When I happened to bump into someone I know, mostly from among the churches, people would automatically ask:"How are you Kiwi?"
What they usually mean is that, what are you doing, and how are you getting on?
First of all, I am fine. Am a busy old man too. (Getting old lah!)
I am still in Nibong Tebal, having fellowship and ministry in NTGH English Assembly. I am still actively preaching the Word among the churches (mostly among the Chinese speaking assemblies.)
I am appointed by the Chinese Brethren Assembly Elders Conference to take charge of publishing the Chinese magazine "Fusukang" for a the past four years. A total of 13 issues of the magazine were published during this time. There is this Elders Conference coming up this August 30th-1st.Sep 2011. My term for this job expires at this coming conference.
Circumstances also led me to do tentmaking ministry for the past many many years. During the week I will be busy with mid week meetings as well as running a small business. This helps much in my financial need. However, whenever there is a funeral service or a wedding service commitment, I will have to leave the business alone and attend to the calling of the churches.
Being positive and onward moving, I am also actively overseeing the work among the migrant workers in NTGH. we work with the Vietnamese and Nepali.
Thank God, my three children are working and they are also in fellowship and participating in some ministry as well. They are all in KL.
My wife, Hai yen, is fine. By God's grace, her SLE illness is well under control. She is still on medical treatment and going for routine check up. She is actively participating in the serving ministry in church.
I thank God for good health and positive spirit. Inspite of being forgotten by men, God remembers His servant. God has been good to me ever since I come to trust Him since 12 years old. God is blessing my ministry and providing my need in many special ways ever since I walked in faith into fulltime services since 1977. He is good all the time.Praise the Lord!
I am on my retiring journey of life, passing on many pastoral responsibilities to the church elders, and I am just concentrating on Preaching Ministry. Preach whenever doors are opened to me. Rest and relax when I am fellowshiping with the saints.
So my brethren, Kiwi is fine. He is still on fire for the Lord.
