Testimonial from Shalom CG Members

Testimonial from Shalom CG Members



Andree Surianta

I have known Mr. Richard and Mrs. Rosalind Teo for about 2 years now. He is the kind host for our Shalom CARE group, opening the doors of his house to us every Wednesday nights to allow us to have a small mid-week gathering of church members around the area. He leads a very active lifestlye, despite his age and condition, which might be the main reason on how he can maintain his health well. Of course, he would not be able to do this alone. The support of Mrs. Rosalind Teo is clearly one of the defining factor in his fight against his condition. And of the utmost importance, I believe, is the blessing of our Lord God. His guidance and healing hands has certainly supported Mr. Teo in his fight against PD. We pray that his testimony through this book can truly be a light for people that is travelling on the same path.

Mr. Teo is definitely a God loving man, full of strong determination and a self discipline person. Due to all these factors, he managed to fight a good battle and overcome the PD.

Bravo to Mr. Teo and give praise and honour to our Lord Jesus Christ.

Peter Chow

Having known Mr. Teo for the past 7 years, his fighting spirit has been known by all in the CareGroup. His passion to help others who are struggling with parkinson disease is truly commendable. Even though I may or will not be a victim of this dreaded illness (by God's grace), it is certainly an encouragement to know that ageing does not diminish a person's fighting spirit. Mr Teo is truly a living example of this fact. God’s grace is trully sufficient for His children.

I think Mr. Teo has a very strong determination to fight this PD battle with much support from his loved one, family members, church and close friends around him. I thank the Lord for his grace and mercy that Mr. Teo is still holding on to a good fight as I know many would have give up easy with his conditions. So, I hope and pray that his testimony will be an encouragement to others to follow. Keep it up Mr. Teo.

I have known Mr. Teo since I joined the Shalom caregroup in the late 90s hosted by Mr & Mrs Teo at their home in Taman Desa and personally have been blessed by their kindness, generousity and warm hospitality as a CareGroup host all these years. I have witnessed how both Mr. & Mrs. Teo have grown in their Christian faith over the years. It is through their unfailing, unceasing love and faithfulness in trusting and serving our Almightly God, holding strong in their faith that has made the fight with Parkinson Disease a success. Mr. Teo has indeed fought Parkinson Disease like a true fighter with zest and positive spirit .

It has been a journey of discovery for all, not only for Mr. Teo, a.k.a HeroTeo, but Mrs. Teo, her family and all of us in our close knitted Shalom caregroup.

The road to recovery from Parkinson disease was full of faith, spirit, strength and belief where the vibes flow unselfishly among all. The patience, adoration and selflessness of Mrs. Teo reminds us of the vows we took “in sickness and in health” which struck chords in our hearts.

May this book brings hope to all PD patients and further strengthen our faith and trust in our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.

Mr Teo has been a kind, thoughtful and helpful person. When he gets to know about a need, he will always help by way of finding information from the internet or referring to professionals or people who can provide a solution. I, as a member of his Care Group, are blessed by him in many ways and am happy that he is able to recover and share his experience from this PD that most people are ignorant and not willing to talk about. May God use his testimonies to help and encourage many PD patients out there.

I got to know Mr Teo Kim Hoe since early 90s. At that time our Church Pastor John is the leader to the Care Group. As being new I'm always quiet and most of the time just an observer to the group. My first impression about Mr Teo would always be someone that is elderly and a good heart. He and his wife have always been an encouragement to us all at the CG because of their hospitality.



Few years ago Mr Teo was diagnosed with Parkinson Disease. Instead of feeling sorry for himself, he became a very aggresive person. When I say he is aggressive I don't mean his temper, but rather aggressiveness of knowing more about the Disease that he is down with. He would not give up a single chance of knowing more about the courses of having it and also the way to deal with it. He did a lot of research himself through the Internet and got a lot of advises from professional doctors that are in this field. His attitude towards fighting against this Disease has indeed helped him to come out as a 'Hero' today. This fine day he is a new man in term of physical and also mental. He has fight a good war and he has indeed won a good battle. May God continue to bless him and family for all that he is.

The Great Love of The Wonderful Earthly Host

Praise The Lord! We have been blessed with such a wonderful and marvelous host like Mr. & Mrs. Teo. We have known them for almost three years since the Lord placed us here in this Shalom CG. Mr.Teo is known for his undying spirit and persistency to fight against his Parkinson Disease (PD) which he had been diagnosed several years ago. His strong dedication in combating the PD has been witnessed by his passion in doing lots of research on PD, educating others on PD, cultivating a balance diet and a healthy exercise in the fitness centre. We also admire Mrs. Teo’s love and untiring support to Mr. Teo in combating his PD, her full submission and total obedience as a wife and also their wonderful children’s support to him. Mr. & Mrs. Teo are a lovely exemplary couple who walk in God’s love. We would like to use Romans 8:28 for this great testimony that God has work on him…” More (Mr. Teo is more) Than Conquerors…….. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him who have been called according to His purpose”. We pray that God will continue to bless him and his family and his great testimony on his complete healing from PD to be shared to others so as all glories and praises will be due to our Heavenly Father. Amen!


Kenneth & Kim
Through the direction and guidance of our heavenly Father Jesus Christ, we came to know Mr Teo by joining the Shalom care group. His impression to us is a positive and very strong determination person especially fighting against the Parkinson Disease. Nevertheless, the understanding and caring wife – Mrs Teo has played an important role in winning the battle over the war of this disease. Both the hosts had shown the mercy of GOD in faith and taught us a valuable lesson and method for being kind, generous and faithful in life. The group’s spirit and bonding among all the Shalom members had brought us to another level of how we behave and treat people in our daily life. In conclusion, Mr Teo also name as Hero Teo – you are always my HERO forever. Your fighting spirit against the PD had deeply injected into our blood stream and now is being functioning actively as an immunity system for all “crying in pain” circumstances
