On December 19, Zhejiang Theological Seminary held the inauguration of the 41st Student Union and the scholarship awarding conference in the auditorium.
The conference was presided over by Rev. Zheng Rongda, assistant to the president of the seminary and director of the Student Ministry Department. He announced that there were a total of nine members in the 41st Student Union. In their speeches, Cai Dehui, the chairman of the new Student Union, and representatives of various department heads said that as members of the Student Union, they would take over the baton from the previous session and serve the students.
During the scholarship awarding session, Pastor Pan Xingwang, president of the seminary, presented awards to the five students who won the scholarships.
In the final summary speech, Pastor Pan affirmed the service of the members of the previous Student Union, especially expressing gratitude for their efforts during the 40th anniversary of the college and the college evaluation. He congratulated the elected members of the new Student Union and the students who won the scholarships. He also expected that they would learn three abilities during their studies at the college: the ability to transform spiritual cultivation, scripture reading, and prayer into inner life and growth, the ability to transform cultural knowledge and learning into the capability to conduct church pastoral care and management, and the ability to transform theoretical thinking into the action of leading believers.
