People@SingNavs Bridging the gap in Canada The Raja Mannar Update

V

ancouver has gone through major demographic changes with the huge influx of Asians and people from all over the world – a cultural shift that Navigator missionary Raja Mannar gave due attention to.

“The local church I’m partnering is filled mostly by white Canadians. But they are unconnected to the large Indian and Chinese population around them. In my children’s school, Indians and other Asians make up 50 percent of the population.”

With these demographic and cultural changes, he said churches and believers that seek to share the Gospel and make disciples should know the societies and culture they are in to effectively reach the lost.

Raja and his family are currently involved with the Navigators Canada doing cross-cultural ministry in the Greater Vancouver area.

“What I’m doing now is learning to understand the culture and trying to enter it and engaging in it in a way that would flesh out the Gospel,” he said. Besides his other involvements in church and community, he was also a chaplain for a year in a local hospital in Vancouver, where he visited the sick, the elderly and the dying and “saw life from their perspective”.

Raja was also involved in a parents’ advisory committee and a member of Vancouver-Singapore Club, a group that seeks to foster bonds among new immigrants in Vancouver from Singapore. “I find many opportunities to connect with non-Christian people and do evangelism and discipleship in my neighbourhood, small communities of men and other groups.”

Social problems are out in the streets and are taken care of more by the government, and not by churches nowadays. He said if churches come alongside to support single mothers, or teenagers from broken families, and all those who are in trouble, people will know that the church is not just a building where all religious events happen, but as something that is there to bridge the gap for them.

Raja seeks to do this by mentoring leaders who are socially involved in helping the poor and destitute.

Raja joined the Navigators military ministry as volunteer in 1970 and became a missionary to India in 1981.

God’s promises on how he would bless the nations and bring them to himself make Raja’s heart continue to tick for missions. The life of Abraham, how God called him to go to a land that he’s never been to and there form a new community, is also a constant example for him to follow.

“Most importantly, the truth about who God is inspires me and the fact that God cares and loves the world and each individual makes me want to reach out people more,” he said.

What has been a lifelong challenge for him? “It is always my own life in terms of being alert to my personal weaknesses and sin especially in the area of parenting. I find that it’s so easy to be involved in disciplemaking ministry, to go around and help others to mature and grow and yet when I walk into my own home, my patience flies out of the window,” Raja, a father of four, said and laughed.

“Discipleship is coming to terms with me, with my own capacity for evil, and God’s greater capacity for good”. – ALC

Mission is possible

was encouraged (after the games) but at the same time I felt a bit scared and sorry for the people there (in tribes or countries where Christianity is unknown),” 14-year-old Charlene Teh said.

Charlene was one of the teens who attended The NavTeens rally on missions.

Divided into groups, the teens played games where they were tasked to share John 3:16 to unreached tribes. They had to go through missions real-life difficulties like cultural barriers, language, weather, corrupt practices, and physical obstacles.

“In the mountains, in the deserts, in the seas – the Gospel is to be heard. It is too good to be kept only for yourself,” Navigator staff member Oliver Kelly threw the challenge.

Suyintha Supra, another teen participant, was amazed how the tribes relied on God for their daily provisions. “In some sense we

could also “provide” for them through our prayers,” she said.

“This is the first time in a long time that we’ve introduced missions to the teens,” said Oliver who had himself been a missionary to Tanzania for ten years. “If we are to do disciplemaking, I think they need to have a feel of what missions is like from the early stage of their lives.”

He told the teens of their opportunities to share Jesus with their foreign classmates and neighbours. “You don’t even have to go to Nepal or India to do an overseas missionary’s work.

There are many foreigners in Singapore. Take the opportunity.”

Indians gather at Little India. Thais hang out at Beach Road, Filipinos meet at Lucky Plaza.

“Have you ever thought of the guy who makes the roti prata that you eat? The makers of roti prata are the Tamils, which is among the biggest groups of people who don’t know Jesus. So every time you eat roti prata, I want you to pray for the person who made it because he has not heard the Gospel yet,” he said. – ALC

International Director Mike Treneer, who gave a three-fold charge to the new AD reminded Alan not to rely on human strength or will but to rely on the promises and love of God. “If you rely on yourself you will fail.

To the extent that you rely on Jesus, he will make sure you succeed; love Jesus above all else and take care of his sheep that he has entrusted to you.” – AK

US/UK Summer Training Team

E

leven Navigator students from the US and the UK came to Singapore for a short term, summer missions exposure between mid-July till early September 2006.

