EAST 34th Anniversary & Launch of 4Twelve Academy

Commemorating EAST’s 34th Anniversary and the Launch of 4Twelve Academy

On the morning of 14 March 2026, East Asia School of Theology (EAST) community gathered on campus for a dual celebration: the school’s 34th anniversary and the soft launch of 4Twelve Academy. We are deeply grateful to our invited guests, ministry supporters, alumni, faculty, staff, and students who joined us for this momentous occasion.

The morning commenced with a time of worship led by Henry, Viron and Xinxian (EAST students), acknowledging the Lord’s hand in bringing our community together. Our President, Rev. Chan Chiong Hiok, delivered an encouraging address, revisiting the calling of EAST. He shared several new initiatives spearheaded by both the school and its alumni—graduates who have embraced the vision of developing Christ-centered leaders for the Great Commission. Currently, EAST operates extension centers in Mongolia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and China. As doors continue to open, we look forward to establishing new centers in Myanmar and Kazakhstan. We took time to pray for our school. Dr Tan Hai Meng, chairman of our Board, prayed for our faculty members and staff – that our Lord will continue to fill them with wisdom and encouragement as they teach and serve the students. Mr Patrick Low, an alumni of EAST, prayed for our students – that our Lord will encourage them in their studies and provide for all that they need.
