Summer Cross-Cultural Team Internship
Teams of EAST students who completed their Cross-cultural Team Internship during the summer school break shared about their experiences at the recent chapel. Here’s a collage from a team who served at the Indian Malayalam ministry of Christ Church. We are grateful for brother Biju Samuel, an EAST alumni who now serves with Christ Church and hosted the team.
“Their willingness and trust for us to minister to their children was so refreshing,” shared one team member. “We have never met an all-men group praying so fervently at the Malayalam service,” said another.

Faith Stories: Hear Others, Share Ours
“Had a wonderful time with fellow EAST Students interacting with young Singaporeans using the amazing tool ‘Frames of Mind’ allowing us to hear their story and for us to share our story and ultimately God’s story. Thank you Janice Chuang and Dillon Ng for showing us how.” ~ Michael Tien.
The Evangelism and Follow-up Seminar was conducted as part of EAST Aleph and taught by Ms Janice Chuang and Mr Dillon Ng.
Testimony of A Journey of Faith
Rev. Alfred Yeo, an alumni of EAST and Senior Pastor of Zion Full Gospel Church, shares his personal journey of battling cancer while experiencing God’s presence and the ministry of the Body and prayer. He is learning that “it often takes time before one can see how God can take a tragedy and begin transforming it into a blessing.”
ENCOURAGED BY PRAYER AND BODY MINISTRY
A Testimony by Rev. Alfred Yeo
The month of July 2013 was the defining moment for me. For that moment in time, I felt my life was brought to standstill. After a random check of gastroscopy and colonoscopy, I was told that I had cancer of the osphepagus, and that I needed immediate surgery to remove the cancerous cell and that half of my osphepagus and stomach had to be taken out.
There was no time for me to reconsider any other options. I had to prepare myself for surgery on that weekend.
Someone asked me, how did you feel about the whole situation? Read more

Happy 70th Birthday Daddy!
All students at EAST are required to do practical ministry while studying. Every Friday afternoon I have joined Campus Crusade for Christ in reaching out to international students on Singapore university campuses.
What a joy to see a new believer, LiJing, whom I have been discipling, hunger for God’s Word! As we studied about Jesus’ betrayal, death and resurrection, she asked a good question, “Why didn’t Jesus stop Judas from betraying Him if He is God?” Furthermore, she brought her friend to hear about Jesus. It was exciting to see her plant a seed in her friend’s heart. May the Lord use His Word to speak to her friend.
Between mid-May and mid-June, I spent time at home. Attending my father’s 70th birthday celebration was the highlight. Dad beamed as family and relatives sang “Happy Birthday!” My prayer is that the seed of the gospel that has been planted in my parents’ hearts will sprout.
I have sensed God’s presence and help through your prayers during my transition to seminary life in Singapore. May the Lord rain showers of blessings upon you!
