Students Learning and Support Programme\u201d (SLS)<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is a community care initiative jointly organized by the Seremban Gospel Chapel (English and Chinese Assemblies). Our mission is to reach out to underprivileged children and vulnerable families through education. Over the past 18 years of this journey, we have much to thank God for, particularly in these areas:<\/p>\n

  1. Leading Children and Parents to Christ<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The program has allowed the church to connect with approximately 500 students\u2014ranging from kindergarten to secondary school\u2014and share the Gospel with them. We have witnessed beautiful testimonies where children first accepted Christ, followed by their parents joining the church. Currently, out of our 70 church members, half of them were reached through this program.<\/p>\n

    1. Nurturing Generations of Ministers<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Through this Students Learning and Support Programme, many have come to faith and been nurtured into full-time ministry. We have four special testimonies of this legacy<\/p>\n

      In 1992, the Kajang Life Chapel sent the couple to assist the Chinese Assembly of Seremban Gospel Chapel. After receiving theological training in Taiwan from 1994 to 1997, they returned to serve full-time for nearly 30 years. They initiated the Students Learning and Support Programme in 2009.<\/p>\n

      Led to Christ in 1992 by her brother, Elder Phang, Pastor Chui Cum entered full-time ministry in 2006 and has served faithfully for 20 years. Currently, she oversees the Students Learning and Support Programme for primary school students. Her ministry includes home visitations and reaching out to the local Burmese diaspora community (children and youth) through the educational framework of the assistance program.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Pastor James Wong came to Seremban from Bintulu, Sarawak\u00a0 in 2007 to pursue an external degree from UUM. In January 2009, he began a three-month internship at the church and stayed on as a full-time staff\u00a0 afterward. In 2014, he enrolled in the Malaysia Bible Seminary (MBS) for theological training. Upon graduation in 2016, he returned to Seremban to prepare for a church plant in Rasah Jaya. In 2017, the church officially commissioned Pastor James Wong and his family to pioneer the work in Rasah Jaya.<\/p>\n

      Pastor KC Wong\u00a0 joined our Students Learning and Support Programme in 2008 at the age of 13, following a recommendation from his primary school counselor. He accepted Christ that same year. After studying at UPM from 2016 to 2019, he joined the church as a full-time staff in 2020. In 2024, he was ordained as a Pastor. He is currently responsible for the secondary school division of this program, as well as the development of youth and young adult ministries.<\/p>\n

      Jackson joined our Students Learning and Support Programme at the age of 9, following a recommendation from his primary school teacher. He is currently in a season of prayer and discernment, seeking the Lord\u2019s guidance on whether he is called to step into the path of full-time ministry.<\/p>\n

          Since last year, our tuition resources and operational model have successfully assisted the Chinese Assemblies of Gospel Halls in Jasin, Serdang, and Ampang.
