Cell Group Chinese New Year Visitation

Instead of the usual cell group gathering @ NTU, we're going to celebrate CNY together through informal gatherings and visitations.

Team U3, please confirm with Ken by tonight if your house is open for the cell group to visit (Saturday is the proposed day, but if your family prefer other days, do inform Ken and we'll look into making arrangements!).

*If you need a time extension to confirm, please let Ken know also. Thanks!

Chinese New Year Rally
Date: 16 & 17 February 2008, Saturday & Sunday
Venue: Harvest Care Centre Level 4
Time: 4 pm (Saturday); 10.30 am (Sunday)

In view of the coming Chinese New Year, we're having a special service. As you go about your Chinese New Year visitations, let's be intentional in inviting our loved ones. Let's not forget that the Lord has something for them this festive season!

Annnual Church Camp
Camp fees are as follows:
$280 for students; $295 for adults

It's going to be a great time @ KL from 9th to 13th June 2008! Get ready for what God has and start by taking actions to save up your ang bao money for the camp!

What is your mission in life?

Every person and object exist to fulfill their purpose.
A tea cup is made to hold tea, a house is built to shelter man - we do not mix up their role and function, else they lose their meaning and purpose of their existence.

In the same way, when we do not discover our purpose of our existence or mission, we will find that we become easily distracted and distracted in life. We cannot focus in what we do because we cannot fit ourselves in what we do fully.

For cell group this week, we talk about our mission as a generation with a "different spirit" - to INFLUENCE.

In Matthew 5:13-18 , Jesus called us the salt and light of the world. Both salt and light are agents of influence.

Salt influences by...
- giving taste
- preserving
- creating thirst

Light influences by...
- dispelling darkness
- revealing what is there and giving guidance

Take time to reflect upon this (even if you've been @ cell group this week):

Look at the following aspects in your life: speech and conduct, studies/work, relationships, passion, values and conviction.

Which of these do you see yourself making a positive influence in your home, school and church. Why?

Which are the areas do you not see yourself a positive influence e.g gossip, vulgarities, BGR, wordly desires etc? Why is it so? What will you do to increase your "saltiness in these areas? (Be practical!)

Share with someone! Let's be a brother/sister keeper in seeing ourselves fulfilling our mission to influence and make a difference in our campus (NTU!!!), workplace, home and church! Remember, your life influence. The choices you make will determine if you are a positive one or a negative one! Let's encourage one another to make the right choices.

Thanks

Hi people,

Thanks for the wonderful songs, present and cards that you have gave to me. I appreciate it very much. My prayer is to see that all of you made an impact in NTU or in the marketplaces that God had placed you in. Dare to be radical for God....

I believe you will be bless by the labour of your service (evangelism, connecting with friends... etc) to God in NTU. The Harvest in NTU is plentiful. At the end of the day, we all want to hear the Lord say, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'.

Continue to trust God ya....

veNTUring with God this year 2008

edveNTUre also has NTU in it.. will we want to veNTUre with God to see our campus coming to know Jesus n be disciples of Jesus? and really have a real adveNTUre with God this semester? Ya, let's not miss what God has for us this year. I believe we are placed in NTU not just to get a good degree, but really to put God first, putting the mission of God first. Dont just study, play, but have the fear of the Lord in our lives, obey God.. Lets veNTUre with God!!! Go! Go! Go!

Christian Influence

Hola bros & sis!
This is gonna be an awesome channel to encourage and strengthen each other as we go forth to infuse our campus with the light of Jesus. In unity and faithfulness in doing the small things, God will bring us through to claim the land of NTU for His glory!

Watch this!

Here's the link to a video on YouTube that Justin suggested that we should watch. Let it encourage you! We just need to avail ourselves and God can use us in ANY way to be a powerful vessel in bringing people to Christ!
