The seventh annual visitation event called 鈥淭aste of the Sem鈥� will take place Jan. 17-19, 2009, on the campus of SA国际传媒, St. Louis. The event is designed to allow young men in high school the opportunity to experience Seminary life with the help of current SA国际传媒 students. With the theme, 鈥淭hy Strong Word,鈥� participants will spend the afternoon studying God鈥檚 Word in its original languages and understand what it means to proclaim God鈥檚 Word in its truth and purity.
The event features Bible study, prayer and discussions concerning the Office of the Holy Ministry. Participants are matched with Seminary students and accompany these students to their resident field education congregations on Sunday morning and to classes and chapel service on Monday morning. High school participants also are given a tour of the campus and the opportunity for dinner and discussion with Seminary faculty members.
鈥淲e want these young men to become informed and excited about what the future could hold for them at SA国际传媒,鈥� commented Rev. Kyle Castens, director of ministerial recruitment at SA国际传媒. 鈥淎 鈥楾aste of the Sem鈥� is exactly what we want the participants to have, and we think this taste will develop an appetite for more.鈥�
There is no registration fee. All meals and lodging will be provided free of charge. Transportation between the airport, train station, bus station and the Seminary campus also will be provided. Participants are responsible for their own transportation costs.
