The Faculty of Theology at the University of the Free State (UFS) became the first faculty in the country to present a certificate course in church ministry specifically for Chinese students. This course with Chinese Christians in mind was developed by Rev Ko-Ta Jen. He translated the course in Mandarin, the only course of its kind in South Africa. The first students completing the course received their certificates at the recent Theological day at the UFS. The students are involved in commerce and industry. Rev Ko-Ta Jen has among others student in Bloemfontein, Durban, Port Elizabeth, New Castle and Johannesburg. Rev Johan Botha is the coordinator for short courses like these, presented at the Faculty of Theology, UFS. At this occasion two students from African churches also received their certificates in church ministry.