Assigned to the National University of Singapore (NUS) Navigator ministry, they were tasked with sharing the Gospel, interceding for the campus, organising events, and helping in publicity and contact tracking.

Tim Peters from England said his time with the NUS Navigators had shown him how to practically disciple others. “And greatest of all is to see the Church here declare that God is good. We’re also thankful for the love and hospitality we have enjoyed in Singapore.”

Another team member David Irvine witnessed how the Christian groups at NUS come together for a university dedication service in prayer and challenge to make the students years in the university count for Christ.

“I was struck a lot by how God has the nations on his heart and his people to be united. I think I realised here that God is real in daily life than I have given him credit before. I have learned to model myself after Christ so that I become a model to others. My time here has been engaging and a life changing experience in many ways.” – ALC

“Insider” Coaches Conference

I

s it reasonable to expect people busy with raising a family, holding regular jobs, some struggling with illnesses to take the Gospel to the world? How do we position the national work in the light of our call to live and disciple “among the lost”? What does it mean for our student ministries? These were some of the questions that more than 80 Navigator staff and volunteer staff from about 15 countries including Singapore discussed during the Insiders Coaches Conference. Participants used five case studies of ordinary people who are making an impact in their natural spheres of influence as a springboard to their thought provoking discussions. The case studies trace networks of relationships that span more than ten years, highlighting lessons learnt and key turning points.

The conference was held from August 13-15, 2006 at the Concorde Hotel in Kuala Lumpur. – AK

MEDITIATIONS MEDITATIONS The true test of your impact on people and places is what remains after you are gone. Eighty-five-year-old Roy Robertson, who was personally discipled by Navigator founder Dawson Trotman, was the first Navigator missionary sent out to Asia where for 15 years he directed the Asian branch of the Navigators. He pioneered Navigator ministries in China, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, and Indonesia. Many of these ministries still bear the effects of his influence, especially through the people he and his wife Phyllis trained and left behind.

On August 19, 2006, Roy gave a workshop on

Leaving a Spiritual Legacy

L

egacy is defined as “a gift or standard left to those who remain after one leaves.”

In 1967 I returned to Singapore for our second term of ministry. During my devotional reading, I read about David’s “mighty men” listed by name in 1 Chronicles 11:10-47. Apparently each one of them had a personal and loyal relationship with David. Through these men David fought many wars and won great victories for the Lord. “Lord,” I prayed, “please give me 30 mighty men as the fruit of this ministry in Singapore.”

My desire was that they would be men who were mighty spiritually – each able to win someone else to Christ, then able to follow up and develop that person, until he in turn was able to reach and teach others also.

I shared this exciting dream with my wife, who calmly asked, “And what about the girls?”

“Of course,” I replied, as if I had them in mind along, “we will call them the 30 Godly Girls.”

In studying further the record found in 1 Chronicles 11 and in 2 Samuel 23, I noted that David had a “first three” and a “second three.” At this time I also had six key men, so I made each of them a group leader over five other men. The arithmethic of that meant that six fimes five would give 30, so I had my 30 mighty men.

Phyllis also appointed leaders among the women and began praying for 30 “Godly Girls.”

By the end of the year, God answered our prayers for this vision and enabled us to follow it beyond our expectations. The raising of spiritual generations begun in our early days in Singapore continues to the present time.

What do I leave behind in the lives of those to whom I have ministered? First, there must be proper motivation.

I must desire to produce disciples. I was taught in the home of Dawson Trotman under his personal leadership.

He taught: “Emotion is no substitute for activity.”

04 • NavNews • September — November 2006

First I must have some kind of plan and put it into effect. Yet, “Activity is no substitute for production.”

My ministry consists of many good activities involving evangelism, teaching and training. But what is the long-term result in the lives of people to whom I minister? How do I produce people who remain faithful in their Christian walk, not just converts but true disciples?

The apostle John called them “disciples indeed”. To leave behind those who continue in the faith – this is my spiritual legacy.

Journey of Discipleship

To be a maker of disciples, you must first become a disciple yourself. The apostle Paul declared, “Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ” (1 Corinthians 11:1). People don’t do what you tell them. They tend to copy what they see you do. Dawson Trotman also taught me: “Everything produces after its kind. Dogs produce puppies, cats produce kittens, and Christians produce other Christians.”

So to produce a true disciple, I must first become a true disciple.

