Sadly so many years didn’t find a normal photo with both of us. (Should take more photo next time 🤣)

Even though we don’t have a lot in common, the gospel has brought us together through CF. Still remember the times where you fork out time from your busy schedule in your last year to meet up with us, the committees, during your presidency. 😆

Thank you for guidance and da jie-ness for me at my start of CF ministry. Many times you provided the guidance and feedbacks to get me to reflect and improve during my ministries and presidency.

Though we have not have a lot of deep interactions, your work in ministry has provided a support and example for me and also the younger ones then.

Pray that as you go to seminary that you will continue to remember the CF & church ministries that you have been through. That you time away will be fruitful to equip and prepare you further for ministries in KV.

That you will continue in your steadfastness to persevere and love God and His church. To be single-minded for Him and ask Him for the wisdom, just as how He has blessed and nurtured you to be who you are today. (James 1:2-8)

From you beloved junior, Joshua Chai ☺️

Hi, Cheryl! It's been a year since we first met...time really flies HAHAHA

Thankiuu for all the times you guided me and made time to meet up with me (even though sometimes we're both busy). Your presence in ICF really helped me to feel more at home here at ICF. When I first met you, I wouldn't have imagined I would open up to you like I did up til now. I still have some much to grow in my journey with Christ, but you really helped with opening my eyes and helped me part of the way. I pray that your time in the US will be fruitful and that you continue being the salt and light of the world for others :D

Hey Cheryl, hope you're doing well at your new temporary home hahah! It still doesn't feel too long ago when you had bible study with me, time moves so fast😵

I wanted to thank you for the effort and time you spent in teaching me the Bible, and also modelling to me what it looks like to love Jesus and His Church. You have played a huge part in shaping me to be a more mature Christian in my university time now.

Although I may not have immediately come into a deeper realization of how my Christian life was really like in the times when you were teaching me, I thank God that He has opened my eyes to see the things that you were trying to teach me over time. So your efforts in teaching me were not wasted hehe

I'll always remember the conversations we had together where you'll edify me, along with all the rides home you've given me. I hope I can too, model back the same love and edification you've shown me, to others.

I pray that your time in seminary will be a fruitful and memorable one. I hope that you'll learn lots of great stuff there that'll help you love God even more, and that you'll bring it back home to share with us when you return. Take care!

-Ji Yang🐢

(P.S. I still have the Bible you bought me, the materials are such great quality, I enjoy using it so much haha.)

Hi Cheryl, I am grateful for your ministry in INTI CF! Your presence and your works have edified many people and grown the ministry with more disciples of Christ that convicted by God's words and willing to serve God wholeheartedly!

It's been a blessing that I got to be involved in CF which is faithful to God's words and concern for God's churches. Thanks to your ministry in this CF, making sure this ministry is faithful to God's words and produces more leaders that edify more students to be ready for God's kingdom.

I pray that you will learn alot and sharpen your preaching and ministry skills during your seminary period which can glorify God through serving the churches in Malaysia.

Take care!

HEYYYY CHERYLLLLLLLL

Walao why you leave so fast🥹 I haven’t say bye bye to you lehhh🥹 Anyway, study hard, confirm gt a lot of angmo lengzais thr, you can cuci mata but don’t forget your studies ok? It’s gonna be hard in these two years, maybe you feel like your brain macam CPU (need to work a lot until almost boom like this 🤯), maybe you will cry, maybe you feel like you want to give up because it’s too hard; but my beloved sister, when you have these negative emotions, pls remind urself that what Christ did/experienced is much much harder than what we experiencing now. Therefore, when you have these negative emotions pls remind urself this and tahan it because we gt hope, THE TRUE HOPE. We believe that you can do this because God will lead His people.

Sorry as cina I cannot write too long HAHAHA. But when you study hard, don’t forget that we are here and we will always love and support you, so if anything happens, just tell us ok? We are your brothers and sisters, we care about YOU🫂

So, see you after two years🫂

Your mei mei in Christ,

Vivian

Hey Cheryl, it's been almost a year since the last ICF camp I met you. This is just a really quick thank you for your time and effort in teaching me during the camp about the knowledge of God you have been gathering and learning in your life. I still remember we spent some time talking about God and other topics from photography to K Dramas..

