DISCIPLESHIP & NURTURE
Asia is the cradle to some of the world's oldest religions: Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism and Hinduism. These religious traditions are still very 'alive' and important to millions of Asians. As Christians living in Asia, it is our mission to engage and dialogue with people of other faiths, so as to build bridges for the proclamation of the gospel in Asia. Despite living in such a multi-religious society, many Asian Christians still have superficial knowledge of the religious beliefs of their neighbours.
The aim of this course is to introduce students to Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism and Tribal religions, and consider how we may engage these traditions meaningfully in the 21st century. Topics included in this course are the method for the study of world religions and a biblical theology of religions through an interaction of selected religious texts. Throughout the course, practical implications for gospel and culture, evangelism and inter-religious dialogue, the destiny of the unevangelized and the mission of the local church will be also explored.
Dates: Fridays, 16 Aug , 30 Aug, 13, 27 Sep (Guided tour to places of worship), 11 Oct (Visit to Harmony Centre), 25 Oct, 8 Nov
Time: 7.15pm-10.00pm

This retreat is organized to encourage parent-child bonding, to have fun and learn together. This event provides a platform to allow parents to support their child aged 11 - 14 years old in their transition into being a teenager.
Topics covered include self-esteem, sexual identity, self-leadership and social media influence.

Celebration Saturday is an annual celebration that the Youth Ministry holds to celebrate who God is and what He has done.

As a church, we invite you to be part of the lives of our youths and join in this celebration. Having walked further in this journey, your insights can enrich their lives as you take the opportunity to get to know each other on a deeper and more personal level, strengthening our intergenerational bonds.
