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!
Learn Bible’s Geography, History & Culture
Have you gone on a Holy Land tour in the past or plan to go for one and would like to learn more about the places there? Dr. Keith Shubert seeks to help students better understand the biblical geography, history, and culture. The evening seminars also help students to enhance their personal understanding and study of the Bible.

“Had the privilege of sharing about ‘Contextualization and the Arts’ in the Contextualization class at EAST… Great questions. Great interaction,” wrote Patrick Ng, an EAST Alumni.

Reaching Students in Taichung
EAST students were in Taiwan recently as part of their Cross-cultural Team Internship. Hailing from three nations (none of which is Chinese), they ministered among Taiwanese campus students and churches in Taichung City by sharing the gospel personally, hold outreaches, spoke at churches and on campus. They learnt to live and work together in a multi-cultural team and ministered in a different culture and language than their own.
