Orientation
All new students are required to attend an orientation programme at the start of the academic year. The programme, which is jointly organized by the Faculty and Student Council, aims to acquaint students with various aspects of College life, community living and expectations and requirement of a theological student.
I appreciate the spiritual formation activities in TTC and SPH, complementing the classroom education. A great learning point is TTC’s modus operandi which is so distinctly different from the operational mode of the commercial world. TTC’s environment and system is powered by love. My salute to the faculty and administrative staff for carrying out their duties as ministries with Christ’s love, which has left a deep impression on me.
I have been deeply blessed by the spiritual community that theologizes and debates matters of Church and world. I am also grateful for the grace extended from the lecturers that instill confidence for me to venture further in this academic journey.
