What has happened during this Pandemic? Flora Lee – ESL Class Teacher
It was on a normal Wednesday afternoon when I was preparing my material for teaching ESL. A few hours later I received an email from the Community Service Committee that all CS activities will be suspended due to COVID-19, until further notice. Our church is following the Government’s regulations and such action is deemed necessary. I felt a bit lost because there was no opportunity for me to say farewell to the students and to each other. For the next few months, we kept contact with our students and showed our care and love for them. Praise the Lord, Jesus knows our needs. ESL has reopened three classes in August and September, and students are enthusiastic to learn how to use Zoom to attend classes. Some involved their sons and daughters to help them. During class, they all show eagerness for it is something new to them. There is nothing that can stop God’s plan to bring us together, no matter what situation we are in. This pandemic will be defeated and when it is over, we will meet again.