Sometimes when I am going through some of my toughest times in Uni, I tend to go through the encouragement notes you have written (some of the CF boys & girls as well!) I often find that it gives me to power to continue fighting. Although I don't think I have written any notes to you :P (Sorry in advance ;D)

But, I just wanted to let you know I will pray that you will have a fruitful experience throughout your entire time in your overseas learning. Hope that God will bring much greater wisdom and love to you throughout your entire time there as well!

Heyyooo Cheryl, this is a temporary bye bye message to you 😂. I hope that you will come back firmer in faith with all the good "food" in the seminary and be evermore equipped to serve the church.

Two years is not a long or short time away from the church. I pray that you will continue fervently in your God-inspired goal to grow the church here in Malaysia while you study there. Working under you at CF is a privilege, and I learned a lot from you as you model Christ to me and others.

As you venture further into your studies, you might face difficulties. I pray that you will be consistently reminded of God's work in you and the good work that He has prepared for you, so continue persevering for the sake of God's church.

Jia You Da Jie Jie! I'm excited to have you back in 2 years' time!

Hey Cheryl, it's really encouraging to see how you continue working hard for the gospel despite your struggles. I’m grateful that God has made a way for you to serve Him in such a unique situation. I pray that after your studies, you’ll return with even greater wisdom and an even deeper servant-hearted spirit to serve God and His church even better!

I’m especially grateful for the times back in INTI CF when we used to send long messages to each other. I still remember our deep conversation during one of the INTI CF camps—where I was crying (typical me), and you just listened, encouraged me, and gave me the space to express myself. I’ve always been thankful for that.

We’re both INFJs, yet so different in many ways. Sometimes, I wish I had known you better to encourage and support you just as you did for me. But life gets busy, and it’s not always easy to stay in touch. Still, I’m truly grateful and encouraged to see your perseverance through CMA and now your journey into seminary to better serve the church—you’re truly one of a kind :')

Praying that you will continue to have a heart of service for the Lord, and also praying for your LDR with Eugene. I’m excited to see what God has in store for you!

Love,

Jan.

Will miss you lots!

Hey Cheryl,

I still remember speaking to you in Chinese for a week and you were acting like you knew what I’m saying. You’re the most unasian Asian ever and damn, legit thought you were arnd my age back then.

It all started all the way from Ecclesiastes series, damn the series was bored, what even bored was weikin as the speaker, but your guidance and non-stop questioning really sparks my curiosity, but what really keeps me going is the sports HAHAHA. Thanks for telling me what baptism really signifies and means to God and his church, sorting out my churching for A YEAR, and taking initiative for my 21st bday as an evangelism opportunity.

You were really nice in real life but harsh and direct when it comes to online, thanks for confronting me of the truth on WhatsApp. If it wasn’t you, I don’t think I’ll even be growing myself in a healthy church TODAY (the fact that I hate nerds and struggle with long sermons).

The ‘few’ last LFG I had with you was very eye-opening indeed, the one on ‘Love’ does hit me hard, changed the way I view how a community of Christ should be, that’s where I started reflecting my 6years as a Christian. Thanks for the few 1on1 sections too.

May you struggle well for Christ as you pursue your further studies, for the glory of God and the church, sharing the heartbeat of God concerning for the gospel in Klang Valley. Talk more!

Thanks for all your BST for God and His ministry all these years. So encouraging that you're committing yourself into even more ministry exposure and training to love God and us even better!

You've truly been a blessing to so many lives and countless students have benefitted from your preaching and teaching. Above all, you really exemplified, in your attitude and love towards the Scriptures, what it means to be a Christian soldier being on guard in these last days as we wait for our King's return.

Temptations and distractions will come, from angmo rizzlers and cute Guai Lou babies to better McD and tastier Coke and peaceful American sceneries. But, as you'd so often tell us, stay rooted and built up in the very truth that convicted you to come here to Jackson in the first place, and make these 2 critical years of your life a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

'Mei' the 'Kwan'tity of the sheer theological content you'll be absorbing these two years lead you to 'Cher' more quality ministry with us once you're back with us in the warzone! Continue burning bright for King Jesus!
