CHENNAI TYRANNUS HALL

CTH is a "home away from home" for Christian college students (boys). CTH provides accommodation and holistic care for the students undergoing different courses in Chennai.

​

CTH functions under the Education Board of St. Thomas Evangelical Church of India, with the active support of the Madras Parish. CTH provides for the overall personality development of the students through its excellent facilities and enlightening activities (mentoring, evening devotions, special talks, seminars, retreats etc.). The accommodation in CTH is provided for students who have accepted Jesus Christ as their personal saviour irrespective of their denominations and language.

​​Context:

​

College campuses which produce future leaders of the country are going through different forms of vulnerabilities and intolerance. The politicalisation of universities, stressed academic environment, dominance of social media, influence of alcohol and drugs, relationship issues etc. makes the life of students miserable. Believing students coming from good Christian families and spiritual background also seems to have many times turned away when they were exposed to the new world around them. In this context, CTH facilitates to protect them and ensure producing Christ-like leaders with holistic development.

​

Feedback / Testimonials:

 

Students

"I have decided to spend more time with God now; and try to concentrate on creative works to overcome emotions and temptations”

“I’ll live a true life instead of wearing a mask that I’m a good person.”

“I have decided to do my best in academic and to live with a vision for the glory of God; not to give into peer pressure; to set my limits.”

 

Alumni - Dr. Kirubaharan- Director Opal Dentistry

CTH gave me an environment to learn social responsibility, communication skills and to imbibe leadership characters from peers & mentors. I grew in Christ along with my other inmates which I still cherish. It is a pleasure and privilege to be a CTHian. Cheers.

 

 

Parent - From Elisha & Deena Elisha

When our son, Nikhil Elisha opted to pursue his BE in Chennai, we as parents were worried about his stay.  One of our friends recommended CTH. Yes, this was the right place to spend his four precious years.  Our son got admission into the hostel. The discipline, daily devotions, love, care and concern all put together helped our son to grow into a well matured Christian. The fun, food and fellowship were thoroughly enjoyed.  Time flew and our son successfully completed his studies in Chennai. Thanks CTH for the spiritual upbringing and for moulding and building young lives.  We are grateful to you. Surely it was a home away from home.

 

Resident staff – Mr. Deric Moses & family
