We have just been informed that with immediate effect, all classes using the CBSI material will need to sign a Covenant. This is needed because of the copy rights law in the US. This is good working ethics, however must never hinder the growth of classes or getting people into the Word.
A training for Teaching Leaders and potential TLs will take place from 24-25 September 2010. There will be about 12 to be trained and God willing about 2 or 3 from Sarawak and Sabah will be able to join those from West Malaysia. Please pray that we will be able to find the finance to run this training and especially to bring the Leaders from the various parts of the country to Kuala Lumpur.
It is also hoped that at this training we will have some who will also be fluent in Mandarin, Tamil and Bahasa Malaysia. The hope is that a number of other than English language classes evolved.
Preparations are under way for the class in Klang to begin in July. This time round it may be on a Monday night. We are at the moment talking to our members regarding the change. This will allow Fred to do the teaching again for them. This time round the assistant teaching leaders will take a fair bit of the teaching responsibility.
Look out for the details in the next few days.
It is very encouraging to note the attendance has been consistent. They are in to the 4 Lesson of 1 John. They are already planning to do another 6 week study before they close for Christmas. If you have friends in Johore who will benefit by these classes, please give them out contacts.
One of the assistant teaching leaders, Tan Meng Poo is to be ordained a minister in the Anglican Church on 2nd July 2010 at St. Barnabas church in Klang. Please pray for him as he he takes this step for his life. Pray also for his family for the adjustments they have to make. God Bless you Meng Poo and Congratulations.
