Meaningful Vocation

I am thankful for the opportunity that God has allowed me to bein the training industry. I see the faithfulness and goodness of the Lord.

He is involved in every area of our life. He is in the centre of our vocation. He gives meaning to why we are doing what we are doing. We can certainly enjoy our work for God wants to enrich and bless our vocational life. We carry the presence of the Lord right into the market place and God begins to minister to people around us.

I stand amazed at the Lord's grace in helping me to complete every project. Before every training session, I pray to the Lord for His grace and help. I ask for wisdom, creativity and the ability to gel with the teachers and students that I meet in each school.

Along with enrichment training, I am also conducting vocal training. I learn through every session I spend with my trainees. I am thankful for every person who has made it possible for me to continue my work. I am especially thankful to people who have given me testimonials for my vocal training website http://vocaltrainingjeefong.tripod.com

"Dear Sister Jee Fong, Your lessons benefited me tremendously, especially for someone like me who sing each Sunday without previous training. I tried hard but could not identify areas which needed fine-tuning. Your vocal training sessions helped me understand myself better. I have yet to grasp everything you taught us but I am more confident already. You are a conscientious trainer. I am sure every of your students have gained greatly from you.”

Betty Yeo

His Sanctuary

"Jee Fong is a very committed teacher and comes prepared for every lesson. With her engaging and bubbly personality, she makes lessons interesting and fun and inspires one to try and do more.“

Shauna Law

His Sanctuary

"Sister Jee Fong came well prepared for each lesson. Her tips and techniques are very useful and enriching. I did not even know the "ahem" will spoil our vocal chords! All in all I had gained lots of knowledge and techniques. Thank you Sister Jee Fong."

Simon Loh

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“The vocal training class was very interesting. I have benefited a lot. I have learnt to have expression when I sing, put in emotions when I sing and also on voice control. All these techniques have helped me to be a better back-up singer in my church. I would encourage those who have not attended any such training to go for it."

Joycelyn Lee

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“Jee Fong is an articulated and resourceful trainer. Although I had attended vocal training before, I had picked up many new information and techniques which help to enhance my vocal health.”

Randall Goh

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“I never realize how we can easily spoil our Vocal Cords without knowing it until it’s too late. I now know that taking care of our Voice is quite simple if we were taught the proper Vocal & Singing Techniques. Some of the Techniques you shared with us during your Demo Session was quite simple to practice & proved to be effective. Thank you for sharing and I wish you success in your vocal training workshop.”\

Richard Tan

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“After the vocal training, I am now more confident in singing, at least I dare to sing louder then before and with more expression. Thanks for teaching us the techniques of singing. May God continue to bless you and your work.”

Rosie Lee

“Hi! Your vocal training has helped me in singing properly and with confidence. I will continue to use the techniques to improve on my weak areas. I used to have sore throat after two hours of singing. I have learnt that I have exerted on the wrong muscle and lack warming up. Now with proper practice and knowledge of taking care of my vocal cord, I am able to speak properly after 2 hours of singing. I must thank Jee Fong for her Marvellous GIFT in Vocal Training."

Hong Demei

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

"I can feel the passion that Jee Fong has in wanting to impart all the knowledge that she has to the participants that come to her class. Personally, her desire to make sure that her participants understood and grasped what she was teaching touched me the most"

Lilian Lee

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“Indeed I felt that the training is fruitful and useful to me. Sis Jee Fong has made it so interesting and practical that I can put into practice right away. After attending the training, it has given me more confidence in delivering the songs and able to express better. Thank u Sis Jee Fong. Hereby, I would like to give thanks and praise to the Lord for giving me the opportunity to attend this training. God bless one and all!”

Cheralyn Lim

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“A committed and dedicated teacher to her craft, Jee Fong believes that everyone has a singing voice that just needs the correct techniques to bring it out. I thoroughly enjoyed the training sessions with her and gained a better understanding on how to "stretch " my voice.”

Michelle Chau

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“We have definitely learnt a lot through this course. It has helped us to project our voice better and we have also discovered many new insights. We will surely look forward to attend such courses in the future. Cheers to you our coach!!”

Janet Koh

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“I begin to enjoy singing with a louder voice. Thank you Sister Jee Fong.”

Paul Png

Chapel of Christ the Redeemer

“My greatest achievement is knowing Christ. And that He loves me and you.”

Goh Hong Eng

Church of Our Saviour

“It is most liberating to be able to sing with confidence without getting hoarse or worse, a sore throat. Now I can worship with greater joy!”

Frances Goh

Church of Our Saviour

“After several meetings, I can sing loudly and confidently. It is an enjoyable experience to work with you.”

Clifford Mario

Anglo Chinese School (Secondary)

"Jee Fong's classes enabled me to learn how to use my voice better and to realise that good speech not only included using one's voice correctly but that it was necessary to have the right posture and use correct breathing techniques as well. Jee Fong's personality is also warm and engaging which made the personalised classes all that more enriching to attend."

Bhawani

"It was an eye opener for me. I was not aware of the intricate details of maintaining vocal quality. A great help for me, as a trainer."

