FROM THE NATIONAL DIRECTOR

Yap Kim Meng

Yap Kim Meng has been on staff with The Navigators, Singapore since 1984. He has a passion for disciple-making and leading people to encounter Jesus Christ in the Scriptures. One of the burdens the Lord has placed on Kim Meng is to build on the strong foundations of disciple-making in Singapore, to raise up ‘spiritual generations of labourers who will live and disciple among the lost,’ locally and among the nations. His desire is that every person in the ministries of the Singapore Navigators will lead and serve in their respective ministries with eyes singled to God’s glory. The motivation and end goal of The Navigators ministries is for the Glory of God and God alone.

Over the past few months I have been reading the passages surrounding one of the key verses for our Navigators' generational Vision—2 Timothy 2:2. These passages motivate me to faithfully persevere in advancing the gospel in spite of suffering.

August 2019

It’s that time of the year that we stand together with the rest of our countrymen to celebrate our national day. This year, Singapore celebrates her bicentennial anniversary of Sir Stamford Raffles’ landing in Singapore, as well as her 54th birthday since her independence from the Federation of Malaysia in 1965.

July 2019

National University of Singapore (NUS) ministry staff Ryoo Jae Kwan and Jerrell See, together with three other labourers, met James* during their recent one-month mission trip to Fiji. James was in the middle of his Degree in Biology exams and, being the eldest son in the family, was stressed with the burden of excelling academically. He paused his studies and listened attentively to the two strangers as they shared their testimonies.

“Souls are more important than sleep!” proclaimed a live responder during the recent Celebration of Hope (COH) rally (17-19 May). Despite having to stay up till 2:30 a.m., this live responder remained committed, as she chatted online with a contact who had made a decision to follow Jesus, after watching a live-streaming of the rally.

Thank you for your faithful giving and prayers. In mid-March, close to 70 of us, including children, spouses and office staff, went to Bangkok, Thailand for our NavStaff Family Retreat. We thank God that our initial apprehensions about the smog and impending elections were unfounded. We had a blessed time of fellowship and mutual encouragement.
