As part of her 70th anniversary celebration, the College held a half-day seminar on 15th May 2018 on the subject, “Christian Spiritual Formation: Its Nature, Potential and Pitfalls”.

On 10th April 2018, TTC held a public lecture by Professor John M. G. Barclay. Professor Barclay is the Lightfoot Professor of Divinity at Durham University in the United Kingdom. Renowned for his work on the history of the early church, he spoke on the topic, “Early Christianity and the Survival of the Poor.”
We give praise and glory to God for making the Spiritual Retreat in March yet another occasion in which he met with the retreatants in deep and profound ways. This is the eighth spiritual retreat since the College began offering it in May 2016. Held on its campus and intentionally limited to twelve retreatants, the Spiritual Retreat made available the time and space for them to commune with the Lord.
