A for Aleph, EAST Aleph!
Aleph is the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet. At East Asia School of Theology (EAST), the term EAST Aleph refers to a two-week immersion experience for new students. It occurs each July before the start of a new academic year and is considered the start of matriculation for EAST’s academic programs. Below is a brief report on this year’s EAST Aleph (2-16 July 2021) written by Mrs Josephine Goh-Lew, an EAST Resident Faculty and the Director of Mentoring Groups. It also includes a reflection on the event by a new student, Mr Daniel Yoncer, who went through the actual EAST Aleph.
EAST New Logo
One of the many new things that the Lord has done at EAST-“New Logo”.
The colour green signifies growth. The cross represents Jesus Christ who is the source and goal of our faith. The flame which is also shaped like a dove represents both the Holy Spirit and the fireseeds of the gospel. The book is in reference to the Holy Bible which is for our life transformation.
View the video below for our refreshed brand and the rationale behind the new logo.
