A reflection theme for Holy Saturday–the day “in-between” the eventful days of Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday: If God is indeed real, why is there death and suffering on Earth still? Consider pondering over Mr Max Jeganathan’s message as he spoke at a Good Friday Service on this universal issue of suffering. Whether one is a follower of Christ or otherwise, his message is deeply relevant to us all.

Student Council AGM 2022
How have the Student Council (SC) been instrumental in developing community at EAST?
The answer to this question and more were part of the report made at the SC Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 25 March 2022.
The program was designed as a Thanksgiving Service and SC Annual Election. There was praise and prayer time as we thank God for: the graduating students; the events and activities of SC as reported by the Student President; testimonies of growth by SC members; and the casting of votes by the students for the next SC. The votes will be tallied and the final slate of elected candidates who have agreed to serve will be made known at a later date.
