Testimonies

Serving together as a family used to be challenging with a baby needing constant attention. However, we realized it was possible when we allowed ourselves to be stretched and brought out of our comfort zone. It even became enjoyable when we learned to entrust our child to the care of other leaders and church partners, who have been a source of help, encouragement and inspiration. What started as merely attending Sunday services has grown into actively serving together as a family, including our first child! Now, even as a growing family with a second child, we continue to serve with the support of the Acts family.

I first knew Acts through a campus pizza night outreach initiative, where a leader invited me for Sunday Service. Initially, I wasn’t fully committed because I thought I only had a short time in Malaysia. However, when an exchange program opportunity in university arose, God challenged me to stay in Malaysia. Obeying Him brought me closer to Him and helped me deepen my faith. I started serving, and took up dance classes which gave me an opportunity to be part of the dance performance during church conference. It’s amazing to see what God can do when you fully commit and make yourself available to Him. And now I’m serving in the worship ministry at Acts Karawaci!

I was drawn to root down at Acts because of the vision shared by Pr Kenneth which for me was relevant, as I was working in an ever changing environment. I can see how the church continues to move forward, not staying in the comfort zone but developing multi dimensional approaches to reach out to different ones with different needs. It’s not always easy, but it builds strong and resilient believers.

My husband invited me to join Acts, where I eventually began serving as a Host. Looking back, I realized I was often unaware of other people’s needs and showed little concern for them. The turning point came during a sermon when God touched my heart. That very day, He opened my eyes to help someone in need, a change that even surprised me. I’m deeply grateful for how God revealed my challenges and helped me overcome them. The love in action I’ve witnessed in Acts has significantly impacted my life.

A friend invited me to Acts Church. As a pre-believer then, I agreed to join only because I didn’t want to disappoint my friend, and wasn’t expecting much from the visit. However, the warmth I experienced at Acts completely changed my perspective. The people were friendly, genuinely caring, and made me feel welcome. I was also struck by the visionary outlook and practical wisdom I gained from the Word during the services, which resonated deeply with my life. This was what kept me coming back, even after my friend left for home following our graduation. About a year after my first visit to Acts, I decided to follow Jesus!

When I went home during my university’s summer break in 2013, I was introduced to Acts by my parents, who were attending Acts London at the time. Later on, during my master’s studies, I joined Acts Bristol, which was a pivotal moment in my life. There, I found a community I loved and built lifelong friendships through which God guided me and grew my faith in Him. To me, Acts Church is a community of believers who wholeheartedly put their hands to the plow and bridge gaps.

My visit to Acts was completely unplanned. In an amazing turn of events, I missed the service of the church I was initially planning to join during my campus years in Malaysia, and ended up finding a family and home away from home in Acts instead! Acts Campus Camp 2010 was a turning point for me. The message about choosing to serve the Lord, even though no one was there to ensure I did, deeply resonated with me. I was convicted to dedicate my campus years to pursuing great Actsploits with Jesus!

I prayed for God to lead me to a Malaysian church in Edinburgh where I could feel welcomed, put down roots, and serve. An online search led me to Acts, so I reached out via email and received a warm invitation to visit. After that first visit, the rest was history. I used to drag my feet to church on Sundays, but the warmth of Acts Edinburgh changed that. Now, I look forward to Sundays like a gathering with friends! I’ve also been entrusted to serve, and I’m grateful to God for this church community where I can grow and belong.
