-----------------
Just to keep everyone updated on the current standing of our church numbers:
On average, every week we have a congregation of about 60+ people attending service. During special events such as Mother's Day and Youth Praise and Worship, we have close to 80.
Our Thursday cell group at the moment stands at about 20 regulars, and including irregular members there're about 30+ of us.
Other fellowship groups in our church are: Adult Sunday School, High School Fellowship, Family Fellowship, Prayer Meeting, Working Adults Fellowship and Bible Class.
-----------------
Now, to explain the purpose and utility of this blog: (yes this isn't just a random endeavour)
1. To send out information to members and non-members of our Thursday fellowship with even greater speed and accuracy.
2. For members to post sharing and prayer requests so that everyone can be connected during the week when we're not together.
3. To inform non-members about our existence and help them understand who we are and what we do.
(4. To help everyone improve their bilingual skills, since I'll be doing most if not all of my posts in English haha.)
Okay, that's the first admin matter settled.
--------------
Next, rules of this blog: (yay rules!)
1. Anyone who has attended our weekly fellowship for at least 3 times in a row is considered a "Regular", and therefore qualified to be added as a member of this blog. Members of this blog can freely log in and post sharings, videos, prayer requests etc.
2. No vulgarity, blasphemy or inappropriate language will be tolerated. This goes without saying since we're all nice and sweet people(:
3. To be added as a member of this blog (this has to be done by me), you have to first sign up for an account. This is free and very easy to complete just by following these simple steps:
1) Go to www.blogger.com
2) Sign up for a free account by clicking on "Create a blog" (don't worry, you can just create a random blog and let it rot there. I just need an account from you guys.)
3) Let me know the email account you used to create the blog, you can notify me via email, sms, msn, fb, in person, this blog etc. I'm very "reachable" haha.
4) I will add you to the members' list of this blog and VIOLA! You can now freely access this blog and start posting as often as you like ^^
Members please do bear in mind that you're posting for everyone to see, so do try your best to be responsible bloggers and build our fellowship up, not down XD
Just a few suggestions of things you can post:
*Prayer requests (these can be personal, uni-related, work-related, church-related, world-related, family-related, basically anything you need us to pray for.)
*Inspiring stories (these can be anything you find, from the bible, internet, friends, fb, etc.)
*Daily to weekly sharings (tell us about your hell-of-a-day, your hectic week, the happenings in your life etc., feel free to use this blog as a stress relief and a channel for communicating with the group during your busy week.)
-----------------
I'm really hoping everyone will make full use of this blog. It'll be great to see this place flooded with sharings and prayer requests, and not just me slogging away trying to keep it from becoming stagnant. That will be quite sad, ha.
Okay, I think all has been said, so go forth, oh little ones, and start signing up for a blogger account so I can add you to this blog! ^^
Peace and love in Christ,
your sister Jenny
