AGST-BSOP Welcome Fellowship
for The New Program Director, New Faculty and New Students
On November 6, 2025, students organized a Meal Fellowship to welcome our new program director, new professors and new ThM/PhD students of AGST in the BS and ICS programs. It is a great honor that we have 18 participants, including the two program directors (Dr. Rolex Cailing and Dr. Jason Tan), some professors (Dr. Andrew Prout and Dr. Steven Guest), students and alumni, as well as BSOP leaders: Elder Allen Lim (President), Dr. Josephine Recla (Academic Dean), Prof. Linda Tue (Director of Chinese Program). We also have a special guest Ms. Vera Wu, the national director of Scripture Union in Taiwan.
This meal fellowship aims to get to know each other better and to develop friendship and to build potential partnership. We began with prayer and welcome, and continued with self-introductions, and personal communications. We enjoyed great fellowship time over delicious lunch. Finally, AGST students expressed their gratitude to the continuous support of AGST/BSOP in their study, personal life and scholarship. Leaders and professors also expressed that they would continue to do their best to provide guidance and assistance to students.
