Welcome

Welcome to the PTEC Blog. We are a multicultural group of mainly young people from across the Pacific who have much in common. Like the children of Israel we move from venue to venue for our worship meetings. Set up in the late 1970's this congregation began with about 10 members and has grown to approximately two hundred members.

Originally known as the University Church, it took on the new branding and identity following plans to build a church where programmes could be expanded to include more vigorous campus ministry activities and pastoral care for students who have left their regional homes across the Pacific to get a qualification. The congregation is currently pastored by Talatala Joe Talemaitoga. He is also the Chaplain for the Adventist Students Association Fiji wide and although the PTEC church takes up much of his time, he also works with students studying at other tertiary institutions across Viti Levu.

PTEC is a youthful, vibrant congregation of South Pacific and Fijian students who are in Suva to study at tertiary institutions, such as the University of the South Pacific, Fiji School of Medicine and Fiji Institute of Technology.

Our mission theme for this year is: "Grow Curious, Grow Together and Grow in God".

Games on the Beach

After lunch everyone just relaxed, played volleyball, swam even though the jellyfish bit every second person that went into the water, the sea was just so irresistible. People got bitten, came ashore squeezed lemon over the bites and returned into the sea. Here again one got reminded of the saying, "no pain, no gain". The GAIN, you ask, it was the "GOOD COMPANY, perfect weather, the inviting sea and the desire to return to assignments and studies fully ReFRESHED.
