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
Faith . Hope . Love — which will last forever

Three weeks ago, soon after Tomoki’s kindergarten activity, Eri had bleeding. We paled and rushed to her personal clinic. Thankfully our baby was okay but Eri was diagnosed with placenta previa. Her doctor advised her not to do hard work. So Taka helps her as much as he can, especially in shopping and taking care of Tomoki. We hope her pregnancy condition will change into normal one during these two months. Please pray for her pregnancy condition. Read more
God’s Word is not chained
Jeremy and Dr. Ho in the center, with a couple of students from Hong Kong
Last month, Dr. Ho and I spent two weeks in China teaching the New Testament. The class consisted not only of local students, but also representatives from Singapore and Hong Kong as well. These students remind us of the Bereans “for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so” (Acts 17:11). They left deep impressions on us because of their diligence in working at their quizzes, exam, presentation and written papers.
This trip had pushed me a step further because I was required to translate all my class notes, and lecture in Chinese. However, my visit to the Dead Sea Scrolls Exhibition helped me see the dedication of many heroes who gave their lives to the translation of the Bible. For God’s Word to be truly unchained, it must be heard by people in their mother tongue, their hearts’ language.