Selvarajoo Vadivelu

"I've attended the voice training sessions with hopes of improving my foundational techniques and I have improved since. Now when i sing for longer periods of time, my voice does not feel the strain and tiredness. Praise God!"

Vincent Kwok

Living Faith Church

"Thank you for coaching us in vocal and singing techniques. It had been a fun time. We found the sessions refreshing, enjoyable and relaxing as we’re comfortable with you. You have been very helpful and patient.

May the Lord bless and extend this area of your passion and ministry for His glory."

Eliska

My niece, Eliska, came into the world on 9th Nov 2011. My brother, Edwin, and his wife, Soko, are proud parents of a beautiful girl. It is the first for many of us in the family. My parents became grandparents for the first time in their lives. My brother, Nicholas, is an uncle now. The birth of a new born brings much joy and celebration because of the gift of life. Eliska is so beautiful and adorable.

Undivided

The Lord made us all different; even no two persons have the same fingerprint. That alone is mind-blowing when you recall that there are now seven billion people roaming all over the earth. We may look different outwardly; but God has given us a kindred heart and spirit. We share the same privilege of calling God Abba Father. We are sons and daughters of the eternal God. We purpose in our hearts to learn to embrace people around us who come in shapes and sizes. Our inclusiveness bears witness to the loving presence of God because He set the example by loving with no reservation. We may be different but not divided and we often agree to disagree. That is love and our loving God holds all things together in His hands. He unites us in His divine love.

Undivided

We may worship different ways

We may praise Him and yet spend all of our days

Living life divided

But when we seek Him with open hearts

He removes the walls we built that keep us apart

We trust Him to unite us

In our hearts, we're undivided

Worshipping one Saviour, one Lord

In our hearts, we're undivided

Bound by His spirit forevermoreve

Undivided

It doesn't matter if we agree

All He asks is that we serve Him faithfully

And love as He first loved us

He made us in His image

And in His eyes, we are all the same

And though out methods they may be different

Jesus is the bond that will remain

Your Steadfast Love

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases and His faithfulness reaches to the clouds. We want to bask in His presence and behold His loveliness. We marvel at the greatness and wonder of our sovereign King who never fails us. We will never exchange His presence for anything this world offers. He is the light at the end of the tunnel; He is the hope that leads us on to live each day victoriously and He is all we ever needed. As we embrace Him, we allow Him full access into every part of our being until we see His likeness in us.

Your Steadfast Love

Your steadfast love

Extends to the heavens

Your faithfulness

Reaches to the clouds

Your righteousness

Is like majestic mountains

And your wisdom

Like the depths of the sea

And you come to me

Filling my heart

With your loving kindness

I find my peace

In the shadow of your wings

I eat my fill from the abundance of your household

And I drink from the streams of rejoicing

You are my King

You are my King

You are my King (repeat)

Open Hearts

Last Sunday, we were glad and thankful to the Lord for allowing us to minister at Khush Khabri Fellowship. Monte preached on “Living Your Destiny as a His-story Maker.” (Eph1). We thank God for every open heart who had received the word which was spoken in weakness.

We are completely reliant on the Lord because we know that we can never achieve anything apart from the grace and providence of the Lord. As we sow the seed of His word, we are mindful that the Holy Spirit brings growth to us when we allow the full reign of His Spirit in every area of our life. We are partakers of His divine grace and we can only go as far as He leads us.

His Loving Purposes

God unfolds His loving purposes to us daily. As we journey with Him, we become fully aware of His goodness. There is nothing He cannot do. Our God is boundless, matchless and supreme. 

He sacrificed everything He has to enrich and empower us. We live in and through Him. He is the strength of our hearts.

His tender mercies and loving kindness overflow. We minister by the power of His Spirit.

God unfolds His loving purposes to us. He works in us magnificently and beautifully. He orchestrates the circumstances of our lives. He blesses the work of our hands.

The power of God flows through broken people. He moves mightily through our lives and ministries. He pours His rich anointing on us.

The temporal things of this attractive world have no hold on us. The priceless and precious presence of God keeps us in His love.

Our lives bear witness to the reality of Christ. We purpose in our hearts to seek Him alone. We abandon ourselves to His complete lordship and love. 

We Your redeemed people will not settle for anything less. We receive every good gift that You have freely lavished on us. We worship You almighty God.

The Dream Maker

God births His dreams in the hearts of His children. Dreams are birthed in the heart of God by the power of His spirit. No wonder many have gone out of their way relentlessly to pursue the dream that God has laid upon their hearts. They have stepped out in faith; they have taken risks and made sacrifices because they believed in the God of the dream. The dream maker is the one who will make our dreams come true. Not by power, not by might but by the Spirit of the Lord, the Lord longs to see His dream fulfilled in and through us. He manifests His glory through broken and contrite vessels as we allow His greatness to consume and empower us. The thought that God would birth His dream in us is mind blowing. The awesome God chooses to partner with us in such a tangible and supernatural manner.  We long to see His purposes and plans fulfilled in our lifetime.

Thankful

Monte and I are thankful for the Lord's providence. We have been residing in our present flat since 2001. As our flat is on the 17th floor, we are blessed with a spectacular view from our living room as well as our three bedrooms. We spend enormous amount of time to soak in the picturesque view.
