Praying On Two Sleepless Nights

Dear Friends and Supporters,

Praying Without Ceasing & Sleeping
For 22nd Jan and 23rd Jan morning from 1AM-4AM, I will be praying for our nation, Singapore, as part of the 24/7 prayer chain. SCCC has taken over the prayer baton from Faith Community Baptist Church this week to be interceding for Singapore as part of the Love Singapore movement to unite the churches in Singapore to intercede for the land. I'm privileged to lead the prayer time to intercede for the "Family" mountain on 23rd morning. Please pray for the Lord to sustain us as we are praying in the time slot where it's the hardest to stay awake. You may also go to http://pray247.sccc.sg/ to see why and what we are praying for Singapore this week.

Fuzhou Mission Trip (29th Nov - 9th Dec)
I hope to upload a report of my trip on my blog before Chinese New Year. In summary, we reached out to 250 youths of whom half are from non-Christians. One highlight of the trip is my personal recee trip to witness the movement of Christians in Fuzhou city. I was there to explore further partnership with a mission agency. It was just inspiring to see many groups of new Christians 2 months - 5 months (students, migrant workers) of how they were trained in a week and then sent out to share their faith. If God willing, I prayed that I would formed 2 mission teams to Fuzhou this year.

Campus Internet Ministry or A Virtually-Led Movement
Please pray for the next direction where this campus internet ministry is heading. There were tangible results, but there was a holy dissatisfaction that this ministry should become a movement. Pray that I would be patient with the Lord especially I have plans to host our evangelistic website EveryStudent.com from the US to Singapore and recruit students or staff to form a web team where we can strategize to use the web and mobile technology to build a Virtually-Led movement. See http://epal.sccc.org.sg/escomstats for 2008 results of EveryStudent.com and number of emails received. In next email, I will share with you how another EveryStudent.com contact came to receive Christ, and gave his testimony at NUS. Look out for this story soon on my blog after I interview him!

The Demise of Uncle Sankaran
I'm so deeply affected by Uncle Sank's demise that I can't help missing him every day. Please go to http://www.sccc.sg/ops-hub/sankarans-obituary.html to read about his life. Other than Dr Bill Bright, Uncle Sank is most zealous in evangelizing to the lost through his personal witnessing, his writings, and through his Internet Ministry. I wished you were all there at his wake to hear the stories of the many many lives he had touched. Thank you Uncle Sank for giving your life to the Lord and model for me what it means to follow Christ passionately and faithfully.


Co-labouring with you in the Lord's Global Harvest,
