We had a fantastic trip to visit the orang asli (OA) children home on August 6th.  22 adults and youth in 4 cars left KL at 9am and reached Tras 11am. We brought gifts, clothes, school supplies, food & toiletries. We "toured" the place, saw the container bedrooms, study hall, new library. Next main project is a girls’ dormitory. Ps Greg & youth presented some songs which all participated in.  Fun! Then lunch catered from a local shop. We left at 2pm and reached church 4pm.
We will visit again in October. Call Amy at 012-2103461 or visit the breakfast team on Sundays at the Fellowship Hall. God bless the little ones.

Visit to OA children on July 23rd has been postponed to 6th August, Saturday. Meet at church 8.30am to leave by 9am to Tras (Raub) and hope to be back by 3pm. Let me know if you are coming because we need to pack supplies into each car. If possible, please bring some food supplies and books for the children. May be able to arrange some durian and lime fruits from the farm.

Please pray for safe journey, blessings for the OA children and for us to be blessed knowing them. GBU.

I am pleased to report Semoa ‘s 10th anniversary and dedication service held today evening in Metro Tebernacle K.L. The event was officiated by Yb Idris Jala, the superintendent of Assemblies of God Malaysia and Mr Arno Thony representing Melia Hotels and Icm – bible in a briefcase. Also present from St Andrews was Beatriz n family, n Pak Nurdin n family.
Attended by almost 700 people including the Semoa ‘church’ from the 23 village outreaches mainly in Pahang and Negeri Sembilan, the event Celebrated the Faithfulness of God and the launch of their first bahasa Malaysia cd : sukacita besar bangsa Malaysia. Its obvious undertones include the Asli rising to their inheritance of this Land in everyway – spiritual as well as physical means by way of an education.
As body of Christ, St Andrews remembers our 7th year partnership with them to date. We should be ever grateful n thankful that the Lord graciously allowed us to partner in such a work.Truly when we had the opportunity to plant the seed in those years this ministry was not as it is now. We thank the Lord His provision to us has never dried up and we have had the opportunity to be faithful in this regard.
As only the Lord can, He has turned beauty out of ashes as the ‘vocabulary issue’ has united the greater church behind this segment of the mission field altering perceptions from previously a psuedo social ministry to that of survival and growth of the future church. As the choir n children sang hymns n waved the Malaysian flag proclaiming Jesus as Lord in their mother tongues we r reminded again of the greater task ahead for them n for us for those who are Malaysians.
Yb Idris Jala shared intimately about his roots, his village, his supernatural conversion as well as the Borneo Revival n what he believes it means to those of us who are Malaysian. One poignant statement he made that I would like to share is as follows :
"this nation has a lot of bitterness – we have to forgive. If as a church can forgive forget as Christ did revival will break out in our churches such that none can contain it…"
I pray this for us as a body of Christ in St Andrews in this nation for such a time as this.

Blessings in Christ
