SACCRE Youth exist for a purpose. We are a united body of youth / young adults who shine the light of Christ in the Charismatic Renewal in Singapore. Unity is of utmost importance and that is what we will shine.
There are many youth / young adult ministries that see SACCRE Youth as a form of competition to their own youth / young adult ministry in terms of resources, etc. We have to change this mindset and see SACCRE Youth as complementary to our youth / young adult ministry. We must see ourselves as part of a body and SACCRE Youth can unite this body.
SACCRE Youth is a place where resources are pooled and made available to assist the growth of the body. For e.g. speakers, praise & worship leaders, musicians, cell group training, pastoral guidance, publicity team, etc.
Instead of building up new ministries at the moment, we should focus on helping our current ministries grow with the available pool of resources. We need to adopt a macro view and see the big picture instead of having a microscopic view…. Thinking only about our own ministry.
By adopting a macro mindset, we will be able to hold evangelical events for the larger body of Christ to bring them into the fold of youth / young adults ABLAZE for Christ.
We need to come up with a calendar of events which highlights key events of all our partner ministries so that the events do not clash and that every partner ministry can promote each others events.
We are the Church. What we do now will influence the future generations of Christians in Singapore.
P.S. Look out for the next SACCRE Youth Rally 'ABAZE.' Coming your way in Sept 2006. It's going to be a blast!
