Message from<br />
Bro Edwin addresses<br />
his opening speech<br />
for ICM Father‟s<br />
Heart Conference<br />
Paul says in Colossians 1:6, “All over the<br />
world this gospel is bearing fruit and<br />
growing, just as it has been doing among<br />
you since the day you heard it and<br />
understood God‟s grace in all its truth.”<br />
(NIV 1984)<br />
In the past, the work of the Lord strived<br />
through sacrifices of many men and<br />
women and today it is no exception. The<br />
work of the Lord is still bearing fruit and is<br />
growing because many willing to sacrifice<br />
their time, talents and money to see the lost<br />
world coming to the saving knowledge of<br />
Christ.<br />
Praise God the Lord has opened doors for<br />
ICM to start a new work in Nepal and<br />
currently we have 17 students who will be<br />
graduating and ready to serve God by next<br />
year. We will start a second training centre<br />
early next year at the mountainous region<br />
of Nepal.<br />
The work we are having with the<br />
Philippines National Police (PNP) is also<br />
bearing much fruit with more men in<br />
uniform attending church. One of the<br />
Generals in PNP in his speech<br />
acknowledged the work of ICM and we<br />
were also interviewed by 2 television<br />
stations.<br />
The work in Democratic Republic of the<br />
Congo is in its second year and fifteen of<br />
the first batch students have preaching<br />
points. We have to limit the intake of the<br />
second year students to twenty students as<br />
we do not have space.<br />
The work in East and West Malaysia has<br />
also borne fruit. We are now networking<br />
with a denomination and through this<br />
partnership two churches were planted.<br />
In Indonesia, the training has reached<br />
Papua and there is a growing cry for more<br />
workers. In East Timor, we are looking for<br />
fulltime Bahasa speaking workers.<br />
We also praise God for the many, whose<br />
life has been touched and transformed by<br />
the short term mission (STM). For the first<br />
time we had the deaf and mute go to<br />
missions. It was truly encouraging to see<br />
their love and passion for the lost and we<br />
pray that many more will join us this<br />
coming year.<br />
The work of ICM is bearing fruit and<br />
growing because of the many men and<br />
women who have given their time, talent<br />
and finances to seek and save the lost and<br />
we at ICM are grateful to them and most<br />
of all we give all glory, honor and praise to<br />
our Lord and God for without whom we<br />
will not be able to accomplish anything.<br />
Have a Blessed Christmas and a Fruitful<br />
New Year 2011!<br />

FAMOUS QUOTES ABOUT<br />
MISSIONS<br />
“God is not looking for people of<br />
great faith, but for individuals<br />
ready to follow Him.”<br />
--- Hudson Taylor ---<br />
“Lost people matter to God, and<br />
so they must matter to us.”<br />
--- Keith Wright ---<br />
“If you take missions out of the<br />
Bible, you won‟t have anything<br />
left but the covers.”<br />
--- Nina Gunter ---<br />
“<strong>Mission</strong>s is not the „ministry of<br />
choice‟ for a few hyperactive<br />
<strong>Christian</strong>s in the church. <strong>Mission</strong>s<br />
is the purpose of the church.”<br />

Malaysian & Indonesian (MALINDO) Service of<br />
FGA Centre Langkawi had launched a training<br />
programme using ICM BSIB modules on 8 th of<br />
May 2010, which marked the first anniversary of<br />
the Bahasa church. Bro Dorai represented ICM to<br />
introduce the ICM Bible In A Briefcase (BSIB)<br />
modules. †<br />
“Nothing Except The<br />
Truth – Jesus” or<br />
simply, “Nett†” is the<br />
slogan of the programme<br />
"The concern for world<br />
evangelization is not something<br />
tacked on to a man's personal<br />
<strong>Christian</strong>ity, which he may take<br />
or leave as he chooses. It is<br />
rooted in the character of the God<br />
who has come to us in Christ<br />
Jesus. Thus, it can never be the<br />
province of a few enthusiasts, a<br />
sideline or a specialty of those<br />
who happen to have a bent that<br />
way. It is the distinctive mark of<br />
being a <strong>Christian</strong>."<br />

