The closing date for the submission of nominations for five members of the Convocation to the Excom of the Convocation was 18 May 2020 at 16:30. A total of six nominations were received and scrutinised, after which two nominations were declared invalid due to substantial non-conformance with the requirements laid down. The remaining four candidates are thus elected to the Excom and will serve for a period not exceeding five years.

1. Dr Pieter Bettings

Dr Hee-Young Lee became the first Korean student to obtain a doctorate degree at the University of the Free State’s (UFS) Department of Ecclesiology during the recent autumn graduation ceremony. Dr Lee researched the well-known South African theologist, Rev Andrew Murray. Rev Murray’s theology made an impact in the South Korean church history since its early days. Dr Lee is an assistant pastor at a Presbyterian congregation in South Korea and is also a part-time lecturer in church history at the Baesuk Theological Centre in Seoul. Here with Dr Lee (right) is Prof. Dolf Britz, promoter of Dr Lee from the UFS Department of Ecclesiology.
