Faithful to the end (Phyllis Robertson, 1923-2007)
Posted on December 5, 2007 | Filed Under News
“Both Roy and Phyllis are spiritual grandparents of thousands of people who have been blessed, touched, ministered to, discipled, equipped and sent out to the nations. We thank God for their obedience to the Lord, availability, sacrifice, example and ministry to us, and among us. They have not only left a spiritual legacy to their children and grandchildren, but have also left a tremendous spiritual legacy to their spiritual children, grandchildren and descendants in Singapore and among the nations,” Thomas Chua, National Director (The Singapore Navigators)

In memory of Mrs. Phyllis Raelene O’Connor Hapke Robertson

I met the first Navigator missionary couple
Roy and Phyllis Robertson in 1962
Phyllis set the pace for my impression
Of what it means to be a wife of a Navigator
Always kind and gentle
Never self-absorbed
Served with love and patience
Mindful of one’s needs
Never overbearing
Never complaining
Always encouraging
Always affirming

24-hour 21-day prayer to start 2008
Posted on December 4, 2007 | Filed Under News
The Navigators staff and labourers welcome 2008 with a prayer retreat from January 8 to 10, and in a 24-hour 21-day prayer chain from January 11 to February 1, 2008.
Pray with us as we ask God to help us fulfil his calling for us to advance the gospel of Jesus and his kingdom into the nations through spiritual generations of labourers living and discipling among the lost.

Kingdom
Posted on December 4, 2007 | Filed Under News, Testimonies
One day a man I was talking to confessed how he was filling the emptiness in his life with all kinds of hobbies. Life loses its meaning when we are not living out God’s purposes for us.
The reverse is also true: that we can be so involved in the kingdom of God, in the King’s business that we forget the King.
What drew me to the Navigators some 40 years ago has the fact that they were people who knew God. They knew the Word, they knew God; and I wanted to know God. So I came around.
Together with knowing God, I was also so enthused with the vision and passion of the ministry. I became so involved with the kingdom that in a sense I forgot the King. Not that I forgot God, but I minored on the King and majored on the kingdom.
