"This is how we have known what true love is: He gave His life for us. We, too, ought to give our life for our brothers and sisters."   Love is a word very much used and abused. The acid test of love is our readiness to die.  Not many are ready to pay that price. Could this be the reason very few really love?  A readiness to die for the ones we love also includes that daily dying to self - to the expectations we have of others, to our attitudes towards them, to the terms and conditions we lay down for them to measure up to.  Only when we are ready to die to self can we live for others and truly claim to love them.

With more than thousand delegates from different  participating nations of middle east and several  countries from Africa, including Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Lebanon, KSA, Seychelles, Kenya, and the host country UAE, all gathered for a big event to glorify and worship GOD. One Goal, One vision and mission of CFC-Singles for Christ is to adhere and bring all brothers and sisters closer to GOD and to fulfill the mission of teaching outside and inside the community. I am so overwhelmed because it’s a wonderful and great experience as a first timer attending on this big event which happen to be in UAE as host. Let me tell you the exact same thing when I witness this beautiful event, actually the night before the fellowship, someone calls me If I am available to attend that conference since one of the brother failed to attend because of some offshore work duties. Lucthis I am so thankful to our Lord Father for letting me experience this great feeling. kily sin...

In Christian Catholic  "Chastity "  is classified as one of the virtue, it does not only mean having no sexual relation before getting married but a vow of fidelity your partner. When most people hear the word Chastity they mistakenly think it is "awkward" to talk about sexual things and its only for those with partners.But we as a partner and in a relationship status during our workshop, at first we felt awkward especially when the speakers says unusual words such as "sex","masturbation", condoms and vices including watching pornography, reading and looking at the sensitive parts of a person's body. But as went along and listened we realized that it is very interesting and a challenging topic. As a Christian Catholic and part of SFC Community, We must practice the virtue of "CHASTITY " and stop doing these vices and refrain from any sexual relations or extramarital sex. Don't look at the physical appearance of the...

 Ang Diyos ay ligayang ating buhay  sya ang dahilan sa araw-araw na buhay  pagkat sa kanya lang natin naramdaman  pag-ibig na walang hangganan  ilang beses man tayong madapa  alam nating luha'y mahuhupa  pagka't siya ay di mawawala  sa lungkot na ating dinadala  patuloy mo kaming gabayan  pati na rin ang aming bayan  pagmamahal mo ama'y lumaganap  upang pagkakaisa ay makalap  ikaw ang buhay at pag-asa  ng pusong naming umaasa pagmamahal mo sa ami'y ibinigay  kasalanan nami'y sa krus iyong tinangay pasasalamat aming itinataas  sa buhay na iyong pinamalas  hindi man sapat ang sambit ng bibig  hayaan mong paulit ulit na madinig

October 13, 2017 marks a memorable event being one of the members of SingIes for Christ by giving my time fully to the Lord by understanding the questions, why I was called and why am I here for?  We, the new members in this community, were invited to attend the Covenant Orientation Weekend for this will be the moment I can surely answer the questions I have in my mind. The day was filled with joy and excitement hearing seven inspiring talks from different speakers who also gave their time, talent and treasure who served as our inspiration of how blissful they are serving and living their life faithfully to the Lord. Talk 1: Our Covenant and the Mission and Vision    It was explained and made us understand the deeper meaning of what Covenant is all about. Covenant is a solemn lifetime or long-term agreement of not just between two equal parties, but between a greater or more powerful person.  Being in SFC and Christians as a whole who chose to follow ...

It was year 2012 when Brother Jervy Penuliar who happens to be my College Schoolmate invited me to join SFC. I, unfortunately, gave my refusal and answered NO as I have only 1 day off and split duty with my previous company. I got afraid that I may not be committed and that I may fail him, so the thought of going to church and attending mass will be my excuse that time to satisfy my commitment to God. In 2013 my sister and brother-in-law joined CFC. As years go on, I have seen and witnessed all their struggles, disappointments, depressions, flaws, imperfections, ups and downs despite being in the community. My fear increased more, for I thought that joining the community will transform us and change our hearts and minds drastically without realizing that it is really a work in progress. Finally, my journey in SFC started on 19th May 2017. I was invited again but still not sure of my decision and expectations. I was nervous, clueless and empty-handed. All I know during t...

Our hurts, our healings, our forgiveness . These phrases were the parting words that were stocked on us after attending the October Prayer Assembly for SFC Chapter A1 last October 13, 2017 held at Center 1, Al Safa Building. This night was one of those assemblies when emotions were too strong because it is definitely close to everybody’s heart. During the activity, the team heads Bro. Bryan and Sis Thel opened the night with a question, “how it means to be a Christian?” Some answered its loving God, some says believing in His words. This activity with the theme “Conquering evil with good” mainly revolves around the love we have for others, even those who hurt us. As per Luke 6:27 “But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you”. However, how can we love our enemies? It is easy said than done. We all know that if a person has caused you so much pain, it will never be easy to forgive. The next question will be, “what do we really meant by forgi...
