sessions: a short talk on the first evening and a morning meeting on the second day. Pastor Lin Guobin's scripture reading: 1 Samuel 16:1-13...

Flesh and grace, one campmate described this "Call to Testimony Sharing Session" as "flesh and grace," and it was one of the most touching sessions. In this sharing session, one of our classmates and two alumni talked about their calling and their experiences in studying theology. 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. ...
