Bring along your questions and personal experiences as we reflect on how we can live faithfully for Christ in today’s world. 📅 Sunday, 4 October ⏰ 2.00–4.00pm 📍 The Chapel

Freedom in Christ had their finale session on last Sunday! One Learner shared… “Through the Steps to Freedom, I realised I was carrying a lot of misconceptions or lies. I think the sessions that really helped me out were on my identity. I do actually repeat to myself a lot: "I am a saint, I'm a holy one" I'm now trying to continue to really rid myself of all these lies.” The FIC Team thanks God for what each Learner experienced in hearing the truth and how to fight battles in their minds or break strongholds! Praise God!
