Affinity Groups

In rural areas, relationships form naturally out of shared family or shared geography. In cities, kinship and geography do not make strong ties by themselves. Relationships form naturally through an ‘affinity’ that is held in common - for example, a shared interest, a shared need or a shared cause.

​

Marginalised Children & Families

Our vision is to help families on the margins to flourish through experiencing the abundant life in Jesus & to share with others around them. We do this by helping struggling children flourish in life by helping their reading and encouraging them and their carers.

​

In Singapore we have connected with about 13 children. Every week, we meet the children and read with them. We see children becoming more confident and see improvements in their studies in school. 

​

We also celebrate different festivals, illustrating their message with God stories and Kingdom values. 

​

Pray with us:

1.    There are many more families on the margins in other estates. Please pray for harvest workers!!

2.    Connections with the person of peace in the different estates

3.    Discovery groups to start in the different estates 

Offenders & ex-Offenders

This affinity group comes from all walks of life. They serve sentences ranging from a few weeks to life imprisonment and death row. The majority are from dysfunctional families or have become the source of dysfunctionality to their immediate families.

Some in this group are hungry to discover God. After 6 months of Discovery Bible Study (DBS), God has answered our prayers with a person of peace. 

​

Pray with us:

1. That the joy of the Lord would fill the hearts of inmates and move them to share their joy with other inmates.

2. That God would reveal Himself to the inmates as they seek Him through the DBS process. And that inmates would recognise and acknowledge their own fallenness in the process too and repent.

3. That DBS would be gradually embraced by more Bible Study leaders for their classes.
