Students on Avondale College’s Sydney campus now have a midweek Respite as a follow-up to their Festival of Faith (August 2-5).
The Avondale Nursing Student Association is coordinating the prayer meeting as a tangible response to what spiritual leader Marleta Fong senses is the beginning of a spiritual revival on the campus. “Students here are quite open with their faith,” she says, “and the meetings this past week gave them an opportunity to share some of their faith journey.”
Speaker Pr Gilda Dholah-Roddy, a departmental director for the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Sydney, spoke on the theme of Soul food.
Respite is held in the chapel at Sydney Adventist Hospital on Thursdays from 12.30 PM to 1.30 PM.
