WITNESS AND EVANGELISM MINISTRY21. WHAT IS A TASTE OF ALPHA?
A 5-week journey exploring the basics of the Christian faith.WHY A TASTE OF ALPHA?Everyone should have the opportunity to explore the Christian faith, freely ask questions and share their point of view.WHO IS IT FOR? Non church-goers (please invite your family, friends and colleagues who are pre-believers)Young believers and church-goers who feel that they have not received the fundamentals of the Christian faith, or who wish to re-dedicate themselves to the Christian faith.HOW DOES THE COURSE WORK? Each session looks at a different topic surrounding the Christian faith. They explore the basics of Christianity addressing questions such as “Is there more to life than this? Who is Jesus? Why did Jesus die? How can we have faith?”After watching an introductory video, the participants are put together into small groups of 8 to 12 people. These groups are hosted by leaders who facilitate conversation surrounding each topic. We believe food has a way of bringing people together and opening conversations in a community. This is the reason why we provide a sumptuous tea break at every session.There is no charge for attending the course. COURSE SCHEDULE The course will commence on 1 Sep. The schedule is shown below: 1 Sep Session 1: Is there more to Life than this? /Why read the Bible? 8 Sep Session 2: How to read the Bible? 15 Sep Session 3: Who is Jesus? 22 Sep Session 4: Why did Jesus die? 29 Sep Session 5: How can we have Faith? / Alpha Celebration Time: 2 pm to 4.30 pm (except on 29th September, 12 noon to 4 pm).

AMKMC 40th ANNIVERSARY COMMITTEE BLESS
We are on the intentional journey of BLESS(20 May to 9 Sep)
S= SERVE A FRIEND
Jesus said “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45).
Serving is a privilege given to us as a follower of Christ and a joy to savour:♥ Take small steps to serve in your home, school, office, church and community. Read Page 20 of your BLESS journal to get some ideas. Then do it!♥ Record your experiences (Pages 21 to 23 of your BLESS journal).♥ If you have a testimony to share on what you have done, write it on a testimony sticker (available at information counter) and stick it on the billboard to encourage another.
As part of the continuing journey to serve, the ladies from our WSCS have decided that they will serve others:
On 29 July, after all services (8am, 10.30am & 5pm in AMKMC) they will prepare food for our physical souls to strengthen us further for our spiritual quests!
Praise and glory be to God!
