We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.
– Colossians 1: 28

Your spiritual well-being matters. Our pastors and church leaders are concerned about and interested in the growth of every Wesleyan’s faith.

The Discipleship and Nurture ministry’s key mission is to equip individuals in their life-long journey of faith and also to enable them to develop their God-given talents for works of service in God’s Kingdom.

Companions In Christ

CIC is a 28-session journey that moves through five parts: Christian journey, scripture, prayer, call, and spiritual guidance. Through the journey, you will:

  • explore the depths of Scripture, learn to listen to God through it, and allow your life to be shaped by the Word;
  • experience new dimensions of prayer, try fresh ways of opening to God, and learn what it means to practise the presence of God;
  • reflect on Christ’s call in your life and discover anew the gifts that God is giving you for living out your personal ministry;
  • grow together with fellow participants as a Christian community and gain skills in learning how small groups in the church become settings for spiritual guidance.

The success of the main CIC programme has led the course originators to introduce the following shorter modules:

  1. Exploring the Way (7 sessions)
  2. The Way of Forgiveness (9 sessions)
  3. The Way of Blessedness (10 sessions)
  4. The Way of Grace (10 sessions)
  5. The Way of Prayer (11 sessions)
  6. The Way of Discernment (11 sessions)
  7. The Way of Scripture (8 sessions)
  8. The Way of Transforming Discipleship (7 sessions)

The Discipleship & Nurture (D&N) Committee has offered the first two shorter modules and will be starting two classes on The Way of Blessedness next year. Other than Exploring the Way, which is open to all, the other seven shorter modules are only open to those who have completed the main 28-session CIC programme.

The entire CIC series focuses on participants' experiences of God and discovery of spiritual practices that help them to share more fully in the life of Christ. It aims to help participants grow spiritually by enabling them to immerse themselves through the spiritual disciplines of prayer, scripture, ministry, worship, study and Christian conversation.

All the resources in the series explore classic spiritual practices and invite participants to develop daily patterns that open their lives to more authentic and deeper relationships with God and with one another.

Once a Companion, always a Companion!
