HEY GOP!!!!
Did you come for High Voltage this thursday?? If you didnt, you missed an awesome 2h session of praising, worshipping, tesimonial sharing and praying. Prayer is important in our everyday lives so do try to make it for the next High Voltage in February!
Anyway, Aunty Aye Lan shared an AWESOME message about Honour and Respect! No she did not only share about honouring your families but those around you and above all, our Father in heaven! Honour means to value, to treat something as gold. Respect is giving something or someone a sense of worth and esteem.
[Mark 6:5]
Jesus was restrained and COULD not do any mighty works in Nazareth, His OWN hometown. He was without honour and was looked down upon by His own honetown. Because of that, His deeds were limited and He could not do anything without the faith of the people, who were expecting a greater leader.
Which is why it is very important to honour people. When we honour people, we in turn are honouring God. When we acknowledge the people we see in our everyday lives, it makes a difference to their lives and God deserves all honour!
[Luke 2:25-32]
Jesus was only 30 days old when Simeon, a devout Christian, rushed to honour Him! And yet when Jesus was 30 years old, His hometown had turned their backs against Him!
[Matthew 8:5-13]
Only when we have the faith to know that God can do anything, He would do exceedingly and abundantly! All we have to do is honour and respect Him and the easiest way we show someone that we honour them is by obedience. Do we show our parents that we honour them by obeying their requests?
There are many ways we can honour God
1) Honour God by doing what He likes [1 Samuel 2:30]
All God wants is us. Give Him ALL of our time and prioritize Him above everything else in our agenda.
2) Honour His presence
Give Him our full attention during service or during Quiet Time
3) Honour His Word
Read the Bible everyday!
4) Honour is people
Honour the people who has placed before you as your leaders like your cell leaders and your overseers. Maybe even your friends or classmates and teachers.
Remember that we have to be happy and cheerful even in our most tired and oppressed days because we have to be the change and the difference in our schools. Honour your friends and teachers and show them that having Christ makes a difference. So GOPers, go out this week to bless your schools.
Loves.
A Generation called to be deployed into ministry,
building the house of God.
Our Generation, Our Responsibility

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.

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.
