Study Ephesians in Miri

We are please to announce that the new CBSI Class in Miri is studying Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians. It is a 6 week study helping us to prepare ourselves for the times of persecution. How timely this is!.

Please contact bro Augustine Saidi – 019-885-4099 for the details.

Class in Miri has started!

We want to praise God that a new class has started in Miri on 6 August at St. Columba’s Church, Miri. There are more then 50 attending the class. A few members have come as far as Brunei. We praise God for this. We are praying that those from Brunei will be challenged and be led to start a class there too. Please pray for bro. Augustine and Rev Alfred as they coordinate this class. Our national director has been travelling to Miri from KL every Thursday to help in doing the summary lecture. This will give them an idea of how it is done and presented.

He is hoping that there will be another Teaching Leaders training for those called to be TLs.

Pray for Miri!

In July a new class will commence in Miri, a town in that state of Sarawak, East Malaysia. Our National Director at the invitation of  the church did a small group and teaching leaders training in May. There were about 25 who were trained. It was a very exciting 2 days. Many who came to the training were pleased that we were being equipped to lead and facilitate Bible study groups in a different way. Those who are going to be teaching leaders, felt that the session on Lecture preparation was very helpful. It gave them a new approach to study the Bible.

Do pray for the Coordinators, Rev Alfred Jabu and bro Augustine Saidi as they prepare to launch the Class in Miri. Pray as  invitations are sent to the local churches, that they too will be able to grow deeper in God’s word.

Happy 80th. Birthday

giving honor to God

We want to praise God for the 80 years that He has given to “aunty Glo” one of our Teaching leaders at the  PJ class. Some of the small groups leaders were invited to the party to celebrate this great day. There were some of her former students, former teachers and long time friends and family also present at the occasion.  Our National Director was given the privilege to pray for her and give the Benediction.

We pray that God will continue to give her many more years as she continues to serve him faithfully.

HAPPY 80th. BIRTHDAY AUNTY GLO!

Tamil Class completes Study on James!

We praise God that the Class in Selayang which began our first Tamil study, completed their study on Monday 20 October 2014. The attendance has been consistent with over 25 each week and in 3 small groups. I take this opportunity to congratulate them for their commitment and eagerness in wanting to study God’s word. I thank the small group leaders for their leadership in the small groups. Well done brothers and sister.

To bring the study to a close, the group had a supper fellowship prepared after the last lesson. It was indeed a blessing to be part of this class.

1st Tamil CBSI Class

Great fun

It was indeed an exciting Monday on 11August 2014. It was the beginning of the first Tamil CBSI class in Malaysia. We are grateful to St. Matthew’s Church, Selayang for willing to be the host church. 25 people were present and there were a couple of Pastors too who had come to study the Word.  We praise God for this and look forward to more people to join this group.

If you have friends in the Kepong/Selayang area and who would like to join a good Bible please ask them to contact Rev Jesvinder Singh 016-636-7722 (jesvindersingh@yahoo.com)

He has since been looking for a church and  a Bible Study to attend to. We was invited to the CBSI class and was pleased that he came. Let’s pray that God will put a thirst in the hearts of many others to find a good BIble Study where they will be confident, cared for and safe. So start introducing your CBSI classes to others. Let us see God work!
