I.G.Nite!

If you wonder what did I.G.Nite! stands for? It stands for Into God Nite. Well,Praise God for that.What a wonderful and awesome concert we had on 30th October 2010 the last saturday for this month. We would like to thank God for the success of the concert.Without Him,nothing can be succeeded.

Before the concert started,we have prayer. Everyone was holding hands to pray, spoke in tongues and let the Holy Spirit touches and flows in us.


After prayer,we started a small ice-breaker first to get ourselves ready before we start the concert.The ice-breaker session was fun and all of us enjoyed ourselves. It's something we can get to know each other more through this game.

Few minutes passed, the concert started.Everyone can't wait to praise and worship the Lord.The concert was great because we can see youths are really passion for God. They really offer their hearts to God and confess that they love God a lot.The presence of God is very strong. Most of them even speak in tongues, they set whatever burdens aside and focus on the Lord and be filled His presence. Besides, they also lifted up their both hands, truly worshiping God. All the glory and praises to our Most High God, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Moreover, even the new comers also lift their hands to worship the Lord when the concert was about to end. It is believed that the songs we sang and played by the musicians do touched them and the most importantly God touched their hearts and lives. It's undeniable that the concert was really an awesome and blessed concert ever and the most important thing we held this concert is to save souls and lost one.

Last but not least, Praise God that we had around 100+ youths attended. We believe seeds were planted and a mighty harvest from God is coming!

Stay tuned for the next I.G.Nite! in March 2011!

IGNITE-Youth Project - Visitation to Orphanages

IGNITE-Youth had our very first visitation to the orphanages on the 4th of September 2010. We had a great time with them telling them stories from the Bible and imparting truths and the meaning of life. We believe many of them were blessed and we do definitely hope for second trip down to minister to them again.

They even sang us a few songs! Take a look..

Movie Nite - Letters to God

Hey guys and girls! Since we do not have any announcement last week about what's going on this week, I'm sure a lot of you have been wondering what are we going to do this coming IGNITE-Youth. Well, wonder no more for we have a great movie in-stored for all of you! Still remember our last Movie Nite titled "One Night With The King"? It was way back on the 15th of May 2010. If you miss that, I'm sure you don't want to miss this movie this time! Remember to bring your friends along too.

"A heartfelt tale of inspiration, hope and redemption, Letters to God is the story of what happens when one boys walk of faith crosses paths with one mans search for meaning—the resulting transformational journey touches the lives of everyone around them.

Tyler Doherty (TANNER MAGUIRE) is an extraordinary eight-year-old boy. Surrounded by a loving family and community, and armed with the courage of his faith, he faces his daily battle against cancer with bravery and grace. To Tyler, God is a friend, a teacher and the ultimate pen pal—Tyler's prayers take the form of letters, which he composes and mails on a daily basis.

The letters find their way into the hands of Brady McDaniels (JEFFREY S.S. JOHNSON), a beleaguered postman standing at a crossroads in his life. At first, he is confused and conflicted over what to do with the letters. Overtime he begins to form a friendship with the Doherty family getting to know not just Tyler but his tough, tender yet overwhelmed mom (ROBYN LIVELY), Stalwart grandmother (MAREE CHATHAM) and teen brother Ben (MICHAEL CHRISTOPHER BOLTEN) -- who are each trying to stand strong against the doubts that come with the chaotic turn their lives have taken.

Moved by Tyler's courage, Brady realizes what he must do with the letters, a surprise decision that will transform his heart and uplift his new found friends and community in an exhilarating act of testament to the contagious effect of one boys unwavering faith against the odds.

Inspired by a true story, Letters to God is an intimate, moving and often funny story about the galvanizing effect one child's belief can have on his family, friends and community."

DUMC Team

If you wonder, DUMC stands for Damansara Utama Methodist Church. Their music team came down last weekend (31st July 2010) to minister to our youths and threw a concert for us. We were very blessed by their ministry and not to mention, learned a lot of things from them as well. Something more about them..

"DUMC is a Cell Church. A Cell Church is a non-traditional form of church life in which small groups of Christians (cells) meet in a special way in their homes to build each other up in Christ and to evangelise the unsaved. It is a church which defines its cells as the basic building blocks of church life.

The cell church is built on the principle that all Christians are ministers and that the work of the ministry should be performed by every Christian. According to Ephesians 4:11-16, God has provided apostles, prophets, evangelists, and pastors and teachers to prepare God’s people for works of service. Such a church is not built around the assembling of all its members, but rather the clustering of believers in “Basic Christian Communities” or “Cell Groups”.

Every believer is equipped to do the work of ministry through these Cells. The Cells may cluster for area “Congregation” activities, also assembling regionally for “Celebrations.” The life of the church is in its Cells, not in the building. While it has weekly worship events, the focus is always kept on the Cell."

