Message from the Guild President

Welcome from the President

Collin Powell

Guild President
2026–2027

“Leadership is not about holding office, it is about serving people.”

Welcome to the Bethlehem Moravian College Guild of Students.

It is an honour to welcome you to the 2026–2027 academic year as we embrace our theme, Reigniting Bethlehem.

To me, this theme is personal. It is about restoring the pride, unity, excellence, and sense of family that have always defined Bethlehem. It is about ensuring that every student feels valued, supported, and inspired to achieve their fullest potential.

As your Guild, we are committed to listening to your voice, advocating for your interests, and creating opportunities that enrich your academic, social, spiritual, and professional journey.

Building the Bethlehem we all envision cannot be achieved by the Guild alone—it requires every student. Every act of kindness, every idea shared, every event supported, and every effort to uplift another strengthens our community.

I encourage you to become actively involved this year. Share your talents, embrace new opportunities, and work alongside us as we create lasting, positive change.

Together, let us Reignite Bethlehem.
