Ministry Amongst Books: Librarians Mala and David
Faithful EAST Librarians: Mr David Lim (left) and Ms M Malarkody (right)
Before joining EAST, both Mala and David were civil servants.
“I enjoy interacting with students at EAST. My joy is getting to know the students – both local and overseas and bond with them. The sadness is having to say goodbyes to the international students after their commencement ceremony. I had the opportunities to pray with the students, laugh with them and even cry with them. Having the student librarians have been a source of help and encouragement to me over the years.” Mala shared.
As for David, he recalled, “I joined EAST in 2019 and I was posted to work with Mala at the library. A year later on October 2020, we were faced with the challenge of setting up the library at the Joo Chiat Campus. Because of space constraint, we had to downsize the book collection from 16,000 to 12,000 books. It was a real challenge as we had to label the boxes, shelf the books systematically and it involved the physical labour of moving the books over.”

“Then I saw that there is more gain in wisdom than in folly, as there is more gain in light than in darkness”. -Ecclesiastes 2:13 ESV
Mentoring Groups, Go Forth!
This coming weekend, EAST Mentoring Groups (MGs) head out to various locations in the neighbouring region to serve and minister in a variety of contexts. These short ministry stints are opportunities for our program students to practice servant leadership and apply practical ministry skills together with their fellow MG members. Ministry Weekend is thus part of the holistic development of head, heart and hands in our students that puts classroom learning into hands-on practice.
Our Mentoring Groups will be serving in a culture outside of their own while learning how best to work together in teams. This provides a rich environment where team unity, conflict resolution, and growth can take place. Read more
