MEN’S FELLOWSHIP
Introduction
Men’s Fellowship (MF) is a gathering
of men filled with passion to see other men find salvation, inner peace
and fulfillment in life through Jesus Christ.
We are men committed to daily Christ-like living
through a transformed life by the guiding influence and empowerment of
the Holy Spirit.
Main Objective
The Bible, in Philippians 2:4, reminds us to care for
one another and to encourage one another in the LORD. "Look not every
man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others "
(Philippians 2:4).
MF presents an opportunity for all men to come
together as the children of God to encourage and strengthen one another
in the faith.
Activities of Men’s Fellowship
A. Bible Reading and Bible Study
Our main focus for the year 2008 is for our men to
study God’s Word and be able to grow in His grace.
Spiritual maturity does not come overnight but that
we should persevere to be like Christ through the reading and the
mediation of His blessed Word. As James says that we should not be a
reader only, but that we should be doers of the Word as well.
The Sunday School Bible Study, held every Sunday
morning in two groups, is facilitated by MF members. We are now going
through the book "The Measure of a Man"
All MF members are also encouraged to read
the whole Bible in one year.
B. Evangelism
"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and
preach the gospel to every creature." (Mark 16: 15)
"But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with
compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as
sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest
truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the
Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his
harvest." (Matt 9:36-38)
Every born-again Christian needs to take up the cross
to follow and to obey Jesus Christ’s command to spread the good news of
salvation through Him. God has chosen His disciples that they may remain
and be found faithful to tell the gospel message to everyone.
God says that those who spread the gospel is wise and
shall shine as the stars for ever and ever. This is because all that we
do shall come to pass but every soul that is saved shall have
everlasting life and the reward is eternal. "And they that be wise
shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many
to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever". (Daniel 12: 3)
In this respect, MF members are currently actively
involved in Door to Door Evangelism coordinated by the Evangelistic Band
Fellowship (EBF)
C. Prayer
God hears our prayers. The LORD is delighted to hear
the prayers of His saints. He answers prayers.
Therefore, we encourage our men to come together to
pray for the church, the session members and for one another. Christian
brethren should uphold one another in their prayers that we will not
fall into temptations and be a snare.
There is a once a month prayer meeting in replacement
of Sunday School Bible Study. In addition, there is a monthly home
prayer session held at one of our member’s home.
D. Fellowship Meeting
MF conducts monthly Fellowship meeting including
combined meeting with the Ladies’ Fellowship (LF). Outside and internal
speakers exhort us on special interest topics, preceded by testimonies
from members.
Combined seminar is also held once a year. This
year’s topic is "Enriching Our Marriages".
E. Care and Other Ministries
Visitations and care for the sick and needy are part
of MF’s ministry. More members are encouraged to participate and to help
plan and develop this ministry.
MF members are also involved in various other
Ministries of the church namely; Rehoboth Evening Service, Chinese
Service Choir, Golden Age Fellowship (GAF), Evangelism and Discipleship
Department (EDD), Mission trips, Outings and Monthly Family Worship
meetings.
