“No Needy Person Among Them”
EAST new resident faculty, Mr. Jacob Li, gave a devotion at a recent Chapel service. He profusely thanked the EAST community for the graciously warm welcome that he, Josephine, and their young family have experienced in their transition to Singapore.
From Acts 4:32-35, he exhorted EAST to continue growing as a Christlike community that sacrificially shares their heart, time and possessions so that “there is not a needy person among them.” Praise God for the evergreen reminder!
The collage also shows Jacob’s Mentoring Group (MG) and prayer for Dr. Keith Shubert, co-MG leader, on his birthday.
