Spiritual Leader
Greetings to you all in the name of our soon-coming Savior, Jesus Christ. Welcome to the
Spiritual Department of the Unitech Adventist Tertiary Students Association (ATSA). The
Spiritual Department of Unitech ATSA is dedicated to nurturing the spiritual growth and
well-being of Adventist students at the Papua New Guinea University of Technology. Our
mission is to encourage and support students in maintaining a strong and vibrant relationship
with God as they navigate their academic journey.
The Spiritual Department seeks to provide spiritual nourishment through daily Bible study,
prayer, and other spiritual activities that foster a deeper connection with our Creator. We are
committed to helping students grow in their faith, stay grounded in God’s Word, and actively
engage in His mission both on and off campus.
Key activities of the Unitech ATSA Spiritual Department include:
Bible Study: The Spiritual Department encourages Adventist students to engage deeply with
the Scriptures, guiding them to not only study the Word but also share it with others. We
believe that studying the Bible strengthens students’ spiritual integrity and equips them to
live out their faith in their academic and personal lives.
Prayer: Every Sunday morning, the Spiritual Department organizes group prayer sessions,
where Adventist students come together to communicate with God through prayer and
supplication. These sessions help students build a consistent prayer life, strengthen their bond
with God, and foster a spirit of unity among like-minded believers.
Branch Sabbath School Program: Each Sabbath morning, the Spiritual Department
coordinates Branch Sabbath School sessions where Adventist students share God’s love and
experiences with their peers in dormitories. Through Bible stories, songs, and fellowship,
students are encouraged to stand firm in their faith while also helping others experience the
love of Christ. This program serves as a refreshing spiritual revival after a week of academic
challenges.
Outreach Programs: The Spiritual Department also facilitates outreach initiatives,
encouraging students to extend God’s love to the surrounding community. Through these
programs, students are given opportunities to share their faith, assist those in need, and
actively participate in spreading the Gospel message.
In addition to these activities, the Spiritual Department plays a vital role in organizing and
supporting other spiritual programs within the church and school community. Our goal is to
provide a nurturing spiritual environment where students can grow in their faith, share the
love of God, and be a light in the world around them.
We are here to help each other support our spiritual journey, helping ourselves to stay
connected to God and remain steadfast in our commitment to His mission, even as we pursue
our studies. May we experience spiritual growth, peace, and joy as we walk with God
throughout our academic journey.
