THE WALK OF FAITH
By Senior Pastor Prince Guneratnam

People want to see miracles but miracles do not happen if we do not walk by faith. Our biggest enemy is not the devil. It is the person we see in the mirror. The Apostle Paul found that he, himself, was the greatest hindrance. He said, “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me” (Galatians 2:20). When we live the “Christ-in-us” life, we can expect miracles to happen. [Read more]

Calvary News has a legacy of more than 30 years. Through the years, it has blessed and helped Calvarites keep up to date in serving the Lord together as part of the body of Christ. However with media consumption now online, printed publications cannot keep up in today’s digital world and have become less useful.

Calvary Church has therefore taken the decision to end the printed version of Calvary News and moved fully online in 2021. Moving forward, Calvary News will be published on our Calvary Church website and shared via our Calvary Church social media platforms. We look forward to the future with excitement by leveraging digital tools to further the work of His Kingdom.

GODec HOSTS ENDED 2020 AS OVERCOMERS
2021/01/01

The challenging situation presented by the pandemic has never been a deterrence as proven by the hosts who obeyed the Lord in fulfilling the Great Commission to be His witnesses. The hosts’ boldness, sensitivity to the promptings of the Holy Spirit, as well as consistency in their witnessing, have resulted in life-changing stories, salvation and rededication amidst many challenges. Here are three of the many amazing stories which proves God’s power in using people who are willing!

Veronica See with Jeannie Ling 

1)    Veronica See was instantly inspired to be a bolder witness for Christ after being equipped in the GODec training. She was prompted by the Holy Spirit amidst her busyness to share the Gospel to a former colleague, Jeannie, whom she has not seen for 10 years. During the opportune meeting over lunch, Jeannie revealed she has just gone through Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) recently. After sharing her pain and struggle, Veronica responded with a prayer for provision and an invitation for Jeannie to accept Jesus into her life which she gladly accepted! Veronica’s obedience to the Holy Spirit, offering a prayer for provision, giving a Bible, leading the salvation prayer and her plan to journey with Jeannie reflects Veronica’s love which the Lord, through GODec has fueled in her.

2)    As LG Leader Leonella intended to go back to Sabah at the end of December, she decided to reach her friends with a Christmas gathering. She invited Kersey, an acquaintance working in the grocery shop and her neighbor, Peachy. Leonella and her family showed hospitality, shared salvation testimony, and offered prayer for both of these guests. Kersey who has not been to church for a while rededicated her life and Peachy agreed to follow Leonella through the sinner’s prayer! Leonella will disciple and bring Kersey and Peachy to Calvary Church Sunday after she returns from Sabah.

3)    Poh Yoke, Alice Goh and Gan Chew partnered, prayed fervently and preached the gospel to relatives, resulting in 4 salvations in within one day. Hallelujah! Whether it is Nursing home or home of their loved ones, salvation is at hand. Their formula of planning, preparation, praying fervently have resulted with God’s providence over the unsaved is an exemplary to us all.

These amazing testimonies are the result of courageous members of the GODec team in stepping out and acting on their faith. Though GODec initiative has ended in 2020, yet the witnessing continues. These stories are shared to encourage you, the Lord is able to use anyone who is willing. We thank the Church for equipping the congregation to be witnesses through GODec. If you would like to be equipped to be a more effective witness, please reach out to your LG or ministry leaders or call Pas Richard Yun or Pas David Seah in the church office.
