“Aua ua ou mautinoa, e le mafaia e le oti po o le ola . . . ona
faate’aeseina mai i tatou i le alofa o le Atua, o lo o ia Keriso Iesu lo tatou
Alii.” Romans 8: 38-39
Talofa lava and Welcome.
Well, it’s
the beginning of a New Year, 2022, and the Final Semester of our academic year
(August 2021—July 2022)! We have been looking forward to this time for its
exciting and inspiring Programmes to bring a challenging journey to the
finishing line. Especially for the final year Diploma, Bachelor, and Master
students.
But as the
Civid-19 hits our shores on the 19th January, everything changed,
and we ought to come up with a Plan B. It’s part of the new normal, isn’t it?
We have been prepared for this, and it’s no time to panic. The new normal
includes creativity and innovation, especially the usage of technology and the
digital platforms to make sure that Covid-19 does not stop us from being
educated, from learning, connecting and communicating.
As I am
writing this, our Prime Minister is speaking on media outlets concerning
Samoa’s situation, moving from Alert Level 3 (Red) to Alert Level 2 (Orange).
Still, schools are closed. We’ve got to use our Moodle Program to reach out to
our students at home. No Problem!!
Nevertheless,
it is of uttermost important, that we also reach out in terms of the persistent
Spiritual sustenance of our students as well as our community. Therefore, our
Sunday Services Online (Facebook Live) will continue as it is very crucial, to
lift up our hearts of Hope in Jesus Christ our Redeemer. Families, Friends and Partners in Christ, we continue to uphold
each other in our prayers. There is no other way, to keep us going and facing
the new normal. Please, be safe and if you have time, there are some of our old
Talanoa Tusi Paia Programmes and Services on our Facebook, plus our Choir
Singing on our YouTube page, just to give you some Spiritual company during
these challenging times.
Grace and
Peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be upon you always.
