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".

GC 2010 Bulletin 3




Bula Vinaka everyone,
FRIDAY NIGHT

Grace on Mount Moriah - was the title of Randy Roberts sermon on Friday night. Based on Genesis 22, he said that "It was not Abrahams disobedience but his obedience that led him to the greatest extremity of his life". Life is sometimes most difficult when God is "silent". Abraham climbed that mountain in silence - but because of his love and faith in God - in answer to his son's question "where is the lamb?" - he said..God will provide!

The service ended with a powerful rendition of the hymn "Great is thy Faithfulness" The amazing grace of our loving Lord reaches out to us everyday. Check this out on www.takethegift.org.

This was launched at the GC Session. Amazed by HIS Gift of Grace - may you all have a blessed week - and like we have been challenged here in Atlanta - go and Proclaim to all that GOD will provide!

Till next time,
Joe Talemaitoga
