June 18, Miri \u2013 A wonderful BB Enrollment Sunday as we celebrated our 15th Anniversary. Yes, God has sustained us!<\/p>\n
The narrative of this journey first began in the year 2002 when then the pastor-in-charge of Grace Methodist Church Rev. Law Hui Seng, and a small team of like-minded church volunteers shared the same vision to start the Boys\u2019 Brigade (BB).<\/p>\n
\u201cI can still remember it was a great struggle for us. We went to Sri Mawar Primary School to recruit. We had just a handful of boys joining us initially,\u201d commented Rev. Law. \u201cWe held our weekly parade at the school and subsequently we moved the parade to the church.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.\u201d \u2013 Philippians 4:19<\/p>\n
Success is seldom the work of one but a team. Our salute and appreciation goes to the pioneering officers; our first Captain Frederick Wong (now Honorary Captain), Eddie Woodford and his wife, Flor Nera, Tan Teck Choon, Vincent Kueh, Tiong Tung Yew, Margaret Lee, Anthony Ho and Moses Goh.<\/p>\n
Our appreciation also goes to our other past two Captains; Clement Chin and Andy Chew who were dedicated to the BB ministry. Past and present, we also extend our thanks to our fellow officers and helpers who braved to undertake such a challenging ministry.<\/p>\n
A big \u2018Thank You\u2019 to Rev. Law Hui Seng for his \u2018never-give-up\u2019 attitude to introduce BB to SRK (C) Chung Hua Pujut. Despite getting rejected by the school in 2008, Rev. Law never gave up hope. The good shepherd, as I remember, encouraged the congregation to pray earnestly during the weekly prayer night for acceptance. The breakthrough came two years later. The increase to the Boys\u2019 membership greatly motivated and encouraged us!<\/p>\n
Following Rev. Law, the next pastor-in-charge in GMC was Rev. Lisa Ting. Rev. Lisa during her four-year tenure, encouraged the BB ministry enthusiastically and never once missed our Enrollment Sunday!<\/p>\n
By God\u2019s grace, my wife Roseline became the fourth Captain in the year 2010. Since 2015, she has been appointed as the State Secretary in the Executive Committee in The Boys\u2019 Brigade Sarawak State Council. Presently Sarawak has 40 Companies with more than 4,000 Members.<\/p>\n
In 2015, after many prayers and with God\u2019s grace, our Captain was able to introduce BB to SMK Dato Permaisuri. We were overjoyed because it meant that our ministry covers three clusters; one church-based and two schools.<\/p>\n
We will continue to glorify God as we march on in BB!<\/p>\n
