Blessed Easter


















Young Philip never felt like he belonged. He was pleasant enough but he looked a bit different and seemed unusual to his eight-year-old classmates.

In Sunday school class several weeks before Easter, Phillip’s teacher introduced a special project. She gave every child a plastic "egg" - the kind pantyhose used to come in. She explained that each child was to go outside, find a symbol for new life and put it into the egg.
Enthusiastically, the children responded. They raced outside and started gathering things. Back in the classroom the eggs were opened one at a time with each child explaining the meaning of his symbol.

The first egg had a pretty flower; the next a beautiful butterfly. Green grass was in a third. The children "oohed" and "aahed". Finally the last egg was opened - there was nothing in it.

“That’s stupid,” exclaimed one child. Another grumbled, “Someone didn’t do it right!”

The teacher felt a tug on her shirt. It was Phillip, who said, “That’s mine, and I did do right! It’s empty, ’cause the tomb was empty.”

There was an unusual, thoughtful silence. And strangely, from that time on, Phillip was accepted as part of the group. Phillip continued to struggle with many physical problems. That summer he picked up an infection which most children would easily have shaken off. But Philip’s weak body couldn’t and a few weeks later, he died.

At his funeral nine eight-year-olds with their teacher brought their symbol of remembrance and placed it near his coffin. Their unusual gift of love to Phillip wasn’t flowers. It was an empty egg - now a symbol to them of new life and hope. Little Philip reminds us of new life. New life we celebrate here together, on the most important day in our church year. Yes, it’s important Jesus was born at Christmas. But it is critical to know Christ rose from the dead. Revealing to us the empty tomb, gaining victory over death.

We cannot find Christ, the ultimate symbol of new life, anywhere. We cannot hold him, we cannot put him in a convenient little box… or egg. Why? Because we have an empty tomb. Christ rose again and is walking among us in the hearts of those who follow him.

Blessed Easter, everyone!

Dance Practice 14 Mar 08

Hey everyone!

Dance practice is on as usual, so come prepared for a workout!
See you guys there!

An introduction to All For Christ : ABOUT US

All For Christ is a young people's creative evangelism team from St. Paul's Church in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. All For Christ consists of Christian youths, from different denominations, with ages from 10 all the way to over 30!! We are young people (or at least young at heart!!) who know Jesus Christ and want to make Him known. We want to share His Love and Peace, for His Salvation belongs to everyone.

The group was formed in July 1996 and initially consisted of 12 members. Since then, the numbers have increased and today, there are about 40 of us, with most of us being in our teens.

We meet regularly on Fridays, 8PM. We usually begin with a time of prayer and devotion, followed by practice sessions. Occasionally, we end with some games and recreation.

We had a successful debut presentation on Dec 13, 1996 at St. Paul's Church, Petaling Jaya after months of preparation and practice. Since then we have been going out actively to proclaim His Name through our testimonies, dances, skits, mimes, songs and messages.

Our first outreach mission trip was to Christ Church, Malacca in 1997. We usually have a few mission trips every year, visiting various churches and organisations and holding our presentations there.

Aside from outreach mission trips, we have been organising annual Boot Camps since 1998. During the camp, young people from various churches and organisations are invited to join us for a time of fellowship, spiritual teachings, ministry and training sessions. During the training sessions, participants are taught new songs and dances.

Towards the end of the Boot Camps, there will be outreach mission trips & presentations at places such as shopping malls, churches, hospitals and welfare homes. There, presentations that we do at these locations are open to the public.

We also work hand-in-hand with groups within the various churces via jointly-organised activities. Where possible, we also provide help and support for their own activities or projects. If you are interested in joining us in our activities, paying us a visit or inviting us to visit you, leave us a comment below! We would love to hear from you!! :)
