Come Visit EAST at Antioch Summit 2026!

1–3 October 2026 | Paya Lebar Methodist Church

What does it mean for the Church in Singapore to have a “sacred ambition” to see Christ made known among the nations?

This October, Christians from across Singapore will gather for Antioch Summit 2026, the fourth Antioch Summit in the Decade of Missions (2023–2033). Organised by Antioch21, the Summit brings together people from across the Church around a shared vision of seeing the Gospel reach every nation.

Anchored in Romans 15, this year’s theme is “Sacred Ambition.” The Summit invites participants to worship and pray together, seek God’s heart for the nations, and consider the part He may be calling each person to play in His global mission.

EAST will be there — come and say hello!

We are delighted that East Asia School of Theology (EAST) will have a booth at Antioch Summit 2026 on the first two days, 1 and 2 October.

If you are attending the Summit, do drop by the EAST booth and meet us!

Whether you are exploring God’s call to missions, considering theological education or ministry preparation, or simply wondering how you can be better equipped to serve Christ in Asia and beyond, we would love the opportunity to connect with you.

Alumna Pang Xin Xian: Joy of Seeing God’s Fingerprints

Pang Xin Xian (Singapore), MDiv ICS On September 25, 2025, the Field Education class went for a wheel-throwing formation workshop. Here is Xin Xian’s reflection.

We felt very excited as it was the first time to the pottery for everyone. Many lessons stood out for me. The first was that wheel-throwing is a slow and repetitive process, which requires many rounds of spinning. A few times, I exerted too much or too little pressure and my clay went wobbly. Thank God that the instructor was always on hand to re-center my clay. This spoke to me of God’s work in my life, and how He is always there even though it feels like I am just going around in circles.

Stewarding Resources – Strategic Church Leadership Workshop by 4Twelve Academy

 

How does your church steward the resources that God has provided to accomplish His vision for your church?

Join a 4Twelve Academy 3-hour workshop on effectively stewarding resources through biblical and practical ministry planning frameworks, workflow and system designs. Learn from Mr Tan Ban Thong and Mr Edwin Sam who have much capacity building experiences with churches and private/public organisations.

Calvary Chapel

Public Mansion, S(329813)

FREE sign-up: StrategicLeadership412.Eventbrite.sg

Here are some comments from those who attended a prior workshop in this series:

  • “The integration of spiritual and operational stewardship gave me ways to apply what I’ve learnt to my church.”
  • “Learnt about stewardship vs being controlling, using our time, talent and treasure to serve the community of God, and bringing order from chaos, to benefit the community in church and at large.”
  • “Very important reminder that we don’t own the ministry.”
  • “Every good things come from God. Organisational structures and strategies are spiritual in nature as much as financial wisdom that the scripture often teaches.”
