👧👦 AFC Bonglas Kids Ministry Update 💗

Our Kids Ministry is currently reaching children from three different locations in Anopol—Zone 3, Zone 4, and Zone 7—through the dedication and faithful service of our committed Kids Ministry teachers. 🙏❤️

Every week, our teachers continue to share God’s Word, teach biblical values, lead the children in prayer, and create a joyful environment where every child can learn and grow in Christ.

We are praying and hoping that this month, we will be able to reach two more locations, bringing our Kids Ministry to five active locations! 🎉

Our desire is not only to gather children but to reach communities, disciple young hearts, and help raise a generation that knows, loves, and follows Jesus.

“Train up a child in the way he should go…” — Proverbs 22:6

To all our dedicated teachers and volunteers, thank you for faithfully serving our children and investing in their future. Your ministry may seem simple, but the seeds you are planting today can make an eternal impact. 🌱❤️

✨ Preloved Blessing Drive 2026 ✨

Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude! 💝

We are deeply thankful to our generous sponsors from Korea for sending two huge boxes of preloved blessings for our church and community. 🇰🇷📦❤️ Your kindness has become a wonderful reminder of God's love and faithfulness.

Yesterday, Sunday, August 2, 2026, we held our Preloved Blessing Drive at the Anopol Covered Court, where children from our Kids Ministry and their mothers joyfully received these special gifts.

The smiles, laughter, and grateful hearts we witnessed made the day truly unforgettable. Every item shared was more than just a gift—it was a tangible expression of God's care and provision through generous people who chose to bless others.

To our sponsors, volunteers, church family, and everyone who helped make this event possible, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. May the Lord richly bless you and reward your generosity a hundredfold.

"It is more blessed to give than to receive." — Acts 20:35

🙏 To God be all the glory!

As we celebrate the Lord’s Day, we also take this moment to honor and rejoice in the lives and achievements of some of our brethren. Truly, it is by God’s grace that they have come this far—sustained, strengthened, and guided by His faithful hand.

Today is not only a celebration of milestones reached, but also a testimony of God’s goodness and faithfulness in their journey. Every success, every breakthrough, and every victory is a reflection of His unfailing love and grace at work in their lives.

May their testimonies inspire us all to continue trusting the Lord, knowing that the same God who has been faithful to them will also be faithful to each one of us. To Him alone be all the glory, honor, and praise!
