Get to Know the Team: Calvin Ying

1. What made you decide to work at OYP?
OYP’s mission has always resonated strongly with me as my own faith was stirred thanks to the work of the office. So when the Lord planted a desire in my heart to devote more of my life to serving Him, working at the office was an option I had in mind. As I discerned it further over time, it became clear that this was where He was calling me to and so when the opportunity presented itself, I decided to join the office!

2. What gives you the most joy in your work at OYP?
Journeying with the young people! Their search for faith inspires me; seeing them grow in their love for Jesus Christ and witnessing how His love transforms their lives brings me the most joy.

3. If you had to pick just one dish that you had to eat for the rest of your life, what would it be?
I really can’t answer this question! But if I had to choose a cuisine, I’d say Singaporean food. I love many other cuisines, but life would feel weird if I were to never eat Singaporean hawker food ever again.

4. What is your favourite way to relax?
Waking up to no alarm, having a relaxing afternoon spending time with loved ones, and catching a good soccer game or movie.

The One Thing Necessary: 5th Sunday of Lent

‘Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But, if it dies, it produces many seeds.’ (John 12:24) In this Sunday’s Gospel, we’re reminded of the reality of death. At first glance, we may be quick to think of the physical and natural aspect of death. Yet, the call of Christ also entails dying to self – surrendering the desires, the habits and lifestyles that prevent us from following and loving Him.

What’s wrong with the world? As we scroll through the headlines of wars and crimes happening today, this question may surface in our thoughts. It has also been pondered throughout human history, for the darkness in the world is not something unique to our time.

The One Thing Necessary: 3rd Sunday of Lent

If Jesus were to enter our churches today, what will He find? He would not find any cattle, sheep or doves, like in today’s gospel. But will He find our hearts noisy and distracted with our worldly concerns and thoughts?
