This month, Trinity Christian College will host a full-month showing of the Cal and Ines Seerveld Art Collection, donated to the college by Dr. Cal Seerveld, a founding member of ICS. This remarkable collection includes over 60 artworks, featuring pieces by Krijger, works from young Patmos artists, and valuable art inherited from Ines' family, including works from her grandfather, Max Huber. ICS Junior Member Peter Enneson (M.Phil) has been instrumental in advancing this bequest and providing background research on the various artworks.
We give thanks for this generous gift, which will enrich Trinity’s community and all those who engage with these pieces. Please pray that this exhibition will serve as a source of inspiration and reflection, and that many will come to appreciate the beauty and depth of this collection.
Monday, February 10 - Friday, February 14:
On February 13, ICS will host a virtual open house for our MA (Phil) in Educational Leadership (MA-EL) program. This program is designed for Christian educators and administrators seeking to reinvigorate their teaching and leadership.
Please join us in praying that those who would most benefit from this program will find their way to this opportunity and that financial and logistical barriers will not stand in the way of their participation. May this open house be a time of meaningful connection and discernment for prospective students.
Monday, February 17 - Friday, February 21:
ICS enters Reading Week starting February 17. This is an important time of rest and reflection for both students and faculty. We ask for your prayers that this break will be restorative, allowing all in our community to return to their studies and teaching with renewed energy and passion.
From February 21 to 23, ICS faculty members Dr. Neal DeRoo and Dr. Gideon Strauss will attend the Jubilee Conference, with Dr. DeRoo delivering a lecture titled "How Philosophy Can Change the World." We pray that ICS’s presence at this conference will help equip the next generation of leaders and thinkers.
Please pray for Dr. DeRoo as he presents his lecture, that his words may be challenging and compelling. Pray for ICS faculty as they engage with students and participants, fostering meaningful conversations about faith and philosophy. Pray for the conference attendees, that they may encounter new ideas and leave encouraged in their vocations.
Monday, February 24 - Friday, February 28:
Applications for the ART in Orvieto program are due by February 28, which provides an opportunity for artists and scholars to explore the intersection between their art and their faith.
Please pray that this opportunity finds those who would thrive in it, especially in our difficult financial times. May this initiative continue to be a place where deep learning and creative expression come together in ways that honor God and inspire all who attend.
May this month be filled with moments of renewal as we seek wisdom together. Thank you for keeping ICS in your prayers!
