About Us

Here's a little biography about the bride and bridegroom to-be. Hoping that you know them better and deeper.

About Evelyn Kuang... a.k.a Evie

Evelyn is the youngest of 3 siblings. She grew up in Pontian, Johore. (She doesn't speak cantonese because she grew up watching S'pore channel! ) =p She pursued her tertiary studies in TENAGA NASIONAL UNIVERSITY with a full scholarship by TNB and has been working in TNB eversince she graduated until today. She is 27 this year and has just changed her job function from IT to PR, Media Relations of Corporate Communications in TNB. She finds it a challenging move but exciting journey of transition as she seeks the Lord in her niche in life.

Evelyn is also known as "Evie" in DUMC. She loves God very much. She is passionate about serving in Dew Crew (video) ministry, writing ministry, CG, and enjoys playing piano for events like weddings, prayer meetings, leaders' meetings, YA camps etc. She grew up in a Christian family and has always enjoyed serving as a pianist in Pontian, Joyful Grace Presbyterian Church.

She was active in the youth group since her teenage years. In her university years, she was actively serving as the keyboardist for the RAGE group(youth) of Kajang AOG. Besides playing the piano, she loves to play badminton and squash. She plays badminton every Monday with Janan and a group of happening people. Come to think of it, badminton is one of the activities that drew both Janan and Evie together. Exercise dating...heh.

She loves taking pictures with her Canon Ixus camera besides posing for one, she likes traveling, eating, sight-seeing and reflecting on God's beautiful creation. She loves to be cheery and laugh out loud and could be quite crazily excited with her friends. Her favourite colour are pink and purple (which shall be the theme colour of her wedding) *wink*. She likes puppies and has a collection of them (small soft-toys) in her new Proton BLM. She is a sanguine-phlegmatic and likes to be in the company of friends. She is a dog-lover and can't resist squeezing a cute puppy when she sees one! =pPeople always describe Evelyn as a cheerful, youthful, energetic and enthusiastic young lady. Being excited about things in life is a part of who she is and how God has wired her. She loves God very much. She desires to bring the joy of the Lord to people around her. According to her friends, she has a warm, bubbly, loving personality. The best thing that God brought to her life is having good friends and family around her whom she really cherish. Most of all for having Janan as her best-friend and soul-mate.

One of her favourite quotations is "I believe in the sun even though it is slow in rising. I believe in you without realizing. I believe in rain though there are no clouds in the sky. I believe in God even though he is silent. --Unknown"

About Janan Goh...

He is the eldest son and grandson from the Goh family and so naturally has a dominant personality. His only sister, Jehanne is six years his junior and they share a very close relationship together. (No really! I don't bully her that much...) *wink*

Living in PJ for all his life with his paternal grandparents, parents and with his sister, Janan enjoys the close proximity with his relatives and hardly travels during the festive season. At most, he journeys two roads down to his maternal grandmother's home for Chinese New Year.

Janan has served God for most of his life and is an active Christian living purposefully for God. During his youth days, he was very much part of the Chinese Methodist Church youth group - yes, it is in Mandarin - and very active in the Christian fellowship both in high school and in college. Thanks to the many Christians there, Janan also grew in the Lord as well.

Later on, he was blessed enough to further his studies in the UK at the University of Warwick to pursue his degree in Manufacturing Systems Engineering (a mouthful...). He met many other international friends there and is exposed to all forms of culture and activity whilst in the UK and had the opportunity to travel as well.

After returning to Malaysia in 1999, he joined DUMC church and enjoyed serving with many different persons and ministries there... music and worship ministry, intercessory and prayer ministry, cell/zone leadership, training ministry, writing team... and even a short stint in the ushering ministry and a cameo for the punctuation ministry.

In terms of interest, well... Janan likes writing. Writing had taken on a new level in the past year as he finally wrote and published a book, Journeys of the Heart, and launched it (online) on 8 Aug 2008. This wouldn't have been possible without Evie, who helped design the cover below... (nice or not? Wanna buy a copy?) :)

He also actively writes for the Letticle Group, edits the e-newsletters for his church and recently added Asian Beacon, a Christian magazine, into his portfolio. Not only that, he loves writing e-mails but hasn't had the time or the knack for blogs... (except this one!) :)

In terms of profession, Janan became a Research Analyst with a non-profit organisation (INSAPR, formerly INSAP) for a year before moving on to KPMG, where he has served for nine wonderful years with caring and superb colleagues. No wonder, Janan hasn't moved on... ;)

He has also done other interesting stuff, including mission trips to Myanmar and Thailand, photoshoots and video recordings for TV and newspaper advertising, spoke in camps and young adult/youth groups, sang in concerts... and yeah... if you want to know more... well, just buy my book. *wink*

Okie... that's all, thanks for reading.

My saying is simple: Without God, nothing is possible. With God, nothing is impossible. :)
