Training Days
We hope to be equipped with God’s truth, that we may grow in our knowledge, love and service to Him.
What it is
God’s Word says that pastors have the responsibility to "equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ" (Eph 4:11-12) and that the Scripture is authoritative and sufficient to equip the man of God "for every good work" (2 Tim 3:16-17). We believe that the different members of Christ's body can minister to one another to "grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ" (Eph 4:15).
We desire for all members in the church to grow in understanding, applying, and teaching God's word, as well as to live, love, and serve according to the word. We also encourage participants to continue in discipleship relationships even after attending the equipping sessions.
Next Training Day
In 2026, we will be having 4 Training Days on Saturdays — 31 January, 9 May, 12 September and 14 November. At each Training Day, we will begin with an Ask Anything session with the elders, followed by different tracks. There will also be a children’s track for children aged 3-12 and childminding for children aged 0-3.
Join us at the next Training Day on 12 September 2026.
