Methodist Adult Fellowship (MAF)

Our Purpose

To grow our faith and life in community with other Christians and be challenged to greater commitment and service in our church, our community and society.

Our Vision

“Light of the World, Salt of the Earth”

Light of the World – We shall live exemplary, personal Christian lives with Jesus as our Lord, in the way we worship and pray, in the strength of our faith and in our faithfulness to Him. We shall shine God’s light so that others may come to receive Him.

Salt of the Earth – We shall rise to the challenge of service in our church and the community we live in so that our Christian love can touch and affect lives positively.

Programmes

To meet the objectives, we have developed programmes that

  • Encourage one another towards a deeper commitment to God and deepen our faith through regular study of Scriptures;
  • Draw members closer to God through worship, praise, thanksgiving and prayer;
  • Establish awareness, sensitivity, care and concern towards the needy, underprivileged and marginalized in our society through short term sensitising projects and exposure trips;
  • Equip ourselves with the necessary skills of evangelism, counselling and discipleship to reach out to the churched and unchurched in our midst;
  • Facilitate the experience of the God-given warmth, love and care and the responsibility for one another as a Body of Christ through regular meetings for fellowship and prayer.

Big Meets

MAF organises Big Meets where members come together for a time of fellowship and often with an invited speaker to share on specific topics. Big Meets are held at Trinity Methodist Church, PJ’s church hall and start with high tea at 3.15 pm.  Typically, this will following with praise and worship, testimonies from fellow members or inspiring sermons delivered by selected speakers.

Bible Sharing/Prayer on Bible Understanding and Spiritual Formation

MAF comes together monthly for a time of bible sharing and prayer. This is usually held on Saturday mornings. Due to the ongoing church redevelopment, the venue may change from time to time, depending on the availability of rooms.
