Hi everyone,
This is to inform you that 2 of our classes have resumed for the 2nd semester in Malaysia. Both these classes are doing the Book of Daniel. They are in the 2nd week and both classes are seeing an increase in class attendance.
Attendances at these 2 classes are: YMCA Ipoh Class 58, MGC Ampang 45,
Please keep praying for these classes as class members “tell of the goodness” to others. We pray that many will be blessed as they come to CBSI classes.
I would like to thank the many of you who have been praying for CBSI Malaysia. The process of getting CBSI registered is now half way through and we are confident that it will be registered before the Inaugural Board meeting on 21 October 2008. Please continue to pray for those who have accepted the invitation to sit on the Board. The functions of the Board is primarily to give directions and decide on the policies for our ministry here in Malaysia. Thus as National Director, I will be accountable to the Board.
Please also pray that together with the Board we will be able to take CBSI to a greater height. I am eagerly looking forward to working with the Board to raise the finances we need to run the ministry. At the moment it has been a heavy task upon me. Please also pray that the funds will come in.
Our annual Annual Budget for the year 2008 is around RM80,000.00. To-date we have only raise 30% of our Budget. If the Lord so moves you please kindly send us your support. Cheques should be made out for the time being to : “CBSI“. and sent to
CBSI Malaysia 26, Jalan Kasawari 2
Bandar Puchong Jaya, 47100, Puchong, Selangor.
Praise the Lord for He is always Good.
I received a call today from a sister who works among students and realized that they needed to be grounded in God’s word. She had gone to a Christian Book Store to find some Bible study material but was unable. Someone at the book store gave her my number and asked her to call me. She did. We are planning to meet this Saturday and to share with her the uniqueness of CBSI and how it can help one to grow in God’s word.
Please pray that this meeting will be fruitful and bring every one in the World in the Word.
Praise the Lord.
After a break of over 6 weeks, classes will once again commence. We start with the class in Ipoh on Wednesday 17 September 2008 meeting at the YMCA, and the class in Ampang at the Melawati Gospel Centre. Both these classes will be studying the Book of Daniel. I am preparing a new introduction for these classes. Please pray that those who come will benefit and draw close to God. I gather from our coordinator that 60 persons have registered for Ipoh. Praise the Lord. Also pray as I travel by bus each Wednesday to Ipoh, that God will give me the strength and protection. Pray for the retraining of all small group leaders. Pray also as the Assistant Teaching Leader who will do a little more teaching this time round.
I want to begin with thanking you for your prayers for our visit to the Historical city of Melaka on 6 & 7 September 2008. It is about 2 hours drive south of Kuala Lumpur. With me were 2 other couples whose lives had been changed by studying the Word of God.
Gathered on Saturday evening at 6.00p.m at Christ Church, Melaka one of the 2 oldest churches in the region, were about 20 leaders, pastors and coordinators of ministry groups. Fred did a great presentation on the Ministry of CBSI. Following him was David Henry, a retired Senior Police Officer who attended the CBSI Class in PJ with a 100% attendance. David shared how CBSI had changed his life and encouraged those gathered that they needed to get into God’s word. He was followed by Mr. Fang who shared that the method used in CBSI was very effective. The third testimony of the evening was by Yoke Fong who is a small group leader. She is Fred’s wife who shared that she had experience much love and care from her group members when her mother passed away. These are some of the uniqueness of CBSI.
The group in Melaka are excited and they plan to begin a class next year after the Chinese New Year. They even went ahead and appointed a coordintor to help in all the preparations. Praise the Lord.
