Pastor CEG announced some of the changes that will happen in Pelita this year.

First of, Pelita will no longer be called Pelita – but instead it’s (slowly) going to be called Gereja FOCUS Indonesia (or Indonesian?) or in English – FOCUS Indonesian Church. This name is more aligned to the other congregation names such as FOCUS Mandarin and FOCUS Cantonese and I guess it will make it easier for us to identify ourselves with our mothership ie: FOCUS.

It looks like that we need to secure a new domain name soon.

Another big change is around graduate ministry, it looks like there will be a considerable attention for the graduates starting this year. One of the graduate ministry initiatives is this 3 years Graduate Program. I don’t exactly understand the details – but it is aimed to prepare graduates for the rest of their life. Sounds like a good idea, although it does sound a little bit too abstract for me at the moment. 

Ah yes, another set of changes in church and I think it’s great. I do hope and pray – the changes will turn out to be positive for the Kingdom work.
