Finding Your Place (FYP), the discipleship programme with a difference!

1

Together with Sterling Campus, the Board of Youth Ministry completed the fourth run of FYP this year with 16 participants and 9 mentors, all from 10 CAC churches.

What’s the difference between FYP and other discipleship programmes? Our Marketplace focus. We don’t just seek to train youths towards full-time ministry or church leadership, but also help them discover how their faith matters in every aspect of their lives.

The 3-month programme will be conducted in English, in-person on-site . Classes will run from 8.30 a.m. to 1 p.m. from Mondays to Fridays, with community lunch, mentoring sessions, group bonding activities and service learning preparation on some afternoons.

How much are the course fees?

Members of CAC churches will enjoy a subsidised course fee of $300. Participants from non-CAC churches and churches of other denominations will each pay a discounted fee of $800 for the 3-month programme. Speak to your youth worker/pastor about receiving a monthly allowance for the 3-month duration.

How can churches get involved with or support FYP?

Encourage your youths and young adults to go for this discipleship programme, especially those who feel called to work in the marketplace and/or who have questions about their faith and its relevance to life. To support participation, churches are strongly encouraged to provide their participants with an allowance to cover their daily expenses and other events they will participate in during the course.

REFLECTIONS FROM THE CLASS OF 2023

FYP has changed my perspective of the world and my future. I am now looking forward to many things in life and I developed a desire to please God in the things I do and decisions I make. God has also blessed me with amazing people in FYP and I could see God working in all of them and in FYP as a whole which further strengthens my faith which I’m so grateful for.
Lau Wei Chien

FYP really helped me put my faith into my life. It’s easy to separate our beliefs and our secular goals but these 3 months have been a very strong reminder and lesson on how God can and is in the everyday life.

Ethan Chan

FYP has blessed me with a newfound family in Christ. Through the lessons that we learned together, reflections and times of sharing, I was able to be vulnerable with the other participants, growing more each day. The phrase “Blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb” became a reality throughout the course. Now, I see the importance of viewing Church as family and take steps to foster a strong and close relationship with my own church members.
