Mentoring has been God’s blessing in our lives. We praise God for people who have faithfully mentored us in the past at various points in our lives. These include not a few of YB’s Sunday School teachers who proudly came forward to reconnect with him (after more than 30 years!) when YB spoke at different churches.

We are also thankful for countless people in Singapore, Cambodia and Canada that God has enabled us to disciple. Presently YB is mentoring two key young adults in church — John & Alethea. At EAST, he mentors Andrew (Singapore), Bataa (Mongolia), Christopher (Korea), Kwang Sik (Korea), and Sang Hyuk (Korea). These are members of YB’s Family Group (a ministry where each faculty coaches a small group of students). Elaine mentors Angeline, Gerlynn, and Joyce in church and takes care of a group of students’ spouses as part of EAST’s holistic ministry to the family of each student.

… One of our greatest statisfaction in mentoring is to see spiritual multiplication. It’s thrilling to first teach John and Alethea, and then to empower them to teach the teens which include our very own boys, Caleb and David! It has also been a rewarding time to assist them pioneer the teen ministry in our church.