Prayer Ride + Durian Outing

IGNITE-Youth Prayer Ride was funnnnn! On the 3rd of July 2010, we went to various places in Penang to pray and intercede for our land. Penang has many strongholds that must be broken down and non of these can happen with only bare hands but prayer can! The most powerful tool ever that God has given us.

After a long day of prayers everywhere, we even stop by to savour our Malaysian's most famous durians! The youths enjoyed it for sure. Take a look at the pics...

I'm sure a lot of you know about this event which was held on the 12th of June 2010. We apologize for the lack of updates but we can assure you from now on that this blog will be updated at least once a week and maybe more! So do come visit us often as we bring you news after news of God's faithfulness.

First of all, we would like to thank GOD for the success of the event. Truly without Him, nothing can be succeeded. Although the plannings were a bit too rush, but God is faithful as we put in our time and effort in praying. He is our God who answers prayers! :)

Praise God that we had roughly around 180+ youths attended. We believe seeds were planted and a mighty harvest of God is coming!

But before revival takes place in Penang, let revival take place in each and everyone of our hearts first. We can all be the mighty warrior of God everywhere we go if we allow Him to use us.

Stay tune for more updates!

Penang First Mega Food Fair 2009

This is the very day all of us looked forward to. Indeed, it was a successful event! Though it was tiring to those who were helping, but the joy of the Lord is our strength! So at the end of the day, we enjoyed ourselves more than we helped. Ignite-Youth has decided to help at the games corner.

              So at 8am, all of us were there to finish up the decoration and setting up the stall. Past 9am, was the official opening ceremony of the food fair. It was true indeed when our senior pastor said the whole week has been raining nonstop. But on that morning, it stopped raining for awhile, and a rainbow appeared! God truly works in ways we cannot imagine, doesn’t He?

              Through out the whole time, it was packed. Everyone was snatching to buy, being afraid the goods, beverage and food they want will be sold out. The sales were so good that some were sold out after a few hours. The best part is seeing little kids trying hard to score for the games. Some were even hooked to the play station games.

              It’s never tiring or boring doing God’s work. Somehow, you find the joy working for Him. Even though there is the H1N1 disease, still by the grace of the Lord, many turned up! Hope to help out the next food fair and see our church!

I.G.NITE! Into GOD's Nite!

I.G.NITE!
INTO GOD'S NITE!

It's the 3rd I.G.Nite! on last Saturday. It's was simply awesome!! It's an event that many of the youths are waiting for. Not for any games or friends but for only one reason and one purpose: To worship the LORD in Spirit and in truth.

The preparation work had been started for 2 weeks. The worship team constantly meet together to pray and to practice on their songs. Thank GOD that on last Saturday, the HOLY SPIRIT really moved mightily in our midst.

There been sweats all around as the youths were jumping and dancing in prasing and lifting the Holy Name of OUR SAVIOUR, LORD JESUS CHRIST. We were so excited and so eagerly praising GOD as the anthem of the LORD resounded!!

There were tears all around as the youths were lifting their hands on high, with the worship to our GOD resounded. GOD really touched many lives in this night.

The message shared by our youth pastor, Pas. Wai Fong, Joyanna, touches many hearts this night as we were being reminded of GOD's Love for us. Many willing to commit their lives to the LORD again and GOD's really moves throughout the Altar Call.

The night ended with the singing of the anthem of the LORD. There was totally rejoicing in the youths as they jump in praise for our GOD. Many were calling for encore even after the night ended. That was simply marvelous to see the youths on fire for JESUS!

The event, I.G.Nite! invitation has been passing around through word of mouths, SMSes and facebook. We were delight at the new faces appeared in our midst. Hope to see all of you again!!

3RD I.G.Nite! has already ended, hope to see all of you again and new friends in our 4th I.G.Nite! in October!!

Amazing G-Race [Season 2]

Group Photo after the race.

14th June 2008, Saturday

Surely this is the day that the LORD has made, we rejoice and be glad in it !!!
Praise the LORD for the weather, it's a typical Malaysia sunny day, there is no rain for the rest of the race!

8.30am
Location: Penang Youth Park
As early as 8.00am, many youths already gathered at the carpark that next to the amphitheater. They are excited and very eager to start the race. There are a total of 63 youths participated this year. They are assigned into 6 different teams. They are fellowshipping with each other while waiting for the race to start.

9.00am
Location: Penang Youth Park
The race officially started at the blow of whistle by the chief game master, Thomson Chee. The first task: Walk around Youth Park, shot an amount of photos on the beautiful sceneries of Penang Youth Park and also pick up ten rubbishes. They were given 10 eggs for each team. The 6 teams went around the Youth Park, some shot the playground, some shot the fountain, some shot the swimming pool. The first team that report to Thomson Chee is Melissa's team, followed by Yong Wei's team, Melanie's team, Kenneth Lau's team, Brandon's Team and Chia Ming's Team.

