CAREY WEEKLY NEWSLETTER 2025 S1 WEEK 10

It’s so good to be back!

It’s so great to have students back in classrooms and live on Zoom, and we hope you are all easily able to get back into the rhythms of study. We had an amazing Mission Week with Johan Linder speaking in karakia (see below for a recording if you missed it), encouraging words from Arotahi, and various stations around campus to orient us toward what God is doing around the world. What a great way to kick off the second half of the semester!

Also, you have plenty of time, but check out the graphic above because the last week of lectures (aside from Make-up Monday on 16 June) is fast-approaching, and the end of the semester a couple weeks later. Don’t panic, but keep working hard and planning well!

Our Student Support team are always here for you, just like they have been all semester. Stop by the library, give them a call, or shoot them an email if you need anything at all.

Academic Committee Feedback

Don’t forget you have Herman and Janine as your representatives on Academic Committee. They are here for you if you have any feedback on things like our new AI Declaration or anything else. Shoot either of them an email for things you want raised.

CAREY WEEKLY NEWSLETTER 2025 S1 WEEK 9

Back to it, plus it’s Mission Week!

We missed our regular lecture schedule over the Study and Reading weeks, and we missed seeing many of you in classroms and on Zoom. This week is going to be great, but not only because we get to see you all again. It’s also Mission Week!

Mission Week is an important week of the year at Carey, and this year is no exception. Check below for more on what’s on.

Mission Week 2025—a message from Emma

“Mission Week is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate our good God, who is present and active in the world by the Spirit bringing transformation and renewal. It is also an invitation to reflect afresh on all that God has invited us to be part of.

This year we are delighted to be partnering again with Arotahi. During the week there will be ‘reflection stations’ dotted around Carey based on Acts 17:28, ‘In him we live and move and have our being’. Keep an eye out for them and make sure you visit them all. 😊

We will also have ‘something extra’ happening during Monday and Tuesday lunches. On Monday we will hear a video message from Chris Poniah, (Director of Mission Interlink). Tuesday we will be joined by Annie Snook, (Global Catalyst, Arotahi) and will be inspired by some of what Arotahi’s partners are involved in. We will also be encouraged to consider what part we can play in God’s redemptive work in the world. You don’t want to miss this!

During Karakia on Tuesday morning, we are excited to welcome Johan Linder, (OMF Director) who is bringing us a message from Isaiah 55. It’s going to be a great week!”

Our support team is here for you

Now that we are back to our normal schedule, our Student Support team are still here for you, just like they have been all semester. Stop by the library, give them a call, or shoot them an email if you need anything at all.

Karakia is back too!

We’re pumped to be back to gathered worship as well, and we will have Johan Linder (OMF Director) sharing from Isaiah 55! Come to the chapel at 11.15am on Tuesday to join in!

Catch up on all the recordings
