It's always a joy to see alumni drop by and visit.
Mi-Youn (Korea) came with ginseng candies and her familiar laughter - she was here for a rest, she said. She's serving with the campus ministry in Korea.
Shirley (China) is back from a short trip to Africa and preparing to teach in a Bible school in Cambodia. "It's a small college for local workers," she said. "I'll be teaching my first class on 'The Holy Spirit' in October, please pray for me." .
Si Si (Myanmar), who's just become a radiant Mrs Koh, also dropped by at chapel last week to visit, and meet with her old friends, especially her pal Estella.
And not forgetting Lim (Singapore) who, in fact, spoke at chapel. He gave invaluable tips on how to stay fit and fearless on the mission field, drawing from his recent experience as a sports coach in a troubled land.
Knowing our students are doing well and leading fruitful lives makes our daily labor of lesson preparation, back-breaking marking papers, teaching, tutorials and endless administration that much more meaningful.
