“Education means much more than many suppose.
True education embraces physical, mental, and moral training…”

STEPHEN LEE
Creative Director/True Success Coach
www.stephensjlee.com
Stephen Lee’s greatest desire is to make the gospel practical in everyone’s lives. At the age of 18, he was suicidal by a depression of not knowing the purpose of his life. Thankfully, God had reached out to him just in time with the spark of the blessed hope. So after high school, he set out on a journey to spread and live out the hope despite his family’s threats and their rejection of the SDA beliefs. Now, after many years of God-given experiences in preaching, healing, teaching, media, and starting a biznistry, he is passionate about coaching God’s people reach their fullest potential. He uses his knowledge as a biznistry teacher in his role as a creative director for Tekoa Missions.
SARAH VICTOR
Health Director
Sarah Jane’s greatest desire is to show young people that a life of service to God is a life of joy and happiness! In her earlier years, she persued a career in pediatrics until she got introduced to medical missionary work, and it was then that her life began to drastically change. Sarah is very passionate about the establishing of hygienic restaurants, and how they can be used to be a center of influence in every community! She uses her knowledge of healthful cookery as the Kitchen Supervisor at Tekoa, as well as her passion for working in the community as the Outreach Coordinator. Her ultimate goal is to inspire an army of youth to hasten Jesus’ coming!
