APTS regularly conducts two lectureship series: The William Menzies Annual Lectureship and the Occasional Pentecostal Lectureship.

This year's Annual William Menzies Lectureship will be the 20th in the series. With the recent passing of Dr. William and Sis Doris Menzies, the 20th Anniversary William Menzies Lectureship will be especially poignant.  It will be held on the 30th of January to the 3rd of February, 2012. We will have the two sons of Dr. Menzies and Sis. Doris - Glen and Bob - as the featured presenters.

Together with the Lectureship, we plan to have a Memorial Banquet to celebrate the lives of Dr. William and Sis. Doris Menzies. We will also have an Asian launch of the Sis. Doris Menzies' book, Young at Heart, which talks about the time when she was serving as the APTS President's wife.
