Youtubies Tribes

Posted on February 18, 2010 | Filed Under Discipleship, Evangelism, Ministries, News, People, Testimonies

“I’m a youth worker in this strange land where the young people of this land communicate with a strange tribal language…I struggle how to connect, how to communicate that I care and only want to help.They seem hopeless and lost…But I decided to try and try again. Many times I feel like a fool…but I’m not giving up! My reward is that if even one of them is saved it’s worth the effort.”

OMG*, Desire!

Posted on November 6, 2009 | Filed Under Discipleship, Evangelism, Ministries, News

What do you desire most in life? And what does God have to do with our desires?

Sign up now for the Navteen’s annual training camp!
7 - 11 December 2009
Christ Church Secondary School
20 Woodlands Drive 17 Singapore 737924

 

“OMG (Only My God), Desire! is a camp that aims to help teens grow in their desire for God in two ways. First, by knowing how much God desires for us, and that we can and should respond in kind by loving God. Second, by learning how to deal with various temptations and things that the world has that distract us from God. Prayerfully, we hope that teens will learn how sustain their desire for God even after the camp itself is over.” - Cliffton Tay Xiang Rui

What it’s like to be a homemaker?

Posted on November 1, 2009 | Filed Under Discipleship, Evangelism, News, People, Testimonies

My daughter En turned 11 last August this year. She invited a few of her classmates over. It was very tiring (by the end of her six-hour long celebration) but also highly enjoyable as my husband and I joined in the activities with all her friends. We even went knocking on some of our neighbours doors to pass them food and goodie bags for the children.

Birthday celebrations are great opportunities to bond with extended families, friends and even neighbours. It is also an excellent way to meet up with your children’s friends-to ‘check out’ who they are hanging out with. We know both our girls’ schoolmates pretty well, many of their parents too when we send and fetch them to and from school. As peer influence becomes greater as children grow older, we parents need to adapt as well. I do encourage En to invite friends over to visit (up to a certain timing during school days) or to do projects.

August also marks my 11th year as a ‘homemaker’. Quite a few young mothers have asked me what are some of my struggles as a stay home mum.

Unlike my early years when I struggled with issues like ‘restlessness’, ‘aimless-ness’, ’status-less’, ‘MC-less’, ‘leave-less’, ’salary-less’ and ‘appreciation-less’, these days I struggle more with boredom and routine-ness. Not that I have nothing to occupy my days with but doing the exact same things daily can be rather tedious and frankly, boring.

Spiritual formation

Posted on July 30, 2009 | Filed Under Discipleship, Evangelism, News

 

People wonder what is spiritual formation? It’s just about having an inner life with God. It’s about learning how to live with the companionship of God all the time. It’s about arranging my life so that God can transform me, living in union with God and letting God change me from the inside.

This is very different from what most people do. Most people just try to do the good things, the good Christians are supposed to do. And they feel overwhelmed and burdened and the Christian life just becomes this terrible duty that they would frankly like to offload sometimes. And that’s not really what it’s about. It’s about getting up in the morning and asking God what is it I need to know about you today? Asking God to show me what is my next step? Saying, “Oh, God you showed me yesterday that I’m not a person that really has deep compassion. What is it you would lead me today to become a more compassionate person? What is it you would lead me today to do on a regular basis to become a more compassionate person?

NUS Navigators India 2008

Bengaluru, 10-16 June 2008

India was a time for me to focus on other people, to step out of my comfort zone, and be humble. The ten days were a great learning experience and I hope to apply them from now on. — Suyintha Supramaniam, mission tripper
