Christian Hospitality a lost virtue

Aunty Glo as she is fondly called, is one of the teaching leaders at the PJ Class. As she gave the lecture on Acts chapter 16, she reminded the class that the new church that began in the home of Lydia was result of prayer and Christian hospitality. She challenged the class to bring back this great gift to the Christian home. She noted that women played a significant role in this area. She also brought to the attention of the class that Timothy’s future Christian ministry was shaped by his mother and grandmother. It is now our turn to prepare the young for the Lord’s ministry.

Classes Resume

Most classes have resumed the week after the Easter break. It was wonderful to see members coming back eager for another semester of study. At the PJ Class, Assistant Teacher Leader, Esther Richards took the summary lecture on Acts 6 & 7.
We praise God that He is raising up more men and women who are able to handle the Word of God faithfully. Amen.

God is So Wonderful!

Some of the Bahasa Malaysia speaking Christians who attended the PJ CBSI class were moved at the depth and quality of the CBSI Bible studies that they wanted to invite their BM speaking friends to also experience these studies. On Tuesday 22 March a group of Bahasa Malaysia Christians attended their first class. They are studying together with the PJ Class the Book of Acts.

One of the Pastors took the challenge to translate the material in Bahasa Malaysia and used it in the class. However, they all came back together for the Lecture. Pray that God will raise up a person to even give the lectures in Bahasa Malaysia in the coming days.

ACTS to commence @ PJ Class

The PJ Class begins on February 22 at 8.00pm at St. Paul’s Church, PJ. Registration is on and please call Thomas Kong to confirm you attendance in the class.

This year the PJ Class has decided to study the Book of Acts. It is a 30 week course and we look forward to a great time of learning. The Book of Acts is really God working in the early Church and we see the conversion of the Pharisee Saul to become a servant of the Lord Jesus Christ. A great motivation for those in Mission.

See You Next Year

It was a joyous and yet a little sad occasion when class members bid each other “good byes” or “see you soon” as the class in PJ came to a close. Studying the Book of Romans for 30 weeks has truly bought the members into a deeper relationship with one another. Thus the sense of missing one another was but what Christian love is all about. Not to worry we will pick up from where we left. Happy holidays class and God’s Blessings on you.

Board member Celebrates Birthday!

Mr. Lew Weng Ho, a committed member of the PJ Class and also a CBSI Malaysia Board member chose to celebrate his birthday with the class as they completed their study on Paul’s Letter to the Romans. The final lecture was delivered by the Rev Fred David. The Birthday celebration was an apt ending to a great time of studying.

Classes and small groups are becoming close to the hearts of members and in many occasions these have become member’s “families” AMEN.

Bible Study is new to me!

Soo Chin hails from Southern China and became a Christian in China. However she testifies that her Christian growth has only now began. She attributes this to her joining the CBSI Class in PJ. Ever since she joined the class Soo Chin has been a “regular”.

She says that she never knew what Bible Study is when she was in China. But having been introduced to it through her CBSI class in PJ, she just loves to read and study the Word. Asked what she found so exciting, Soo Chin replied that the self study, Class discussion and above all the lecture given by the Teaching leader.

We hope to train her to lead a class and when she returns to her homeland she will have a ministry and will bring others to a deeper relationship to God through the Word. God is so Good.

ARCHBISHOP visits PJ Class

The Archbishop of Bangladesh, the Rt. Rev Paul Sarker paid a visit to the PJ Class. He and his wife sat in on the leaders council and the later joined some of the small groups. They also attended the lecture. Asked of their experience, they said’ ” we don’t have such bible studies in our country. It would be good to have a group in Dhaka. ” Rev Fred will further explore the opportunity when he visits Bangladesh in October and March next year. Please pray for “Open Doors”,
