faith music

Greetings peeps,

Thought of taking some time to share the ministry I m involved in. Music has been playing a very important role in the church as much as other ministries and here at the church that I m serving, Faith Christian Centre, music is something we all passionate about because we believe in the cultural mandate that music is a gift from God. With that, Faith Music exist to use this gift of music for Him.

Faith Music have been one of the important ministry over the years in FCC - training musicians, providing music classes, preparing them for the worship team ministry and even giving opportunity to members to be part of album production. Faith Music have already released its debut album "Dream" and the second album would be out soon.

Week in week out we hold music classes to guide people in their musical journey, whether it's learning guitar or singing. The FM instrument classes are held every Saturday night 830pm till 1030pm. It's a friendly environment where every walks of life are able to come together with the common interest of music. So far, classes we are offering are guitar, bass, drums, keyboard, vocals. I'll be teaching vocals mainly in case you are wondering.

Of course, for more updates on Faith Music, these are the links you can check out :- ilovefcc.com and the FB group.

As a closing, just want to share the article that I wrote for FCC website about our recent launch for the classes' new term, hope it gives you all an idea what's all about. On that night, THIS ROAD albums were given away as one of the lucky draw prizes, if you see scroll further down, I even get to find time to sign the CD. haha.

Faith Music Launch

27th February 2010
by Tim Lim | photos by Eric Tai & Kim Loong

Some people said that the new year really kicks off after Chinese New Year and we at Faith Music feel the same way too. With the tagline, Brand New Start" , 27th February 2010 Saturday Night marks the new start for Faith Music instrument class.

It's Faith Music's vision to experience 3 main things - to have fellowship with each other, to dig deep into the word of God and to use our gifts for His kingdom. That basically forms the flow for the night. About 80 plus people turn out and the opening night was pretty like any orientation day that students would experience - games, presentation, speeches and then breaking into classes.

Overall, it was a good start and we hope through this fresh start, we can raise a new generation of worshippers who will be passionate for God and His kingdom.

Feel free to dropby at FCC to find out more about these classes. Bring along some friends as well to meet people who are all passionate about music.

I hope you will enjoy this entry. Would be back more for updates.

Cheers.

welcome to the year of the Tiger..

Greetings everyone..

I know lately we been quiet a bit but in the midst of the noisy firecrackers, let me take this opportunity to wish everyone here a prosperous Chinese New year and also Valentine's day.

I guess it's another chance for us to begin 2010 with a bang so I pray all of you will be blessed in everything that you do this year.

Before I close, I m sure some might be asking what's next for TL project, since the last gig was in KK in December. March, there may be two spots so stay tuned for more information. Another visit back to Ipoh again might take place in few months time and on 1st May 2010, I will be part of my KL church's 2nd album launch. At the same time, been pressing myself to write new materials. Hopely this can lead me to see how the direction of the next album will turn out, but let me focus on promoting this 1st material/album finish.

This Road is still available so please promote it as much as possible.

I will keep everyone updated but for now, have a great year of the Tiger ahead!

40th entry of the blog

Greetings, hope your 2010 have been fruitful so far..

If you notice that on your right screen where it use to be the playlist of some of my songs are there but now it's missing. Oh well, something wrong with Imeem.com which resulted the list is not there. So if you are looking for preview and looking to listen some songs from me, you have to dropby at my MySpace site for the time being. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Just a reminder that my CDs are also available in Gladsounds. Currently, it's only around KL so far so if you want to get the CDs, go to any Gladsounds branch in KL. For Perak, you can contact St Peter Church's Ipoh while in Sabah, All Saints Cathedral is the place you can search for the CD.

There might be some gigs in March so stay tuned for further announcements. Till then, will be busy writing new materials and also busy with my music ministry at Faith Christian Centre.

Will keep in touch with you guys then. Much love.

Tim Lim's Album Tour & Diocesan Youth Camp

4th to 11th December 2009
by Timothy Lim

From 4th December until 11th December, I led a team from FCC to Kota Kinabalu on a tour to two churches; then subsequently joined the annual Diocese English Youth camp. We embarked on this journey to promote FCC to the youths and also to impact the next generation.

We visited the youth fellowship of two churches in Kota Kinabalu - Good Samaritan and All Saints' Cathedral - where we joined them for worship and icebreakers while using songs from my debut album as a tool to share with them. As bridges were built, we eventually joined them for fellowship and hung out with them.

Next on the agenda for us, after touring those two churches was the Diocese English Youth camp. We were told this is the biggest attendance ever for the camp - about 335 plus campers! Of course, being in the camp allowed us and the youths from all over the Sabah Diocese to know each other better through the fellowships and programs. The theme of the camp is called DIG DEEP, where everyone was given an opportunity to study the Gospel of Mark and all of us learned how to dig deep into God's word together. Apart from that, we also led worship in a few sessions and it was really a great experience to see youths getting passionate about worshiping God - whether they are jumping or lifting their hands to Him.

Overall, we had a great time in Kota Kinabalu, ministering and fellowshiping with the youths. We sincerely thank everyone who has supported us in this tour especially in prayer. We also want to appreciate the hospitality that was given to us by the Diocese, Good Samaritan church and All Saints' Cathedral.

Lastly, I would like to close this sharing with a Bible verse from Ecclesiastes 12:1a - "Remember your Creator in days of your youth" - a clear reminder for us all to continue to fix our eyes on God in everything that we do.

Much love.

You may say this is little overdue..but it's better late than never..

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

Yes it's the year 2010. As THIS ROAD has already been launched close to 4 months already, I firstly must thank God for His leading and blessing so far. Besides, I personally would love to thank everyone for the tremendous support so far to my project.

Certainly there were great memories when we were on the road - tour to Ipoh and KK in particular. Thank you all who came to the concerts and purchase my album. Please do continue to help me in promoting the album to your friends and family.

As 2010 has already dawned upon us, all I can say is there are tour gigs lined up but most of it are not confirm yet. Of course, love to tour Ipoh and KK but let's see how it all comes to. Besides that, I'll be involved in overseeing my church's new album as well - stay tuned about it. At the same time, I would be starting to write some new materials - hoping all of you get hear new things from me in future :)

Please continue to support me as I continue on in this journey. Looking forward for a great year ahead!
