Quotes From Staff - 2007
John Tompkins (Alumni)
HS English Teacher
28 years at Dalat
The best part of working at Dalat is knowing you have an
impact for Christ and His Kingdom. Many of my former students are now
serving the Lord on the mission field or in mission-related ministries. Many
of them have become pastors and teachers. It’s neat to have an impact for
Christ in this way. A side benefit is that you build life-long friendships
with people from many different cultures and backgrounds. I can travel
pretty much in any continent on earth and find former students/staff to bond
with.
