Dear brothers and sisters and friends out there,

Today, GMC is celebrating our Parents’ Sunday. Praise the Lord we have parents of our Sunday School children joining the service. The whole service was packed. We had about 80 chidren singing obeying our parents. We also gave out presents to brothers and sisters who are more 60 years old.

I also preached a message on “Teaching your children to fear God". Please refer to GMC website to read it.

I also took the opportunity to publicise for 6As parenting. The 6As are acceptance, appreciation, affection, availability, accountability, authority. The district commission of social concerns is organizing it at Hwai En Methodist Church, on 8th August, 2009, 1.30pm to 9.30pm, on Saturday. We have limited spaces for 50 persons only. If you are interested, pls email me, I can pass you the registration form.

God bless.

Dear brothers and sisters,

Praise the Lord for the successful social concerns project carried out at Tabika Perpaduan, Permyjaya by our church today. We closely with Permyjaya Methodist Church, Tudan Preaching Centre, Diabetes Association, and Optical Association. Our church had sent 30 volunteers to work closely with the other churches and associations. This is really Jesus at work through us. Thanks to all the brothers and sisters to who worked so hard. May God bless you.

The response was good and thank God for the good weather. When I was there for about 1 hour, I saw people queing up to see the eye specialist. I saw Malays, Ibans, Chinese, young and old, christians and non-christians. We manage to entertain 300 plus people of all races. 44 medical cases need further treatment; 87 pairs of glasses were given out; 317 blood tests were done for diabetes.

Today, at the morning service when we did Christian Soldier Sunday (a day we remember the works done by pastors and full time worker) , I was very encouraged by a statement made by brother Paul Wong, the lay leader of GMC. He said that in past, GMC church members tend to ask what pastor could do for them, now, they said what they could do for Christ. The change in attitude towards pastor and Christ is an excellent example of life transformation experienced by church leaders and members. I strongly believe this has to do with our prayers; more close fellowship; the 9 month of disciple ministry which we have been doing about 4 years now.

Nowadays, praise the Lord, I am enjoying my ministry in GMC even there are challenges and stress I need to face everyday.

Faithful disciple of Jesus,
Pastor Law

Dear brothers, sisters and friends out there,

I pray that you are excited to make disciples in your capacity as a disciple of Christ. Live a life of impact and help others to become disciples of Jesus. You only have one chance to live. You only live one time. So, treasure your life on earth by making disciples.

Praise the Lord I will be leading a team of Mei Ann Methodist Church members (6 of them and 1 from SIB, a photographer) and disciples of Jesus to Belaga for Penan mission (Long Singu, Long Tangau, Luar), 7th to 9th July.

Praise the Lord for Trinity Methodist Church will be leading a team of 7 persons to go for Belaga Mission in 7th to 9th Dec, 2009. Rev Dr Wong Kee Sing will be the team leader. They responded to my sermon on 31st May and eventually, the church mission committee made a decision to go.

I have preached on prayer today. My points of application are praying constantly and praying during critical moments in our lives. You may like to read my sermon in this website.

A Disciple of Jesus,

Dear brothers, sisters and friends out there,

I have just come back from Sibu Methodist Convention. One powerful strategy I learn from the convention is about the Blue Ocean strategy. It is simply to go where there is no competition. For me, there can be 2 applications on it. Help the poor and make disciples among them. Nobody will compete to help the poor and make them disciples.

In the last weekend, I conducted the marriage renewal seminar for about 40 indigenous brothers and sisters at Trinity Methodist Church BM ministry. Most of whom are husbands and wives. On Sunday morning, I preached at the TMC BM service, we helped 24 indigenous married couples to make marriage covenant before God. They had never done it before. This helped to stablize their marriages. I see these indigenous people becoming stronger and stronger disciples for Jesus.

For the second service, I preached at TMC English service. I challenge them to respond to God’s calling to do mission at Belaga. 5 Persons responded. Pray that Kuching TMC will send a team to go to Belaga.

Today, in GMC I preached the challenging message of taking on the commission of Jesus to make disciples of all nations. You may like the whole sermon in this website.

Disciple of Jesus,