True discipleship is not just a quick sprint. It is a long journey. There are landmarks to show our progress on the successful continuation of this journey. But we must make these things a part of our life before we can lead others on the same path.

You must first travel the road and then you can take others along the road. Are you a disciple of Jesus? How far have you travelled?

Roy Robertson describes ways you can increasingly enjoy your rich heritage in his book Legacy of Discipleship – Lifetime Journey.

This practical manual challenges readers to apply the unchanging principles of faith and obedience in the journey of discipleship.

NUS Philippines Mission Trip Report

by Lee Teck Yong

W

e wer e all de gr ee-holder s from National Univer sity of of Singapore (NUS), reputed to be one of the top three universities in Asia.

However, when it came to bridge construction, the best we could do was to get out of the way most of the time. It proved to be a Const r uctio very humbling experience. n wor k is ha rd to The NUS Navigator mission trip team do! went to the Philippines and engaged in slum, youth and tribal ministry from May 23 to June 22. The men in our team worked with the tribal men to construct a concrete bridge linking their houses to the sea shore. The project required a lot of muscles because there were no cement mixers or any sort of construction equipment. Everything was done manually.

We estimated that the strength of a tribal man would equate to the combined strength of four of us!

We also conducted “shower” evangelism for slum malnourished children living in Banana Island, which is not an actual island, but a landfill for dumping rubbish. We also worked with a community of worshippers of Isa AlMaseh among one of the ethnic tribes.

A miracle happened when we had to charter a four-seater plane to fly into ay to actical w r p a – Palanan Bay. We were told that we had shower ildren a h c e th to pay for the plane’s return flight back Giving ve God’s lo express to the mainland even though we were only using the plane to fly in. We did not have sufficient cash so we prayed.

The next day, God miraculously provided people coming out of Palanan when there were none the day before. The same thing happened when we had to fly out of Palanan. With the money we saved, we were able to give towards the education of the children of people in Christians Missions for the Unreached (CMU).

We found out later that the leaders had been praying earnestly for God to provide money quickly because school was starting and they did not have the money to send their children to school. God not only provided for the team but also for the CMU people as well!

For three days, we stayed with the Agta people in their huts – there were no sanitation facilities, no potable water, and no electricity. We realised how we take the daily necessities we enjoy in Singapore for granted. We were touched by their hospitality. They gave us all the fish they caught while they themselves ate plain low grade rice. They gave out of the little that they had. We flew back to Singapore with our lives challenged once again by what God had in his grace shown and taught us in the Philippines.

More than just an adventure

or graduates like me, the experience in the mission field goes much deeper than just seeking for adventure. As I reflect on the 2005 and 2006 trips that I have made to the Philippines, I know God has started a journey of discovery in me and spurred me on to become a dreamer for his glory.

Moving constantly for 30 days from place to place within the country, I was challenged in every way: physically, emotionally, mentally and most of all spiritually! I often found myself plagued by a sense of helplessness. But I am thankful that God used this to draw me to himself, gently guiding all the attention away from myself to dependence on Christ.

The native Agta people we visited depended heavily on the natural environment for their livelihood.

Being raised as a big city girl certainly did not prepare me for my encounter with the wilderness, much less survival skills. I was constantly confronted with many of my own fears – water, scary bugs, scaling heights, tasting exotic delicacies (much to the disdain of my taste buds), preparing and preaching to a congregation more senior than I am – the best I could do was to overcome them with short breaths of prayer for help!

God is gracious beyond measure. I am always surprised by how much I have grown in the process of learning to depend on him for strength and wisdom.

With Christ beckoning me to pursue the dream that he has planted in my heart since my first trip to the Philippines, I am growing in excitement as I seek and anticipate what God has in store for me.

From July 15-25, a team of 12 adventurous, single professionals set out to partner with a European Navigator missionary and a local pastor to build a house at a tsunami-hit village in Phang Nga province in Thailand.

Are you sure we can build a house?

By Angeline Koh

T

he “crazy” idea of organising a community service trip came about in 2005 when I began asking God to let me be a part of something that was way beyond my capacity. God planted in me a dream to mobilise a team of singles who might want to invest their time, resources and precious vacation to preach the Gospel through their acts of compassion, kindness and service.

