Hook, Book, Look, Took!
In teaching others, would you like to learn how to assess the audience, develop a lesson plan, and facilitate in order that participants are actively engaged in the learning process? The Teaching and Learning 1 course, being taught by Dr. Jeannette Shubert and Mr. Jacob Li, seeks to equip students with the ability to teach effectively in the context of background and needs of the audience.

Mentoring Group Ministry Weekend to 6 Cities
This year’s Mentoring Group (MG) Ministry Weekend sees teams of MG ministering in Batam, Kuala Lumpur, Malacca, Medan, Pontian, and Singapore. The four-day event allows staff and students to serve the churches and Christian organizations as needed. In the process, it engenders team building and lessons learnt from doing ministry cross-culturally.
“The church offers diverse ministry opportunities and there are already very good exposure established through this trip with the church which we may continue to nurture in future trips,” mused one team with members from six nations.
Most Important Ministry Partners
Wives of pastors, missionaries, and field ministers are the most important ministry partners of their husbands. EAST’s Partners In Ministry (PIM) program seeks to equip these women as growing partners and effective co-labourers in their family and ministry. PIM is led by Mrs. Margaret Chan together with her PIM faculty team.

EAST’s staff recently celebrated the 65th birthday of Rev. Chan Chong Hiok, the President of EAST, or CCH as he is affectionately called. Margaret, his wife, read a moving tribute which began by recognizing the greatest honour that has been bestowed upon him is that of God’s beloved child and being co-heir with Christ. We thank God for His placing you at EAST to be His agent of positive change leading to growth and fruitfulness for His glory. CCH and Margaret, may the Lord continue to bless you both with many more good years of faithful and fruitful ministry together. Shalom!
Teachers & Staff Appreciation Day
Teachers and Staff appreciation day came at the last chapel where the Student Council recrafted a familiar song to sing of the work and ministry of these stalwarts. Cupcakes were given out to all faculty and staff while a humorous poem was the icing on the cake. Happy Teacher’s Day! Happy Staff Day!
