But I did not came today to talk about my grandparents-in-low but to tell a little about my life at Theological College of Lanka
The College was inaugurated in 1963 by the Anglican Church, the Methodist Church and the Baptist Church. Later the Presbyterian Church joined the federation to educate the new clergy in the environment of Sri Lanka and their own Languages; Sinhala & Tamil. It is believed that language is the vehicle of culture and when Christians begin to think, speak, preach, pray and write in their own languages, they soon become familiar with their cultural values and begin to appreciate them in the practice of their Christian faith. This new step was foreseen by all the churches as an attempt to produce indigenous theology by people who are being educated in Sri Lanka.
It has been a very good experience to me and Devaka. However it is very hard for the students, principally to those who are marriage. The students have so many activities all day long, leaving almost no time for their families. Some family have came to live at campus with, but others not and the one who did not came has little opportunities to get together though the academic years.
It is impress the amount of activities that the students have to became a community leaders. I only think that the college only need to remind that the first community in life is the family and the students even the ones that are not marriage should spend more time with their own family time by time. But this is my opinion.
Here are some activities that I have been doing.
