Special Message from Chai Hwa

hi all cymers,
this sun is our pledge sunday.if you don't already know, the methodist church's financial year runs from aug-jul. hence, this sunday is the first sunday of the new financial year.the finance committee will be making a presentation of the budget for the year.

i'll like to encourage all of you to make a pledge.although it is still the same, amount wise, if we don't pledge but just give an offering each sunday, the pledge serves many purposes:
1. a pledge is an act of faith to trust in God's provision for all our needs for the year ahead
2. a pledge is a commitment to put God first in our finances at the start of the (financial) year
3. a pledge reminds us to depend on God for all our needs and helps us 'seek Him first'
4. a pledge reminds us that all we have is from God and we're mere stewards of all that we have
5. a pledge helps the church to make wise decisions about the finances that God's given to us
6. a pledge instils in us a discipline to honour God in our finances

so i think it's critical that we learn from young to pledge. if we develop this discipline from a young age, we learn to align our hearts to what's truly important in life, for Jesus taught that where our treasure is, there our hearts will be also.

particularly, i'd like to encourage us to pledge 10% of our pocket allowance our parents give us each month. although it is not compulsory to give 10% of what we have, it is a God-given guideline and we should seek to honour Him by making it a discipline and habit. i understand it is not easy, as many of you don't already receive much. but let's learn to be thankful for all we have, and learn to trust that God knows our needs and will give us what we need.

God is a God who will NEVER short-change us!!so, please prayerfully consider how much you want to pledge. all that needs to be done this sunday is to fill up a pledge card and offer it during the offering. do email me or call me should you have any questions about pledging, tithing (giving 10%) or any other financial related issues.

thanks much.

BiG,

Hey guys,

I just wanted to say that I'm so proud of all of you.
Over the last 6 months each of you have grown so much, it's incredible.
All credit goes to the leaders- Mel, Andrea, Bin and Cynthia, and also to you guys.

I can see such maturity, especially spiritually, it's just awesome.
Continue to grow in Christ, and go to church every Sunday expecting to learn something new, expecting God to speak to you directly.
I hope to see the CG grow, esp in numbers and after today's prayer walk, I'm sure you all want to see your all friends in the community get saved too.

So c'mon step out of your comfort zones, and get your friends to church and CG!
Trust me, seeing someone receiving Christ is just the best feeling in the world.

Ok I'm off to Melbourne, thanks for being the cool kids.
Peace out.
