Operations Team: Chris Wong, David Lim & Raymond Lim
The three gentlemen behind EAST Operations Team consist of alumnus Raymond Lim who graduated with a Master of Divinity in Intercultural Studies (2019), Chris Wong, Zone Pastor of Living Sanctuary Brethren Church, who joined in 2018 and David Lim who had years of experience in the manufacturing sector. All three of them were instrumental in the EAST move from Middle Road EAST Office and Dorset Road EAST Library to Joo Chiat Road campus in 2020. Shifting the library which involved curating, packing, and moving 16,000 books to its present locale was a massive project as there was no lift available at Dorset Road campus then. By God’s grace and with the help of library staff, Mala, and many other unnamed faculty, staff and students back then, the library was safely and successfully relocated. This was amidst the Covid pandemic no less!
Alumnus Zoloo Damba – Mongolia Campus Crusade for Christ’s new National Director
On 9 October 2023, Zoloo Damba (EAST Alumnus, Master of Arts in Leadership, 2020) was installed as the 2nd Mongolian National Director of Mongolia Campus Crusade for Christ (MCCC). It was a significant milestone for Zoloo and MCCC as there is a transition of leadership from the first Mongolian National Director Bataa Juvaa (EAST Alumnus, Master of Divinity, 2011) to another Mongolian, both EAST alumni.
EAST news managed to get Bataa Juvaa to share some thoughts regarding both Zoloo’s and his own time of equipping at EAST.
