Readying Our Classrooms Within
As we conclude this semester with the completion of our course exams and assignments, we transition into the year-end vacation and make preparations for the coming semester.
Speaking of preparations, we are in the midst of readying our new classrooms at our Joo Chiat campus. As seen in the picture above, these are brand-new classrooms for a new season at EAST.
Even as our physical classrooms are renewed, it is good to take this time to look into our hearts and make ready our ‘classrooms within’ for new seasons of learning. This is when we can come to the Lord and say, “Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my anxieties.” (Psalms 139:23 NKJV)
Yes, together with the Lord, we search within ourselves and process what we find with Him. This is one way we can work with God to ready our hearts for a new season of learning.
May your ‘classroom within’ indeed be renewed and refreshed by the Spirit of God as He journeys with you into your next semester.
Update on Tuvshuu & Burnee
Tuvshintugs Tsogtbaatar (Tuvshuu), MA in Leadership (2018) and Burenjargal Jargal (Burnee), PIM Cert/ Grad Dip in Christian Ministry (2018), with their daughters Gerel (11) and Inuka (8), and family pet Lila. (Youngest son, Tergel, inside mum’s tummy at that time) Early November 2020
Over a week ago, on 7 November, Tuvshuu and Burnee, EAST Alumni from 2018 welcomed the arrival of their third child and youngest son named Tergel. In Mongolian, “Tergel” means “full moon”. He has been given this name in the hope that his life will fully reflect God’s light, just like how the full moon reflects the light of the sun. Also, that his life will be full of light and be complete like the “full moon”. His arrival has already brought much light and completion to the Tsogtbaatars, living up to his name.

5 Fitness Tips from Rev Estella Liu
During our final Chapel of this semester, Rev Estella Liu, a faculty member of EAST who is part of EAST Extension Center led everyone in an exercise segment before Chapel started. We asked her for her top five fitness tips:
- Exercise with someone close to me. I cannot do it alone.
- Join a diet group which requires me to post everything I put in my mouth.
- Download a work-out App and choose suitable ones to follow. I had to change to a lighter routine when my back hurt.
- Keep the nice but tight dresses (pants for the gentlemen) to encourage myself to wear them again someday.
- Sleep early and get up early. This I wish I can do but it has not happen yet!
