Immanuel Academy STL is delighted to welcome Mr. Pan Siheng as their latest addition to the faculty. Serving as a half-time teacher, Mr. Pan will be instructing middle school students in both mathematics and science. His arrival was met with warm welcome from both staff and students. Mr. Pan’s presence is seen as an answer to the prayers of the school.
“I am grateful to God for leading me to the position of teacher at Immanuel Academy, strongly feeling that it is God’s will for me to be here. I am very happy that the knowledge I have learned can be used again by God to educate and cultivate our kids. By staying with them together, I see God’s blessings and the image of God inside of them so that they grow up healthy, happily and freely in God’s family. Our kids are very loving, study very seriously, and live a very active life, reminding me that the one who seeks the kingdom and the righteousness of God has great spiritual power and everything went smoothly. In the process of leading them, especially in preparing the courses, I learned more about what the gospel is. For the law is that I can answer the question, but the gospel is to make them be understood by the students I teach, which means lowering myself to love and serve others. I learned to get rid of my inner pride more and am able to put myself in the kids’ position, not only in terms of teaching, but also in terms of daily life. I am starting to learn to care about them in all aspects here in Immanuel Academy, and of course, I am starting to build a loving relationship with them and taste the joy. I have a great hope that the knowledge they learn from my class can be used by God in their future and our time here spent together may be a beautiful story to be memorized. It is very beautiful to see that God’s work is to make everyone abundant; everyone can receive grace and be built up. Pray that God gives me a greater heart and my time here will be more blessed and guided’, shared by Mr. Pan.
Please pray that he has a precious unforgettable journey of faith and mission in St. Louis.
