Join us for ETHOS Roundtable 2026: Theology of the Body, featuring a main presentation by Dr Khaw Siew Ping, Faculty at Trinity Theological College.

How might a biblical vision of the body challenge contemporary assumptions about ageing, technology and gender—and shape faithful Christian engagement in a rapidly changing world?

Dr Khaw will lead the evening’s main sharing, Theology of the Body. The roundtable will also feature responses from Dr Calvin Chong on ageing, Dr Fong Choon Sam on the body and technology, and BGST Principal Dr Lai Pak-Wah on transgenderism.

Moderated by Rev Dr Edmund Fong, the session welcomes thoughtful questions and discussion from all participants.

🏨📰🌸 What connects Raffles Hotel, The Straits Times, and Singapore’s national flower to a small community of Armenian Christians?

The answer lies in the remarkable story of Armenian believers who made Singapore their home in its early years.

Though small in number, this Christian community left a lasting imprint on the city: the Sarkies brothers and Raffles Hotel, Catchick Moses and The Straits Times, and Agnes Joaquim and Vanda Miss Joaquim. At the centre of their communal life stood the Armenian Apostolic Church of St Gregory the Illuminator—Singapore’s oldest surviving Christian church building. ⛪

✨ Join BGST Collective as we explore the faith, lives, and enduring legacy of these Armenian Christians at the Armenian Heritage Centre.

📅 Date: 31 October
🕒 Time: 3.00–5.00 pm
📍 Venue: Armenian Heritage Gallery, 60 Hill Street
🎁 Do consider a love gift on the day towards the tour cost.

🏙 MM101 - Marketplace Discipleship and Ministry

How can we live out our faith faithfully in the midst of deadlines, office politics, and the demands of everyday work?

Taught by Dr Lai Pak Wah, this course invites students to explore what it means to follow Christ in the workplace, discern their vocational calling, and grow as effective ambassadors for Christ in their everyday contexts. As participants reflect on how the Gospel speaks into and transforms contemporary work, they will also be encouraged to cultivate a deeper experience of God's love and presence in their working lives.

Join us as we learn how spiritual formation and Christ-like character can help us flourish at work and bear faithful witness in the marketplace.
