Dear brothers and sisters and friends out there,

Have you asked yourself what counts at the end of the day? What is most important in life? Is it money, wealth, status, husband and wife relationship, having children, respect, love, forgiveness, mission, etc? My deepest reflection has to me to conclude that those must not be the ultimate things we pursue on earth. Those things and values will end when we leave this world. However, those things and values become very meaning when we live our lives and define our lives in terms of Christ. When we live for Christ, everything becomes so significant. What count at the end of the day is Jesus Christ, our Lord.

I find that my life without Christ is so meaningless. My prayers, mission, evangelism, husband and wife relationship, preaching, parents-children relationship, are meaningless if there is no Christ in my life.

I pray that you have Jesus Christ in your life.

A faithful disciple of Christ,

Celebrating Our 20th Anniversary Magazine

Grace Methodist Church - Celebaring 20th Anniversary Magazine is now available Free for its members. Please come and get a copy.

Preface from the publication:-

2008 - It is with God's Grace that Grace Methodist Church, an English Speaking Church, is celebrating its 20th anniversary.

The Church can only be a developing and growing church when all the districts provide support from the outside. And within the church walls the congregation together with the serving pastors must be commended for bringing it to its glorious level today.

Looking back the Church was on borrowed premises in the Mei Ang Church in Kwangtun Road in 1989. We did not have a real home then. But the English speaking congregation was very united and had a great LCEC. Thus within a few years the Grace Methodist Church was constructed at Jalan Baiduri 6. The church was finally completed in July 5th 1999. Praise the Lord.

At Church is like a tree. As it grows upwards to reach the sky the roots must drink water and the trunks and branches must be strong to withstand the storms. The members of the church are like the roots and the leaders the branches. The Pastor is like the trunk. When a tree grows beautifully and huge in a forest or in a park people can see how grand it is.

But without the love and sunshine, the rain and the soil provided by God the tree will be stunted. Thus as a congregation we need the spiritual food from God and the sharing of love with each other. We must support each other as well as our church leaders and our Pastors. Like a tree we need to weather the storms and the strong winds, the flood and the dangers of the enviroment. But with our faith in God we can grow strong and tall.

This committe hopes that the Grace Methodist Church will carry on its good work. Together we will move forward to celebrate another great anniversary. This magazine is also a token of appreciation to all who have in one way or another helped GMC to grow.

Glory to God.

Dear brothers and sisters and friends,

In the last 3 weeks I was not able to preach you because on 19th July I preach at Mei Ann Methodist Church, Miri for her indigenous people Sunday; then on 26th July, I preached at Eng Kwan Methodist Church, Bintulu, for the same purpose; on 2nd August, I fell sick and could not preach. Praise the Lord I could preach on 9th August on Thanksgiving Sunday.

When I was in Bintulu, I attended the Indigenous People Night on 25th July, I saw about 150 indigenous people worshipping with the chinese in Gloria Methodist church. This church is now having at least 80 indigenous people children. This is a very good examle of a Mandarin speaking church making disciples among the indigenous people. They really obey God to make disciples of all nations. Eventually, they asked me to fly again on 7th August to train them on how to form an adult congregation of Bahasa Malaysia service. With so many children, we now have the great privilege to invite their parents to come to our BM service. These people are very near the church and Gloria is very sensitive to God’s leading to reach out to them.

God bless.