“As each one of us has received a gift, minister it to one another,<br />

It was indeed a trip full of surprises and wonders. What had<br />
been planned was totally altered due to the unexpected<br />
circumstances. As Proverbs 19:21 says, “Many are the plans in<br />
a man’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails” (NIV).<br />
“All these years, I’ve been to many trips, but this was the best<br />
Cameron trip so far!” said Bro Steven Toh, leader of the team<br />

To the surprise of all,<br />

along too.<br />
Not known to the team,<br />
one of the houses in<br />

Salim’s parents!<br />
When the team visited Salim’s house, he looked<br />
gloomy and weak. All this while he stayed at home<br />
and was jobless because of the pain he suffered<br />
due to kidney stones. After saying ‘yes’ to receive<br />
Jesus Christ, the team prayed for him.<br />
Then, his countenance changed! Salim started to<br />
speak in tongues and raised his hands up in the<br />

exposure trip for three of us since we are new at<br />

“The people there live a very<br />
simple life. When we are back to<br />
KL, life gets complicated.<br />
Thinking about it, I feel the need<br />
to encourage those who complain<br />
how bad and unfortunate they<br />
are.” Joanne Sim<br />
“Before this, if someone told me about going to inland for<br />
missions, I would laugh it off and say „There are many other<br />
things more fun than that!‟ But now, I would say that the week we<br />
spent together is the best week thus far in my life! Love is not<br />
passive, it‟s to be expressed in words and actions. God led me to<br />
open up myself to others. I couldn‟t get enough from Him because<br />
throughout this trip, it‟s all about love.” Dante Lum
“God impressed me that the life I am<br />
living here in KL is just a dream. When<br />
I was back from the trip, I felt empty<br />
because my life here doesn‟t mean<br />
anything. Wherever people are<br />
suffering, whoever needs the Gospel<br />
and encouragement, that‟s the reality to<br />
me. <strong>Mission</strong>s just cannot be expressed<br />
in words. You have to live through it,<br />
you have to touch, see and hear it there<br />
in person. Thank You Lord Jesus, it was<br />
just brilliant.” Brian Tang<br />

Praise God that all went well with this conference! It can<br />
never be done without His provision and providence.<br />
ICM Malaysia would like to thank all the participants for<br />
coming along to learn more and get equipped in their own<br />
ministries; to all speakers for giving us the insights and<br />
encouragement to the people; not forgetting all the<br />
sponsors, supporters and intercessors for making this<br />
conference a success.<br />
God bless you abundantly.<br />
ICM Malaysia held a conference a few years ago, but this<br />
time around seeing the need among the Bahasa speaking<br />
churches, we came to agreement to have one with the<br />
theme based on 1 Corinthians 4:15, “Even though you have<br />
ten thousands guardians in Christ, you do not have many<br />
fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the<br />
gospel.”<br />
To speak on “Father’s Heart”, we had invited Ps Jaap<br />
Dieleman from the Netherlands as the theme speaker, along<br />
with Bro Khoo Hin Hiong and Dr Wong Hong Meng who<br />
spoke on “Team Building” and “Managing Church Finances”<br />
respectively.<br />
A total of 117 people from 36 churches and organisations,<br />

especially the Orang Aslis, and Bumiputras from Sabah &<br />
Sarawak. Among them are Ps Pakpahan and his friends<br />
from Sumatra, Indonesia.<br />
On the first night, Bro Edwin opened the conference with a<br />
sharing of the work of ICM and that through the ministry of<br />
ICM, hundreds of churches had been planted by ordinary<br />
people via networking with their churches. He also<br />
challenged the pastors not to see the incapabilities of their<br />
members but to disciple and send them out, like Jesus did.<br />
Bro Edwin then closed the night with a prayer that all<br />
would have the Father’s Heart in these last days.<br />
After a time of praise and worship and breakfast, the<br />
second day session started off with Dr Wong Hong Meng,<br />
speaking on “Managing Church Finances”. He made it clear<br />
that the finances for ministry and church is a separate<br />
entity from personal and family finances, regardless the<br />
size of ministry and church and whether it’s an individual<br />
ministry.<br />
In the afternoon, Bro Khoo took over with a brief sharing on<br />
the relationship between a father and a son. He shared that<br />
a leader is unable to love the sheep under his guard without<br />
first understanding and experiencing the Father’s Love<br />
personally. At night, Bro Khoo got the people to visualize<br />
the importance of teamwork in the work of God’s Kingdom.<br />
He stressed that each team member has a role to play in<br />
order to have multiplication.<br />

