Life Groups (LG) are a network of outreach points of Calvary Church vital to the growth and well-being of the congregation. Below are LG members experiencing a blessing when they participate in LGs where they “...encourage each other and build each other up....” (1 Thessalonians 5:11 NLT)

 

I remember the compassion of LG members when I first joined – they let me tapau (take home) all the food after our meeting and this saved me money. I really felt the love and compassion from my brothers and sisters in Christ at the time as I was at a very low point in my life not getting an anticipated job offer. Thank God for the support from the LG. - Sandra 

 

Thank God that I was able to connect with a LG member and was introduced to an LG that was a fit. I really enjoyed the lessons with powerful content and felt the warmth and authenticity of the LG. The love the members have for one another was very evident. I could sense God’s presence in the group as I listened to the various testimonies of answered prayers. Praise God, I decided to join the LG as a member. - Su Ann

 

Thank God for my LG members’ prayers for Isaac. He was healed of his acid reflux condition and was blessed with 10As in his IGCSE examinations. Due to his very good results, Isaac’s foundation course fees for his accountancy course will be waived. Praise God for His provision. - Chee Seng

 

I am encouraged by all the testimonies shared in our LG WhatsApp. I felt God speaking to me that He will heal me of my health challenges. After reading a testimony by another LG member, I prayed, “Heal me, Lord, I will be healed. I believe You in faith, I will be healed.” My health challenges disappeared after that – I believed the power of healing is in Jesus and by faith, I was healed! - Jessica

 

Thank God for Leow and Felicia, who gave me vitamins for my eyes. My vision is now clearer. Thank God for caring LG members. - Foong Ling

 

I got a new phone and figured I wouldn’t be able to join LG today. God sent Mandy to help me set up my phone and I was able to meet everyone on Zoom. - Chooi Ling

 

In the words of Henry Ford, “Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success.”

 

“The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed.” (Proverbs 11:25 NLT) Here are how some LG members experienced this blessing -

Thank God for His hand upon our house  – I was texting my LG members when I smelled something burning. I then discovered that my neighbour’s main electric board was faulty and sparking. Praise God they had a fire extinguisher handy and we could put out the fire. - Carter 

 

My daughter suddenly had a stomach ache on Wednesday morning. Praise the Lord, we managed to see the doctor before my LG meeting. When the LG meeting ended, my daughter was in pain again and was admitted to hospital. However, an ultrasound the next day reported everything was normal and she was discharged. When unexpected things happen, I still serve God, I pray, and turn all my worries to God. God is our Provider, I have peace, and I know God is with us. Hallelujah! - Lisa 

 

I had not been well with headache and praying to the Lord to help me so I can lead the LG. Subsequently, the Lord led me to undergo traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Two days later, my headache went away and has not come back! - Linda

 

I was exhausted after a long day at work and wanted to skip the LG meeting. However, I decided to take a nap and still attended the meeting. I was very blessed and encouraged by the worship, the lesson, and the sharing of testimonies. I felt refreshed. - Geoh Sim
