HEY GOP!

Hope that you didn't miss this week's evangelistic service! Sarah Lin preached about SPIRITUAL WARFARE part 2, mainly about [Ephesians 6:10-12].

We are fighting a spiritual battle and thus require weapons not like our usual swords and shield but by those that we can use in the spiritual realm.

Our weapons are:
1) The blood of Jesus!

Jesus' death was a spiritual battle itself. Jesus could have chosen not to die but had listened to His Father's will in the end. Just like how every decision that we make is a spiritual battle between our will and God's will for our lives.
Also, Jesus' blood saves us, heals us, cleanses us and sets us free.

2)Armour of God
We have to stand firm and hold our ground with the armour of God-

a) The Belt of Truth
Knowing the truth sets us free

b) The Breastplate of righteousness
Acting on the truth

c) The Helmet of Salvation
Protecting our minds and cleansing our thoughts with full focus on Jesus

d) The Shield of Faith
Being at the right place, at the right time, doing the right thing

e) The Shoes of the Gospel of Peace
Bringing good news wherever we go with the Word of God to calm thing down

f) The Sword of the Spirit
Our only attacking weapon, the Word of God which contains all the promises God has made to us

3) Prayer and praise

-Praise is declaring God's might and strength!
-Our prayers are always heard by God even if His answers are no because God knows best! [Jeremiah 29:12-14, Daniel 10:12]
-We have to pray at all times and at every occasion [Ephesians 6:18]
-No one understands tongues but God [1 Corinthians 14:2]
-Prayer diverts bad situations

Why do we have to be equipped?
Because Satan came to kill, steal and destroy

but we have God as our hope =)

THINGS WE CAN DO!
1) Pray for our leaders!
Satan knows our source of knowledge and would be able to make us vulnerable if the leaders are weak.
2) Support our leaders and be prepared at all times!
Numbers do not equal to strength. Quality is better than quantity thus we have to be mentally prepared for battle
[Judges 7] 22000 soldiers were cut down to the top 300 soldiers
3) We have to be accountable to our leaders!
We need the covering of our church because we do not stand alone. Together as one, can we take down more enemies

So GOP, remember to keep persevering on and do not forget to help out your leaders where neccessary. Keep praying and reaching out to your friends, don't give up because you have the whole GOP behind you all the way. You have God's hand over your lives so trust in Him and be perpared for battle =)

Loves.

This is because curious people not only want to hear about God and His people; they really want to see for themselves what’s going on. So VAM is set up, because we want to let people know our passion for Christ, and deep love for God and what is happening in GoP.

Dedi-K-ted is the name we go by - Dancing Evangelists who are Disciplined, and have an Intimate relationship with the King, and we're living in the Truth EveryDay. That title alone will most probably speak for itself.

We cater to a wide range of dance styles from hip hop to b-boying to street jazz, and no formal dance background is required. All we need from you is the interest in dance, a heart for serving God and of course the ability to enjoy yourself at the same time. So if you want to impact a generation out there for God using dance as a form of language, this is the ministry for you!

Ushers, like how the name suggest we usher people, welcoming them into the house of God. We tend to be the very first person you see before you enter the service hall.

Here in ushers ministry,we hope to bring joy to all who comes in, to give them a smile in the worst day and a warm hand shake with much love. To put it simply,we want carry God's joy and love and spread it to everyone else.

Other than that, we provide direction to all the people who are new and lost or ensure that they are going the right place for service. This helps to ensure that they feel a sense of belonging and not helpless, wanted and not ignored.

And of course,passing the offering bags and giving out materials for sermon or events are also part of our wonderful ushering job. :)

The Logistics and Atmosphere Unit (L.A Unit) was started in 2003 to help connect all the other ministries of CFC together, acting as a “Middle Man” to them. Currently, the L.A Unit provides logistics and manpower services to both GOP and YA, especially during events and parties.

The L.A Unit is divided into 3 different departments, all of which are inter-dependant on one another, which are Admin and Accounts, Manpower and Security.

Departments

• Admin and Accounts
The Admin and Accounts department handles all paper work, catalogues and statistic(acting as the statistic supervisor and the researchers for the Youth Group they play a very important role in helping us understand where we are, have been and is going.)

• Manpower
The Manpower department does all the ground works, from setting up of decorations for an event to clearing up after the even and also for any form of physica labours that CFC or the Church requires help with.

Sound

Having an almighty God gracing our service every week and the bonus of a wonderful music team on the frontline to usher us through the gates of praise, youth service is often the place anyone would want to be at on a Saturday evening.

While the music team's role is to usher the congregation through the gates of praise, the sound ministry is hidden behind the scenes and is responsible for delivering the message and the music with clarity to the congregation.

Your job is mainly to provide and help out in the technical areas throughout the service.
