History Of The Elim Gospel Hall, Ipoh (1913 - 2003) - Part 12a - Elim Gospel Hall 1968 - 1987
In 1968 four brethren in the assembly were appointed deacons, namely Mr. Cheong Nyuk Seng, Mr. Koon Fook Sam, Mr. Edward Low and Mr. Chooi Peng Kwan. At the time there were two elders: Mr. Victor Doss and Mr. Low Ah Yu. In 1970 Mr. Chooi Yew Hong who had been in close fellowship became the third elder. In 1974 the number of elders increased to five with the appointment of Mr. Cheong Nyuk Seng and Mr. Chooi Peng Kwan.
With the growth of Elim and the increasing number of converts, Mr. Kong Yeng Choon, working in Shell Company, Ipoh, was made an elder. He was used by God in the expansion work of Elim Gospel Hall in these years. He led in prayers and preached the gospel. In 1976, he was transferred to Kuala Lumpur and in 1980 migrated with his family to Australia.
In 1955 Mr. Victor Doss commenced preaching and in 1959 became an elder in Elim Gospel Hall. In 1960 he took over the work in Kampar. In 1969 he resigned his job with the Geological Department in Ipoh to become a full time worker and missionary. Mr. Victor Doss served faithfully at Elim Gospel Hall until he retired to Klang in 1987.
