Guangdong Union Theological Seminary’s teachers and students ushered in a new semester.

According to the requirement of pandemic prevention and control in the religious field, the seminary students were required to present their nucleic acid test reports when returning to school.

All teachers and students participated in the first national flag-raising ceremony of the new semester on February 22. They moved to the lecture hall after the ceremony to attend the opening ceremony, according to the seminary.

In the ceremony, Dr. Yu Liang, the deputy provost of the seminary, gave a sermon with the title of I Will Send You as Well. He encouraged all the students to be healthy and courageous to serve and move forward with gratitude. The opening ceremony was ended with the blessing of Pastor Xu Jieping, the president of the seminary.

Formerly known as Canton Union Theological College founded in 1914, Guangdong Union Theological Seminary recruits undergraduate students, with a floor area of 10,000 square meters (2.47 acres).
