So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building  

(1 Cor 3:7-9)

​

As God’s co-workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain.

(2 Cor 6:1)

​

His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

(Matt 25:23)

While God can do all things through His sovereign power, He has also granted us the privilege to be His “co-workers” or “co-labourer” to participate in building and expanding His Kingdom.  Even as He has given the Vision for SSMC, His Holy Spirit must empower individuals to bring to fruition His purpose and accomplish the tasks set before us.

​

It is by God's grace that He has provided the resources, talents and giftings within the Body of Christ.  The challenge is  for us is to respond to His invitation to be His co-laborers as the harvest remain plentiful and the labourers are but few.  

at least one of the following (non exhaustive list of) areas of service  which are in need of co-laborers:   

​

  • Ushers / Traffic Wardens / Greeters / Hospitality (coffee table)

  • Worship Ministry (singers / musicians)

  • AV Ministry (video/photographers, projectionist, sound technician, multimedia)

  • Children’s Ministry (Children Church Leaders /Asst., teachers / helpers) 

  • Community Service (Tadika Methodist teachers/helpers, Pusat Penyayang Tuisyen Teachers, Visitation, Food Bank, Sports ) 

  • Youth Ministry (Youth Leaders/Assts, volunteers)

  • Language Ministry (Chinese Ministry, KBM - Bahasa Speaking Ministry)

  • Alpha Course (Film Series, Parenting, Marriage) facilitators/assts.

  • Short & Long Term Missions 

  • LifeCare Ministry (inner healing & prayer counselling)

  • Open Home Ministry (Opening your homes, fostering out of town youth/students, hosting visiting missionaries)

  • Transport - fetching those who are in need of transport to church meetings

As you can see there are ample opportunities to employ the abilities that God has blest you with, to serve Him and the Body of Christ. If you haven't discover your spiritual gift(s) yet, talk to one of the leaders or do simple Gifts Assessment test below. 

 

Don't let your talents or giftings be "buried" as in the Parable of Talents. Perhaps beyond abilities, the more important consideration is simply "availability" and a "heart to serve"! Are you willing to echo the response in Isaiah 6:8 "Here I am, send me!"  ?

Contact your DG leaders, or any of the church leadership team to discover, affirm and confirm your giftings/calling and to explore the many opportunities to serve and grow even within the body of Christ!
