Leader members’ meeting of the year was held on 2 Jun. Nineteen of 144 leader members are new while 66 of them are from the marketplace. Eight existing executive members shall remain in their office for the coming year. The audit report of the financial year of 2018-19 and the budget report of 2019-20 were passed.
Reviewing the ministries in 2018-19, Ps Jason counted God’s grace. In that period, leaders were raised up, the number of ordained cell leaders was at record high; the church is planting Trees of Life everywhere, having four new branch churches which is record number. Moreover, God is doing new things: Cruise Carnival, followed by 8 sessions of baptism with 8 sessions of musical, bringing forth a new wave of evangelism; first international pastor tree-of-life couples camp, deepening the truth that a glorious church starts from the couples’ relationship; prayer grottos began, and the Kingdom Worship Conference was held to rekindle the fire of prayer and worship; we purchased a piece of land for the very first time and planned to build “the Garden of Eden” on it. Meanwhile, “360° womanhood”, the very book C-Mo had birthed for a long time, was released during our 18th Church Anniversary, bringing forth rich revelations of God.
In 2019-20, Yong Ya Media Centre will be renovated and developed into a base where we may speak to this new generation. On the other hand, the church is actively organizing the Tree of Life Primary School on the place given by God, aiming to start in this September.
Looking to the future, Ps Joshua shared strategy in 2020 was to establish Bible School and a centralized church, allowing the called ones from nations to receive 611 visions, equipping and healing. They then can be sent back to their homeland to plant trees of life. While C-Mo emphasized the importance of the foundation: being a tree of life, the church’s nutrients come from the soil, so she should not fix her eyes on ministry. Instead, she shall be watering the soil so that it will be much more fertile, nurturing the sprouts which will then grow sturdily and bear much fruits. The soil is our education, family and church and it is the direction we are striving.•
