A NEW DIMENSION
By Sharmila Raj
2021/04/16
Since May 2020, the Dimensions ministry has taken on a new “dimension”. It has gone online with ladies aged 30-80 tuning into the service via Zoom. Meeting online was a radical shift for some, but we realised that the Lord has allowed us to go through “inconvenient” changes for good reason. This is a paradox - the limitation has broken boundaries. Some of our Golden Eagles are getting more tech savvy, with their mega headphones, fancy virtual backgrounds, and “canggih” (sophisticated) lighting rings. With digital technology, even Calvarites outstation or overseas are able to join us for the sessions.
Here are some testimonies on how the ladies have been blessed by the online meetings:
|
“During difficult trials, the connection with people of faith via Dimensions online meetings has uplifted me spiritually knowing that I am not alone.” – Victoria Quah “I was homesick having been away from Malaysia for a while, but am very encouraged listening to the ‘face-to-face’ sharing with many familiar sisters-in-Christ. It is truly a new dimension!” – Faith Tay “I find Dimensions like home away from my home in Uganda because of the way I was welcomed, by ladies I had never met but who treat myself and the friends I later brought along like sisters. Come on ladies out there, don’t miss out on joining Dimensions!”- Stella Kamugisha |
The year 2021 got off to a good start with about 20 newcomers in our first meeting. We have just completed a 4-week series based on this year’s church theme “Walk by Faith.” The ladies were greatly blessed and inspired by the sharing of God’s Word through Senior Associate Pastor Petrina Guneratnam, Associate Pastor Chan Lee Peng, Pastor Phang Wai, Sister Shereen Wong and Elder Patrick Wong. The sessions were personal and down-to-earth, with amazing testimonies of God’s power at work in difficult trials. It further reinforced the truth that “all things work together for good to them that love God” (Romans 8:28).

NEW SEASON, SAME MANDATE
by Annabbel Lily

We have leaped into a new year and still feel the adverse effects of how 2020 has redefined the way we live our lives. What is reassuring is that God is still on His throne, in control. He said “I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, 'My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.' Isaiah 46:10. His purpose is and will always be for the souls of humanity to know and receive Him as Lord and Saviour.
Our small group evangelism initiative 3Sixteen kicked off its new season with a training on Saturday, 6 March 2021. Here are three new trainees who share why they decided to be trained in 3Sixteen:
|
“I specifically want to be trained because I want to be able to use the online 3Sixteen sessions for my brother who is in China to experience more of God. I also plan to approach friends and loved ones so that they too can understand who Jesus.” – Esther Lim “I find 3Sixteen’s approach to evangelising casual and spontaneous yet deliberate. This, I believe, will allow people to open up to know more about our Lord and Saviour” – Alicia Rajaretnam “I was moved by the testimonies of the Life Group members who were trained in 3Sixteen. The Lord's Great Commission is for everyone. It is my responsibility to share His Good News. Hence, it is only right for me to learn and be obedient.” – Yvonne Chow |
