Seder Celebration & Reflections

 

“Seder” Reflections 2023

On 5th April preceding Good Friday, EAST celebrated Seder (Passover) as part of a Chapel Service. This was led by Rabbi Dr Keith Shubert. The experience was rich, thought- provoking, and meaningful. As a family of God, we acknowledged the work of Christ on the cross and Jesus being our Passover Lamb. We experienced what a normal Jewish family goes through in observing the Seder.

EAST Student Council: Serving as unto the Lord

L-R: Mikeel Arana (President), Rebecca Chen (Treasurer), Japheth Chew (Vice-President) and Anj Pantaleon (Prayer Co-ordinator)

 

At a recent EAST Student Council’s Annual General Meeting, we had a time of appreciation for our Student Council (SC) 2022-2023 members who have been faithfully serving the EAST community over the past year. We have been very blessed with the zest, joy, community spirit and prayerful ministry that the SC has brought into the EAST community.

This outgoing cohort of SC is made up of international students from around Asia. We have witnessed a high level of synergy when this team came together to serve and lead the EAST community. This synergy was felt by the entire school, and it has energized all through the times of celebration fellowship, worship, and community games. The SC had also sensitively led us through prayer sessions in refocusing on God amidst the stress of studies and frenzy of activities.

Inter-Collegiate Games Day 2023

 

After four years, the Inter Collegiate Games(ICG) 2023 resumed on the 3rd of March. Inter-collegiate games are sports competitions between different bible colleges or seminaries. These games can be a great opportunity for students to represent their school and showcase their abilities. The ICG comprises 5 competitive games and 1 indoor activity. Alongside these activities, there were snacks and ice cream provided by the host school, Singapore Bible College, for family, friends and alumni who came down to cheer and support their loved ones.

There was excitement when it was announced that ICG will be held this year! However, the excitement isn’t uniform. Some were excited because ICG is an event that unifies Singapore’s different seminaries, others were excited to be able to just play sports, and others were excited by the prospect of displaying their talents and getting the first prize and more. The motivations behind one’s excitement are an interesting insight because from those motivations we will be able to track one’s personal understanding of the purpose of the ICG.
