Planning for 2008


In 2008, we will basically continue to develop our ministry in the many established area, including campus ministry support, worship ministry through the Jubiliant and Jubilization events, training ministry through I.D.zone, media ministry through PP959 radio program and podcast as well as the many other blogs and podcast programs, local church support ministry as well as the outreach ministries through the services offered by AFC Student Centre. We will strive to stay focus on our mission in discipleship through various creative expressions.

In terms of public event, in 2008 we are planning a total of 6 Jubilization worship discipleship events, 9 I.D.zone discipleship training courses and 2 conferences relating to youth ministry. For our student volunteers, we will also organize a training day camp, the annual celebration and a retreat camp.

Campus ministry and local church support ministry will continue to be the two main emphases in 2008. We will continue to empower students in UBC and SFU for campus mission through training, mentoring and operational support. We will continue to seek collaboration with more local churches in reaching out to Chinese students. We will also provide consultation and resources to local churches in their youth ministry. The needs of the local church will remain to be an important factor of consideration when we plan for events and ministry development.

AFC Vancouver will also actively seek opportunity in developing new ministry among Mandarin-speaking students to respond to the growing demands.
