Student’s Testimony: Field Supervisors’ Tea 2025

Below is a student’s testimony during Field Supervisors’ Tea 2025. He shared how the Lord led him to sharing the good news of the gospel with many tourists who visited St Andrew’s Cathedral in Singapore.

Hello everyone, I am a student from EAST. I am very thankful to have this chance to share how I recently experienced Gods presence and guidance.

            St. Andrews Cathedral is a very beautiful church in Singapore, located right beside City Hall MRT station. I have brought several friends there when they came to visit Singapore. They all liked this place very much and enjoyed taking photos there. During those visits, I also noticed many tourists taking photos. But after taking pictures, they just left. No one gave them any gospel tracts, and no one shared the gospel with them. When I saw that, my heart felt very burdened. I remembered the Bible says, My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.I also thought of the saying, If someone comes to a treasure mountain, how can they leave empty-handed?They already came to the church, yet they did not hear the gospel. What a pity that is!
