Family Gathering 1: Saturday, 18 June 2011, from 4.30 p.m. to 9.00 p.m. at Fairlight Center (Tooting Broadway)
Parents, youths and children had a constructive and productive dialogue (though heated at times!) on topics as diverse as cultural values, education, identity, risk assessment in life ... and of course the importance of Family as a God-ordained Institution.
The youths and children present at the meeting criticized their parent’s upbringing methods branding them “ not lenient enough" in the European context, to which parents replied that though they might appear "dictatorial" and "outdated" at first sight, these methods are actually and truly love-driven with only one ultimate goal intended: the welfare of their children.
Obviously, concessions must be made on both sides, for our families to experience harmony and peace ... May God help us do just that.
The highlight of this meeting was undoubtedly the moving testimony of our Brother Joel Miatudila, who taught us how important is Family (and parents in particular whom we should highly cherish and value).
To all of you who attended this great event, a massive thank you!

Sporting Day, Saturday, May 21, 2011, from 2.00 pm to 5.00 pm, in Croydon (Waddon Park)
A breathtaking (literally and figuratively) football game opposed The Rock of Ages Men and the Youths. Final score: a trashing 9-3, to our youths!
The Men have promised to avenge that thumping defeat! Watch out for Game 2...
Evangelistic Outing, Saturday, 16 April 2011, from 3.00 p.m. to 4.00 p.m. at Tooting Broadway Tube Station (London)
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel ..." Rom 1: 16
Our youths took the streets of Tooting Broadway by storm handing leaflets out to passers-by (about 500 flyers were distributed on this glorious day). Let us all pray that God through His Spirit will touch the hearts of those who received those tracts!
Conference- “Where are you?” on Saturday 31 July 2010, from 5 pm to 9 pm, at Fairlight Center (Tooting Broadway), for Men and Women and Youths.
An attentive audience, exciting discussions, and ... a summery weather! These were the ingredients that made this event a resounding success.
The question “Where are you?” obviously reminds us of God’s famous question to Adam, after his fall in the Garden of Eden. (Genesis 3)
Though it looks simple at first sight, the question “Where are you?" is actually a complex one that relates to many areas of our lives: Family, Education, Church, Society ...
It also takes us back to our responsibilities, which we must not duck but honor.
Workshops made of Men, Women and Youths were formed to answer a relevant questionnaire on that very topic. A spokesperson for each group subsequently presented a report of their discussions to the audience.
Pastor Paul Kabasele then wrapped up the debate with a unifying address.
Finally, a fraternal meal was shared at the end of this very informative and productive day.
To God be all the glory!
Men, Women and Youths… take responsibility!
