mid-term retreat

Every semester, we hold a Mid-Term Retreat (MTR) during our recess week to come together as a community, recollect ourselves, and turn our gaze back towards Jesus. MTR is always a blessed time spent in prayer, worship, adoration, and much, much more.

 

Read our community members' MTR testimonies below.

​

Coming into MTR, I recalled being very hesitant. I was frustrated with God, even angry with him for being distant when I needed him. University has been tough. At times I felt that my best was not enough which led to burnouts. Throughout the MTR, God revealed to me to place my hope in him, rather than on what he has to offer me. God is the only endless supply of “power source” that was only able to satisfy my heart’s desires. I learned the beauty of waiting upon the Lord, knowing that God’s will is what’s best for me.

Before coming into MTR, I was drained and jaded from the half a semester that has just passed. I was frustrated too, feeling that I was regressing into my old, JC self, overly caught up with perfectionism. yet, in the most timely manner, Jesus gently spoke to me through the MTR session.

 

He allowed me to realised that what I have been hoping in is what He gives me, not in Him. through the fellowship too, I realised how blessed I am to have friends who keep me grounded on the journey. as school resumes, I am invited to allow myself to be open and receptive to the mysterious ways the Lord will show up for me. that everything will fall in place as He promises me. while the road ahead will be tough, I know that the Father takes my hand and leads me to where I need to be.