They were given a goodies bag which consists of a alphabet-random-printed paper, Twisties, Biscults, a plastic cup with a transparent plastic bag, a calendar-pen, a box of drink and an envelope. Those teams that shot 45 photos below they were given additional 5 eggs and for 45 photos above, they get to receive additional 10 eggs.

Inside the envelope contains the clue to next station which states 'By using public buses, find your way to the Promised Land'. This simple instruction left all the teams ponders where is the 'Promised Land'. This time the game master, Chua E Joo, took this opportunity to persuade and negotiate with all six teams for 3 eggs in exchange for the answer of the 'Promised Land'. 5 teams was reluctant to give away the eggs, only 1 which is Chia Ming's Team (only team receive additional 10 eggs) exchange for the answer. Now all teams were running to beat each each other to be the first to arrive at 'Promised Land'.

Some walk to Midlands 'One Stop' Shopping Mall's bus stop, some walk to Island Hospital's bus stop. Only one purpose in their mind: to be the first that arrive at the 'Promised Land'.

11.00am
Location: Promised Land
I'm sure that many of you that not with us in Amazing G-Race [Season 2] might wonder where is 'Promised Land'. Well, if you were in our church, Penang First Assembly Of GOD, will heard of this very piece of land that bless by GOD. You are right, the 'Promised Land' is Multi-Purpose Ministries Complex aka MMC.

The first team that arrived at MMC is Chia Ming's Team. After interviewed, we found out that there were actually 3 teams on the same bus to Komtar to transit another bus to MMC. According to one of their members, Matthew Ho, that he know which bus to board to MMC based on his knowledge. That is why they managed to beat others to be the first at MMC.

While waiting for the game master, Chua E Joo, they already managed to write all hidden strange code in the items that Thomson Chee gave them. They did scribble down all the numbers but they failed to figure out what they actually means.

Chua E Joo arrived. The task given to then is a huge luggage with a 'key-less' padlock on it. This padlock contains 10 numbers which they need to press the correct number to unlock it. They had three attempts with an exchange of an egg. Chia Ming use mathematical probability to unlock it. However, actually there is no need of any mathematical formula, just need to press all the 4-digits and the lock will be unlocked. All the teams didn't notice this. Actually, it was meant to confuse them.

While Chia Ming's team attempting to unlock the padlock, two teams, which are Yong Wei's team and Kenneth's team arrived at the same time. These two teams had to wait for Chia Ming's team to finish the task. Chia Ming's team succeed, they were given additional 10 eggs, another piece of alphabet-random-printed paper and an envelope. In the envelope they need to pray for the MMC land and took a picture. Then they need to go to Lebuh Cecil's market.

The sequence of the teams arrive at MMC: Chia Ming's team, Yong Wei's team, Kenneth's team, Melanie's team, Melissa's team and Brandon's team.

12.15pm
Location: Lebuh Cecil's market
A thousand apology to all the teams for the mistake in the printed clue that leads you to Lebuh Macallum's market. Sorry for that.

Tasks: Took all the alphabet-random-printed paper and had them scribble piece by piece together on the platic paper folder, it actually asking you to 'Find a person who sell goldfish and greet him'. Some manage to put under the sun and managed to figure out what is it.

After that they had to help a hawker at the market to wash their plates. Then they had to find the game master, Adrian Koay, and he will stop-timed and they had to stay at the market for an hour break to take their lunch. After an hour passed, they then allowed to move on to next destination.

Again, Chia Ming's team was first. They finished all tasks given and timed at 12.40pm. Different team timed at different time such as 12.50pm, 1.00pm.

2.10pm
Location: Hunza
This is the last station of the race.

Task: Go to Victory Cafe, look for the game master, Tang Lai Kwan. She will give RM0.60, slot the coins into the water vending machine and the whole team must drink 3 litres of water. Then unlock the coded padlock. Clues will be given after finished the task.

Chia Ming's team is the first to arrive at Hunza after boarding bus from Komtar to Lam Wah Ee Hospital and walked to Hunza.

Followed by Yong Wei's Team, Melissa's Team, Kenneth's Team, Melanie's Team and Brandon's team. After interviewed, some said they walk as far as from Penang Free School to Hunza.

Task: Took the eggs upstairs and throw it down, the team at ground floor has to catch the eggs by using their own ideas. 1st floor is 2 points, 2nd floor is 4 points, 3rd floor is 6 points and 4th floor is 8 points. They can choose which floor they want to perform the task. Points will be given to successful unbreak eggs caught.

Some use rain coats, T-Shirts and so on to catch the eggs.

Final task: Quiz time. They were given 10 quizzes per team, they had to place an egg between their legs. They will be water-bombed for each wrong answer.

All of them were wet after this final task.

4.15pm
All the tasks and games were played and ended. All the youths had their clothes changed and gather in the Hunza New-Lot. Testimonies were given by each representative of each team. They took a group photos then they were dismissed.

WINNERS
Chia Ming's Team.
