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".

"Shine on"





A Song written in 1991 by Apimeleki Ratulevu, for the 100th year anniversary of the Seventh Day Adventist Church in Fiji, was sung by the Suvavou Adventist Youth, but was never recorded, nor shot on Video, until 2010, when these very talented young people from Suvavou, Recorded it in less that 4 hours, with Sakeasi Tuni Senibulu (Tai Buda) as sound engineer. Locked in the studio by Joe Talemaitoga, with food and drinks, they had no option but to get it done. Some of the boys weren't yet born when this song came out in 1991, so they came up with the name NEXT GENERATION to call the group put together just for this one song.
