Dear Friends,

Greetings in the blessed name of Jesus!

Hi! How are you doing? I pray that this week’s Pastor Writes finds you blessed and overflowing with God’s blessings. The last 2 weeks had been very exciting as we saw 1401 and 1461 people in church respectively. The growth has been really encouraging. And with all the Friends’ Nights in full-swing, we are seeing more and more new friends coming to our church. It is a good thing seeing new friends coming to our church but it is quite another to assimilate them to be a part of our spiritual family. Church, I want to encourage all of us to build real and meaningful relationships with them. Be genuinely interested in them. Find ways to build bridges into their lives and be a blessing to them. Don’t just focus on the numbers. It is a good thing to have a lot of friends coming to our church but it is pointless if they do not come back again. In the last couple of years, we have seen our attendance soared beyond the thousands especially during our Big Days! However, not too many of them are contained.

This year, I want us to re-strategize. I do not want us to only focus on the quantity but also the quality. And in order to achieve that, we need to activate our Caring System and maintain a consistent discipleship lifestyle. This is a lifestyle where we get involved in our members’ lives, challenge their value system and help them to realize a better way of living with Christ. It is not automatic, neither is it easy. It requires a lot of hard work and love! A lot of patience and tons of commitment!

Church, let us do things differently this year. Let us go the extra mile in building the kingdom of God.

Your friend,

KEV
