First Lesson

Photos and story by James Wong.
Following last Sunday's opening sermon "What On Earth Am I Here For?" by our Pastor and Campaign Spiritual Leader Rev Law Hui Seng, the first Small Group commenced on Tuesday morning at Piasau Lorong 8. Conducted in Mandarin, the home study was lead by Rev Law. Responding to special requests, we have two Groups conducting lessons in Mandarin; the rest are in English.
The Small Groups are hosted in various zones throughout Miri and held during different days and time to suit the convenience of the participants. Last night (Thursday) there was a session at Pujut 5. The group was lead by two young and capable adults who are deeply anchored in Christ; Glynis and Yau Ming. Why two leaders? For we know,

"Two are better off than one, because together they can work more effectively. If one of them falls down, the other can help him up... Two people can resist an attack that would defeat one person alone. A rope made of three cords is hard to break." - Ecclesiastes 4:9 (TEV)

This group of friends means a lot to us because five of them are new to our church and they are teenagers and Curtin undergraduates. Praise the Lord for bringing them to our lives!
