Vetamorphus 

Vetamorphus Retreat Highlights

This year BHCS has 15 VCE Vetamorphus students. Vetamorphus is a Certificate 3 in Christian Ministry and Theology. 

 

As a part of this course the students attended their first of three retreats last weekend at Phillip Island Adventure Resort, with 85 fellow Vetamorphus students from Victoria and New South Wales. The students first retreat looked at how to engage with the Bible in fun and creative ways. Students were privileged to hear from a range of dynamic speakers on this topic. 

 

A highlight was seeing the students meet other students who are also enrolled in Vetamorphus and for them to share their year with other young Christians. I am always encouraged to see our students develop their leadership skills and most importantly their relationship with God through their Vetamorphus journey.

 

This year the students will once again be putting what they learn into practice by going on a Missions Trip to Fiji in July.
