San Chong Church Plant Update

The San Chong Fellowship continues to grow in depth and breadth, but we are always looking for new opportunities and ways to improve. Highlights from the past few months include a solid core group and a healthy group dynamic for our Sunday gathering, opportunities to share the gospel with a number of people in the community, and a strong community impact with the outreach to mothers of preschoolers (MOPs).
Our Sunday night group has about four core families, as well as a number of regular attenders. We are still looking for a larger space in which to meet, one that can also host a large number of kids; we average about 10-15 kids each week. (A big thanks to all the FPC help with this aspect of the ministry). There is also a greater vision for the group and for the community that is developing in the group. Recently someone shared that he and his wife had been discussing “how we could share the gospel and what it would look like for San Chong to change for Jesus.”
In addition to sharing the gospel through English classes, one-on-one evangelism and through family dinners, we have seen a great impact through the MOPs ministry. Lots of non-Christians are attending, lots of people from FPC are plugged in and serving, and many people have shared how impactful the messages have been. We hope that this ministry continues to practically bless our community and that it provides a bridge to gospel conversations and connections to the Sunday group.
