The Bedrock of Society

Saturday, 19th May 2007


This evening, my wife and I attended a Families for Life ("FFL") Leaders' Fellowship at Lutheran Church of our Redeemer.


Back in 2003, we had attended 2 of their courses -- Married for Life ("MFL") and Parents for Life ("PFL") and found them to be very meaningful and enriching (especially since we were going through a tough time in our marriage).

One of the best "takeaways" from the MFL course were the lessons on Praying Together and Agreement. We have been putting this into practice every morning on the way to work, and we can testify to the numerous prayers that our Lord had answered since then.

FFL also has a course called One for Life ("OFL") which is meant for those planning to get married.

You can learn more about FFL by checking out their website.

Families are the bedrock of any society, and that is why we see Satan increasing his attack in this area in the last days. Divorces and remarriages are becoming more prevalent even here is Singapore.

We even have very strong lobby groups trying to push their agenda for our government to re-define the family unit.





The family should be one of the main prayer items at this coming Sunday's Global Day of Prayer (speaking of which, more than 600 of our church members have signed up to attend!)

See you guys at the Stadium (before it gets pulled down).
