Jesus was often found in the homes of ordinary people like Mary and Martha. Luke paints a domestic picture of hustle and bustle, sibling rivalry and discipleship. He teaches us sublime truths regarding work, worry, devotion and focus in life. Come and learn from this charming story.
In a world of competing demands it is hard to be focused on what should be paramount in our lives. King David spoke of the “one thing” he desired more than anything else. Both Jesus and Paul spoke of “one thing”. What are they trying to tell us? Come and find out!
In October, we had the pleasure of having Clement Vedanayagam as guest speaker.

Reason and faith in God are considered to be incompatible. Reason and logic are seen to be important to our everyday lives while faith and religion are relegated to a space where thinking is unnecessary. On Sunday we will explore whether there is any place for common sense in religious faith and whether it is reasonable to believe in God and spiritual matters.
Very many books have been written about Jesus Christ. He has been portrayed as a teacher, magician, prophet, rebel, martyr, failed revolutionary etc. But who was he really? The Bible has credible eye witness accounts that give a clear picture of his life on earth. We will also peer behind the curtain of history into his divine origins. Come and meet this unique person who is both human and, yes, more that human.
February 4 at 5pm at Westgate Alliance Church
Speaker: Abraham Ninan
Topic: “The Model Faith Community”
We are all meant to live in community. Yet how do we do this, given our many differences? We are divided by ethnicities, temperaments and goals. Acts chapter 2 tells of what can only be described as the model faith community. We will study this passage and explore how we can emulate the early church in our 21st Century setting.
November 5 at 5pm at Westgate Alliance Church
Speaker: Abraham Ninan
Topic: “The Puzzle of the Cross”
Why did Jesus die? Why did He die such a cruel death? Was He a victim of Roman power or the jealously of religious leaders? Was He disappointed and die as a martyr to a cause? Every thinking individual has to contemplate this puzzle. The Bible says that He died for our sins. We will try to unpack this statement at our ICCW service. Join us for an evening of worship, study, fellowship, and dinner.

The cartoon character, Charlie Brown, famously said that he loved humanity but could not stand people. We find those nearest to us to be the most irritating and difficult to love. And so it is a challenge to follow Paul’s teaching in Ephesians 4 to be completely gentle, humble and patient, forgiving each other and living in harmony within the church. These instructions, surprisingly, follow his lofty teaching that informed us that we are the very children of God and citizens of heaven. Join us this Sunday as we explore this theme. – Abraham Ninan
Bible Readings: Mark 10:35-45; Ephesians 4:1-16
One of Paul’s remarkable traits was his prayer life. Paul’s instructive epistle to the Ephesians is bathed in prayer. He recognizes that the wonderful blessings that God has for us cannot be attained but through prayer. Hence he prays that the church would have the power to understand the limitless dimensions of God’s love, the riches of His grace and the certain hope we have in Christ. Come and learn with us.
Pastor Josh Singh will be speaking on “Amazing Grace”.
