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".

ReFRESH @ Sabbath School

Sabbath School was organised by the Sabbath School Superintendant, Naolah Pitia. We were blessed by several student contributions and the Lighthouse Singers also shared in their music ministry. We were also introduced to a couple of visitors who also joined the Advance Muscle Team which went ahead to prepare the campsite and to make the 'lovo' for Sabbath. In this photo is Sevuloni Ratumaiyale and his visitor, Nitin Sharma, Clayton Kuma(Church Treasurer), TL Joe Talemaitoga and Josh Tuvuki (Sevu's 2nd visitor).

    Our 2 visitors (Nitin and Josh) were embraced and blended into the camp atmosphere very well. Thanks to them both for being part of the Advance Party, going ahead to set up the camp-site, make our lovo and even being part of the Return Crew, taking our hired camp equipment back to Suva. Your help was a blessing to us.
