Finding One's Feet

A moving journey of a young man's way home.

At 30, Ken Chin is back at the place where his journey began. “This is where I grew up. Here is where I got all my nourishment." He looks around the hall of Oasis SIB, a local church in Seremban.  “Who I am today, is because of this place," he says simply. 


The 30-year-old recently moved back to serve full-time in church, after spending several years working in the humanitarian and corporate sectors. It was a move that raised eyebrows, but the young man felt a tugging in his heart to return to where he started.
