OBJECTIVES

To strengthen and support pastors of smaller churches in West Malaysia.

5 Strategies

To RELIEF
We give pastors of small churches especially in small towns in West Malaysia a break by offering to relieve them of their weekend services. We have a pool of retired and itinerant pastors/elders who are willing and available to come and speak for the weekend. The Ministry will underwrite all the expenses and honorariums of these speakers.

To REFRESH
‍We will host pastoral retreats where small church pastors are invited to refresh themselves spiritually.

To REBUILD
‍We want to rebuild prayer altars among churches in the small towns of West Malaysia.

To REVIVE
We hope to revive the Next Generation of small churches in the rural towns of West Malaysia.

To RE-ENGAGE
Re-engage the Silver Brigade.
