Praise to our God. Following on from our successful 2008 church camp, this years’ camp theme is Kingdom Impact in Changing Times. This is both timely & relevant in today’s turbulent global economy. Join us at this year camp, where as we stay together, worship together, play together, eat together & together study His word, we will have the opportunity to work out how together as a church we can overcome these challenges.

For this year’s campsite, the organizing committee has selected the new 5 star Holiday Inn Hotel, Malacca, located on the beautiful waterfront facing the Straits of Malacca and yet not too far away from KL – 2+ hours’ drive. This lovely hotel offers amenities for everyone young and old such as a formless swimming pool, jacuzzi, spa & gym, etc. And it is located next to many eateries and a shopping mall.  Being a family camp, we cater to the needs of different age groups. Apart from Pastor Ooi Chin Aik to address the adults and parents, Dr Allen Teh, our team building coach, will use state of the art rhythm drums for the young and old to work together as a cohesive body for Christ at St. Andrew‘s. This is to build Christian Soldiers to rhythm. We rejoice that you can join us to study God’s word and have fun together for a mini church camp for one night and two days in exotic Malacca.
