“And priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the middle of Jordan while all Israeli crossed on dry ground, until all the nation had finished crossing the Jordan. “ – Joshua 3:17 The night was filled with God’s presence during our Chapter B1 Prayer Assembly held last 21st of June in SFC Center 1. As an individual, I have my own circumstances and struggles in life. And most of the time, I tend to focus and ponder on those things that I cannot control. Before I went to our assembly, I have with me all my carry-on baggage’s. I kept on thinking how can I get out of these things that occupied me. But I know one thing is for sure, God called me to be present in our assembly because he knew what’s in my heart and in my mind.  That night was very special for me because it was my first service as part of the Music Ministry. At first I didn’t understand the title of our assembly – Crossing your Jordan River, but as the worship progressed,

The ratio of brother-sister serving in SFC is around 1:3 (to say safely).  It’s more of a challenge than an understatement for us in our Chapter A2 to maximize the potential of our brother.  Thus, June 23, 2017’s “Kapatiran, Walang Patid Ang Samahan,”  of SFC Chapter A2 Brother’s Fellowship and Empowerment happened. The goal is to gather as much brothers as we can in our chapter to pray, bond and learn from each other. We surpassed the limited 2‐3 day preparation but as long our hearts are in line with our purpose, structure and execution will take care of itself. We started with a prayer (praise fest), followed by a series of activities that focus on self-familiarization, getting to know others, building confidence, and team work. The experience that night has been amazing. It was fun and full of substance. The conversations, dialogues and testimonials shared from one brother to another (learning in its highest form). A night truly to remember. Thank you A2 brothers namely Dan, Bri

It wasn’t my plan to travel abroad but it was indeed a blessed journey coming to Abu Dhabi where my SFC journey started, unexpectedly. It was one fine Sunday morning, me and my brother went to church. After the mass, my brother then went to CLP for CFC.  On the way out of the church, a brother suddenly approached me and asked me if I am a bachelor and I just said yes. He did invite me to attend SFC’s Christian Life Program if given a time and my SFC journey began with that simple and willing response “Yes po”. Well, just to make the story a bit short, I was not able to complete attending the CLP as scheduled due to my work timings, but capped the rest of the talks during make-up sessions.  But GOD is so good that I was able to squeeze my time and eventually became a member of the Singles for Christ Abu Dhabi Chapter A2 in 2013.  I could still remember some of the moments I had with my first Household group. At first, I was really too shy and scared to open up my stories
