Church Affirms CBSI Coordinator

leicester0112On Wednesday 26 November, the Bishop of the Anglican Church in West Malaysia collated Dr. S.K.Teoh as an Hon. Canon of the Cathedral Church of St. Mary’s the Virgin in Kuala Lumpur. This is in recognition of the many years of Dr. Teoh’s faithful service to the Church.  Dr. Teoh was responsible for opening the way for a CBSI Class at the YMCA, Ipoh. He serves as the Coordinator of this area and also leads a small group and is being trained to be a Teaching Leader. His dear wife, Nancy is also a CBSI class small group leader. Both husband and wife are sold out in the teaching and studying of God’s word. We praise God for raising the Teohs to take leadership in the Ipoh area.

On behalf of CBSI Malaysia we extend our warmest congratulations to Dr. Teoh and Nancy and pray that their love for God’s word will never weaver.

New Chinese Class!

Praise the Lord! A new Chinese Class will commence soon in Ipoh on Thursday evenings with Sheerah Lee as the Teaching Leader and Sandi Lee as the SGL. They have also decided to begin with the Book of James. Please pray for this class.This will be the first Chinese class here in West Malaysia. I pray that this will be the starting of Chinese classes in West Malaysia. All Glory to the Lord.

Please pray that the translations of the Chinese material will be forth coming. Pray that a pool of good translators will be found for the Asia Pacific region.

Ipoh Class Keeps growing!

After Yoke Fong and Fred conducted the Introductory and Small Group leaders’ training on 23-24 May 2008, the leaders caught the vision and excitement. 24 men and women, pastors and leaders turned up for the training.

The Ipoh Class was launched on Wednesday 2nd July 2008 at the YMCA,  with 65 members and at the 3rd lesson (yesterday), there was almost 90. This class is growing to the astonishment of the leaders in the city. They are studying the Book of James. Fred is acting as the teaching leader for this first class.

As National Director Fred has been praying for  sometime for God’s timing to start a class in this city. We want to thank the Lord for opening the door and raising up a number of capable leaders under the leadership of Ven.Steven Abbarow.

We are talking about starting a Ladies Group on Thursday mornings. This is to minister to the many housewives who could come out for a couple of hours in the day while their children are at school. Please pray that God will speak so some of the Ladies in the Wednesday night class to take on this challenge.
