'CAN DO' CHURCH

We had one of the best camp gatherings with Pastor Kindah Greening of the King's Christian Centre at Port Dickson's Avillion Admiral Cove. The hotel has quite a picturesque surroundings with yachts parked at the piers. The food was in abundance and the rooms were 5 star. Our New Life folks responded extremely well to Pastor Kindah's animated, humorous style of ministry. This is his first overseas ministry since his quadriple bypass so this in itself is quite amazing. I got to know this remarkable man over this short period and greatly enjoyed the times of fellowship with him over meals. We contimue to text each other since the camp to keep our friendship going.

The following comments testified to the impact the camp has on our folks:

I believe that my faith is being raised to another higher level. Unity in our church has been strongly strengthened. Also, I believe that my attitude to commit myself and submit my undertakings to the Lord have been greatly energized…that there is nothing that cannot be done.- Paul Choong

It is great! My heart just feels like Pr. Ron’s favorite song… "There’s anointing in the air, I can feel it everywhere".- Simon and Annie

I have learned more about overcoming obstacles, generosity, unity and breaking through limitations. We can be a ‘Can Do’ church only if we learn to apply all those aspects in our lives.- Vi Vian Soon

The messages brought to light how we need to accentuate the good in others and the need to forgive as this leads to progress. I was also energized by the word on faith. What I took away from that was that worry causes us to panic and lose control. It distracts us from God who gives faith and vision for us to do great things. We serve a great God who will do great things through us, if we would only believe.- Gary Liew

v(^.^)v Camp was AWESOME. Not only was the place awesome, the people there was awesome, Pr. Kindah’s messages were awesome, the fellowship was awesome, the worship was awesome, the fun was awesome and God is totally Awesome!- Jing Ling

I felt there is an impartation of the ‘Can Do’ spirit and culture through Pr. Kindah’s anointing. The ‘“Can Do’ spirit is characterized by enthusiasm and confidence in taking on tasks and challenges. Simply put, everyone can do anything by ‘doing it one at a time in smaller size’…Philippians 4:13 really stands out.- KY & Angie Lim

I’m very glad to have attended such an awesome event. Pr. Kindah imparted valuable teachings to strengthen our walk of faith with Christ – the ‘Can Do’ factor. On top of that, it was a very special point of my life as a new chapter unfolds (my baptism/being born again). I’m glad to be part of this church, to have received so much joy, care, love and knowledge.- Amy Mah

I conducted my first water baptism as a Cell Leader. It was especially meaningful to me cos the one I help Pr. Lawrence baptize is the little sister (long lost) that I was united with through the grace of God. I am still amazed at how the love and grace of God is ever so merciful; to bring up people (from whatever depths of darkness and despair) to their full measure and potential that God sees in them. The church and the Body of Christ are thus subsequently being built up slowly but surely this way.For His Glory, we CAN DO it.- Yee Mih

Besides the great fun and fellowship with one another, one area that impacted me was the chapter on ‘The Power of the United Mind’. The Bible kind of unity is more than passive unity. Rather it is an aggressive teamwork! It is unity in action. Unity may be prayed for, hope for, but unity will never be achieved unless it is worked for.
I learnt that each of us need to put our actions (not just our talk) together in order to build a strong ‘Can Do Church’ as to accomplish the vision that God has for us and experience the power of teamwork so that the enemy will definitely be unable to divide us and God’s name can be glorified!- Lai Hing

I believe we believers have the first priority to catch the spirit of Can Do if we are close to Jesus because He initiated the spirit and the power of Can Do is flowing from within Him. God longs to gather the Can Do people to build a Can Do church with His Can Do spirit to glorify Him through His Can Do power and authority by God’s Can Do faith. Amen.- Lisa Yap (Puchong Church)

I have learned a lot from the camp, especially on the topic of ‘Generosity’. I think a lot of people view generosity as being generous with money but I definitely agree with the speaker that generosity also covers the way of thinking, the way of seeing and the way of living. The venue, the food, the fellowship and most importantly the presence of the Lord was just awesome.- Jennifer Chan

My room mates, Carolynn and Jennifer, and I have learned that we need to pray effectively and spend a lot of time in deep prayer to receive God’s ‘Can Do’ power and faith to be united to lead a successful Christian life.- Mdm. Wong

The message where Ps Kindah shared about unity truly opened my eyes and made me realize that without unity, really, we are nothing and we will be easily broken. I found the worship sessions good too! Not because I was part of the worship team but God's presence was so strong and the congregation was really filled with energy and excitement to praise Him like He deserves it. Food was okay but the rooms were really comfortable! :)- Sheena Soon

Bottom line, I learnt from the camp- Stephen G

I have learned that unity is very important in the church through Pr Kindah, picking up & collecting the sticks from us. - Tan Kwee Choo

An effective message on positive thinking to break walls of limitations to become overcomers.- JT Lim

Pr Kindah Greening's teaching challenges us to inculcate a CAN DO culture to increase our faith to do God's work.- Yau Wei Chung

The church camp has impacted our outlook and perspective of life, we need to uphold our faith in God steadfastly regardless of the circumstances, to think and act positively and adopt a never give up attitude in our walk with God has further affirmed our belief. Generosity, inculcation of values of generosity not merely projected outwardly but from the inner soul, instil generosity as part and parcel of our mindset and culture in our mission in enlarging the Kingdom of God.- Khong Jing Chang

The Word I received is those who believe in the promises of God and be CAN DO people will experience God's power working through them. HE is continually looking for people who will say-we CAN DO. God has showed us that we have the strength, abiding in HIM and put into action, we CAN become stronger and do all things through Christ who strengthens us.- Chay Wai Ling

CAN DO messages were down to earth. I love the fresh revelations on unity and generosity especially the visual part done by speaker and also the part on leaders’ declaration. Team activities were great too! Personally, the take home message for me is don’t underestimate the power of unity in our church. - Joanna Wee

The faith building messages shared by the speaker had caused me to believe in God for the seemingly impossible situations and also to have a more positive and CAN DO outlook. God taught me to be an overcomer and also experience a real breakthrough in my spiritual and financial blessing for HIS purpose. - Bobby Wee
