Lucy & Tess are the pioneer trainees of Messiah's TESOL program. They started in January 2006. The program was initially planned as a 12-month course, but due to the changing trends of TESOL trainings and the demand of the trainees themselves, it was changed to a 6-month tract. They were then joined by five other trainees - Beth, Evelyn, Mikey, Grace & Leila in June of the same year; however only five (5) out of the seven (7) trainees were able to make it to graduation. Grace and Lei will pick up momentum by joining the third batch TESOL course this year.

Update

As of this writing, Lucy and Daisy (Summer batch) will start an ESL class on April 10,2007.

Beth will be married soon and will leave for Taiwan as a missionary teacher in one of the best schools in town.

Mikey is also leaving for Taiwan, and who knows, the Lord will give him opportunities to minister to Taiwanees people through teaching.

Evelyn is having tutorials at the moment and is by faith supporting a Pakistani missionary.

Tess is actively working at Messiah College Foundation as executive secretary to the president.

God in His wisdom will continue to use this batch to minister to His people in whatever manner or line of work, whatever location and in ways that would bring glory to His Name.
