Use of New Studio at EAST
The above show first uses of the Studio at EAST Mission Hub since end-2020. We are grateful for God’s provision of equipment and gifted individuals who help us with the recording and production of videos.
Please continue to pray for the effective use of such facilities to help teachers deliver and students learn better in and beyond Singapore. Shalom.

Pray for EAST Community (21 January 2021)
It is a big adjustment for all at EAST since the beginning of this pandemic. Yet, our classes are on-going in Singapore campus through onsite, online and hybrid means in this new semester. We are also thankful for the smooth settling down at 118 Joo Chiat Road, our new EAST Mission Hub.
Let us continue to uplift EAST and one another in prayer. Shalom.

Love One Another
In this letter, Peter writes to 5 regions in the Roman empire, and he addresses his audience as exiles who have been dispersed. 1 Peter 1:1 “To those who are elect exiles of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia.”
It can be surmised that he is writing to groups of Christians facing persecution and or trials. Peter goes on to remind them of the truth of who they are: children of God who have been born again through Christ’s resurrection from the dead. As such they should rejoice, for whatever trials they are currently facing, God has kept an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, in heaven for them.
Therefore, his audience is also reminded of their call to be holy and leave their ignorant ways behind, 1 Peter 1:14-15 “As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct.”
Part of this call to obedience is to love wholeheartedly, sacrificially and selflessly.
Ready. Chapels, Start!
Chapel has started this semester at the EAST Mission Hub, and we started off with a reminder that the Lord is faithful and He keeps His promises.
Keeping to safe distancing measures of the season, we used e-platforms to connect the EAST community for a communal time of prayer and worship.
We give thanks for this unique way of gathering together, and continue to fix our eyes on God as a community.
