Christmas is a time of surprises – things that take our breath away. Life, at its best, is not really measured by the breaths that we take, but by the breaths that we miss. Times like Christmas when the things that cannot be, are. I don’t think it’s remarkable at all that at the time [...]

This season is usually one that is marked by many activities that are part of our ministry in The Salvation Army. Often times, in the hustle and bustle, we find it difficult to prepare and focus [...]

It was one of those rare moments that come upon you when least expected. It was a serendipitous moment of great value. Donna and I had turned off the incessant chatter of the TV and were upstairs making our initial attempts at Christmas preparations. She was in the kitchen baking some favourite Christmas treats from [...]

I stood on the upper deck of a mall recently and watched the people on the lower level walk feverishly from one store to another. Some were carrying bags, some were carrying cups of coffee, and others looked as if they were deep in thought – probably looking for that perfect Christmas gift. I remember [...]

I spent my summer at Zemabawk Corps in Mizoram, India Eastern Territory. The Commanding Officer looked after three Corps and I was there, assisting the Officer, throughout the summer. There are more than 700 soldiers at Zemabawk Corps and it was really a blessing for me to spend my time there. The people at Zemabawk [...]
Praying Scripture – Micah 6:8-10
He has shown you,
O mortal, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.
Living Scripture - Psalm 25:3
No one who hopes in you
will ever be put to shame.
CFOT was pleased to welcome special guests Colonels Floyd and Tracey Tidd to our In Sunday on January 22, 2012.
The focus of their message was “Hope” and cadets and officers shared stories of life situations that may have seemed hopeless but which eventually brought them to know hope.
This In Sunday was also blessed by the attendance of our Field Based Training cadets – Peck-Ee Wong and Leonard Heng, and Kim and Darryl Burry (and their family).
