New Saint Andrews Christmas Concert 2009

“Calvin and the Huguenots,” Francis Foucachon – New Saint Andrews College

Francis Foucachon speaking at NSA’s Disputatio – Calvin@500 Series. “John Calvin and the Huguenots”

From an NSA news release:

     Rev. Francis Foucachon, a native of France with a Huguenot family heritage that extends to the 16th century Protestant Reformation, will present "Calvin and the Huguenots" at the Nuart Theater this Friday, October 30, at 3 p.m. The lecture is free and open to the public.
     The lecture, the fifth in the College's yearlong Calvin Lecture Series marking the 500th anniversary of John Calvin's birth, is on the eve of day that Protestants celebrate the Reformation worldwide.
     Foucachon is an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and has served as a church planter in France with Missions to the World. With its speaker series, New Saint Andrews joins an international and interdenominational commemoration of John Calvin's life and work. New Saint Andrews, which is firmly rooted in the Calvinist tradition, is a limited-enrollment classical Christian liberal arts college located on Friendship Square in Moscow, Idaho.

Last Disputatio of the Class of 2009!

Can you believe it? We just had our last Disputatio as a class at NSA?

God has been very good to us, allowing us to travel thus far. I am very grateful for such a wonderful class, and I hope we all keep in touch. To that affect, I plan to keep THIS blog going as a place where we as Alumni can come and keep getting NSA info, or see what’s going on in Moscow.

Here are the two videos I presented at Disputatio.

• The first is a slideshow of some photos I through together of our 4 years here. It is only a tiny sampler of all the photos I have!
• The second is a compilation of spliced videos from our 4 years. Again, only a sampler of what I have! I had to cut some GREAT stuff! (such as some of our declamations).

I uploaded a bunch of videos not shown here on a YouTube playlist called “Live in Moscow as an NSA student,” which you can find HERE

 

Enjoy!

The New Saint Andrews Spring Concert is up:

Dr. Erb did a wonderful job conducting and organizing the concert!  I believe that this is the largest choir in the Moscow region.

Represented were: the NSA choir, the Christ Church Adult Choir, the Christ Church Youth Choir and the Trinity Reformed Youth Choir.

The concert begins with the blowing of the horn calling the singers in – very impressive!