The emails that went back and forth between my contacts in Thailand and I did not answer many questions I was asked, “What will our accommodation be like at the village? What kind of toilet facilities will we have? Are there mosquitoes there? What kind of house will we build? Are you sure we can build a house?” I was thrust to trust him every step of the way. I thought I was crazy but ten even crazier singles from among the over 300 members of the Singles Focus Group (SFG) and one Filipino doctor bought into my dreams.

Over the 11 days, we were able to • build (yes, build) half of the walls of a Thai lady’s home • conduct games at an orphanage for tsunami-affected children and also at a Moken Sea Gypsy village • our team doctor was able to give medical treatment to the Thai people Pastor Wasan who has worked with more than 80 volunteer groups and helped build about 80 houses in Phang Nga province since the 2004 tsunami said that the hard-to-reach Thai people are responding to Christ as they see the love of

Christ through Christians who are willing to do things that even their own people would not do to alleviate the plight of the victims.

Team member Amos Toh, an engineer, wrote, “This Thailand community trip is the most enjoyable and fulfilling trip for me in comparison to all the places and countries I have visited. I do not know the key ingredients that contributed to this interesting and memorable trip.

I ponder over the following factors: • 12 people (a big group) • Different professions • Variety of family backgrounds and upbringing • Barely knowing each other • Working on a project that requires unity • Highly urbanised civilians • Complete strangers to construction work • Physically doubtful to meet the challenges of construction work

06 • NavNews • September — November 2006

The combination of the above suggests to me, or to any reasonable man, that the mixture of these ingredients would inevitably (or predictably) attract nothing but any form of disaster (in our interpersonal relationships).

Nonetheless, the outcome proved to me that the odds prevail. Is it possible that there are no coincidences? If the answer is yes, then it has to be God who made it happen the way that was least expected.”

Export Marketing Executive Timothy Chung said, “Everyone took initiative and volunteered to help in whatever way they could, not expecting to be served but to serve. It takes lots of discipline and self sacrifice. It’s simply quite remarkable, coming from a group of people who hardly know each other!

If there is a new TV series, ‘Survivor for Groups’, I suggest we join it because I’m sure we’ll come out tops (through the grace of God).”

To the Point Dear Navigator Friend,

A God is at work in the nations

verse that The Navigators in Singapore has been claiming since 2001 is Haggai 2:9 where God said that he would make the glory of this present house greater than the former.

The verses preceding that promise however say, “In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land. I will shake all nations...”

It is after that “shaking” that “the desired of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory…”

We see all over the world that God is indeed shaking the nations. September 11, 2001 (attack on World Trade Center, New York) and December 24, 2004 (tsunami) are two dates that have forever changed history. In Sri Lanka, people are coming to Christ because of civil unrest. In Bangladesh, hundreds of thousands are coming to Christ because of poverty. A staff member shared that it was only after the tsunami that the doors in Aceh suddenly swung open for the Gospel. Another of our staff members who had led a team to work alongside a local pastor and Navigator missionary to do a house building project for tsunami-hit victims was told that after the tsunami, 20 churches sprouted in that Gospel-resistant province (see report on pages 6-7).

The nations at our doorstep…

We don’t have to go too far to seek out the nations.

They are right under our noses.

In our recent Discipling the Nations Conference, Navigators Asia Missions Director Jim Chew said, “The Church is sent to be God’s people to advance his Kingdom

by living and discipling among the lost. He wants to restore relationship with all humanity. Where do we begin in discipling the nations? Right where we are.”

Within few hours from Singapore are the largest countries of the world and the most challenging people groups. Yet even without going out of the country, the nations are already within Singapore’s doorsteps. About 800,000 of Singapore’s over four million population are foreigners. Foreign domestic workers, factory workers, and professionals make up the 700,000 of Singapore’s 2.3 million work force. In addition to that, there are 55,000 international students enrolled in Singapore’s top universities and schools and the number continues to increase.

Recently, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced immigration as one of the government’s key policies in answering Singapore’s declining population. He called on Singaporeans to be “big-hearted” in welcoming immigrants, a report from Today newspaper said.

The opportunity to share the Gospel to the nations within Singapore abounds. Jim in his key note message shared three R’s in dealing with the challenges and opportunities among foreigners which I want to exhort us as well.

Respect them, relate to them, and reach out to them.

The Lord bless you as you go make disciples wherever he has placed you.

With you, Thomas Chua National Director

Not only did their help meet a need, but for Janice Yeo, an NP volunteer labourer, “The satisfaction of a job well done made it all worthwhile. This is also true in our journey with God.