On the third and the fourth day, Ps Jaap Dieleman journeyed<br />
together with the people through the theme. He highlighted<br />
the differences between a Father and a King, and between<br />
Real Apostle and False Apostle. He mentioned the need to<br />
forgive those who had misled us in wrong doctrines.<br />
Throughout his sessions, he shared about the burden to<br />
father the fatherless.<br />
A workshop was also held to discuss about the challenges<br />
the church of Malaysia is facing currently. Ps Alfred Tais<br />
from National Evangelical <strong>Christian</strong> Fellowship (NECF) was<br />
invited to share on current issues and to encourage the<br />
pastors and leaders who minister among Bahasa speaking<br />
people. A panel consisting Ps Alfred, Bro Edwin and Bro<br />
Jimmy was formed to give feedback and answer questions<br />
on the issues discussed.<br />
Besides the sessions, there were time for games too.<br />
Badminton, table tennis and “takraw” (rattan ball) were<br />
The panelists giving feedback<br />
“What can we do for the Church?”<br />

Dancing to the Lord…<br />
among the games we enjoyed together. Throughout the<br />
conference, many testimonies were heard on how ICM Bible<br />
School In A Briefcase (BSIB) had blessed individuals and<br />
churches. The conference ended with Holy Communion and<br />
prayer of impartation.<br />
In this conference, we shared much laughter and tears, sang<br />
and danced together, encouraging each other with our own<br />
experiences and testimonies. It was truly a time which<br />
many, if not all, will remember for the rest of our life.<br />
God’s love embraced everyone, bringing new breath into<br />
every life.<br />

that it was the worst experience in my life because<br />
everything wasn‟t going fine in my own ways! But I<br />
learned that only when we are willing to surrender all to<br />
Him that everything comes in accordingly.” Alex Koh<br />

headhunting in the early years. Two<br />

were hung in their longhouses, to be<br />

I am a lecturer by profession.<br />
I got to know about ICM when I attended the Thanksgiving Night in January this year, at the<br />
invitation of my former church friend, John Nehru. Before that, I did not know about the<br />
existence of ICM. Though I have done my own Orang Asli missions work in Simpang Pulai<br />
and in Muadzam Shah, joining ICM this year have enhanced my own ministry among the<br />
Orang Aslis. I have learnt how to prepare myself spiritually for preaching and praying for<br />
the sick in Bahasa.<br />
This year I joined in a number of ICM mission trips, and I am very happy with the way things<br />
are being organized and done. Whereas in the past I was not properly organized whenever I<br />
go for any mission trips, in ICM I learnt the proper way of organizing mission trips, right<br />
down to the minutest detail. I learnt new things from each of these mission trips.<br />
And the opportunity to meet other <strong>Christian</strong>s from different churches and denominations who<br />
have the same passions and desires for missions is another factor why ICM appeals to me.<br />
No matter which background we come from, we are all united to bring the good news to the<br />
unsaved. I find this very apparent in ICM. Furthermore, the staff in ICM have been very<br />
wonderful, helpful and caring.<br />
I am privileged being part of this organization, and joining them in this glorious work that<br />
they are doing for God's glory. My only prayer is for more <strong>Christian</strong>s to play an active part<br />
in missions work, whether locally or abroad. Giving financially or being a prayer partner is<br />
nothing compared with actually going into the mission field yourself.<br />
To GOD be the glory. † Peter Yee<br />
