Dear friends,
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, our saviour and liberator!

Early this year the World Student Christian Federation (WSCF) formed a Bible and Theology Commission (BTC) with the aim of building strong theological expertise among member movements and deepen their understanding of biblical work within the Federation. Specifically, the commission will ensure that bible and theology activities will run through the General Assembly (GA) where bible studies and worship life of the GA are integrated. It also aims to build capacity of SCM leaders in leading Bible studies, develop Bible study themes and guide the development of tools and mechanisms, bring back to the mainstream of WSCF, expertise in bible and theology for members and develop partnerships for Bible study and theology with theological institutions.

Dear WSCF 37th General Assembly participants,
Greetings on behalf of the WSCF Executive Committee.
Last March 24, 2020, the WSCF Executive Committee met online to discuss the scenarios of the WSCF General Assembly (GA) and the impact of the pandemic Covid19 this coming June 4 to 12,2020 in Berlin. The Executive Committee also received the recommendation from the GA Local Host Committee on the situation in Germany and the prospects of our GA in June. We also exchanged information from the different parts of the world on the escalating number of cases and its trajectory.
The Executive Committee are one in hearts and minds that the foremost concern is the safety and protection of lives, the well-being of all at this time of unprecedented global crisis. Thru prayerful discernment, the Executive Committee decided to postpone the WSCF 37th General Assembly this coming June and its related events, the WSCF Executive Committee Meetings and the Senior Friends Gathering. The new dates of the GA next year will be announced in the most opportune time, when all the logistics and preparatory arrangements have been re-adjusted and finalized.
At this time of great need, we invite you to pray with us.
