AOY Bootcamps
How to Study the Bible weekends

Over the month of June, the AOY Bootcamp teams visited churches across Peninsular Malaysia to run the intensive 3 day How to Study the Bible weekends again in the local regions. Some churches invited us back to visit from past years, but this year, we visited a new region – Melaka!

Penang:
– Lighthouse SDA English Church (June 14 – 16)The churches in Penang came together to Lighthouse to study the book of 1 Timothy. It was a fruitful weekend full of energetic discussions. We were especially impressed by the sheer numbe of vibrant youth in Penang who are so excited to study the Bible! We were shown that no matter what the age, or where you’re starting at, God can always speak through you as long as you have a willing heart. We pray that these youth will continue to grow in Christ and will always be excited to study the Bible.
Klang Valley:
– KLEC (Kuala Lumpur English Church) (June 14-16)KL English Church went through the book of 1 John together. This is not the first time HTSTB was taught at KLEC, so we were able to tackle a more challenging book of the Bible this year – the first epistle of John! We especially love small, intimate groups because they promote discussion and learning! The AOY team were especially thankful because they not only got to share, but they also learnt more things through the discussion groups. We praise God that the Holy Spirit is able to continually teach us, and that the Bible is a never-ending lesson book.
Melaka: 
– Melaka SDA English Church (June 21-23)This was AOY Bootcamp’s first time to Melaka! We faced many challenges even on the first night itself but we praise God for the church members who would overcome them so easily! On the first night, the church gate was locked and no one had the key, but we all climbed over the gate to have dinner and start studying the Bible! It was inspiring, to see men and women, young and old, from baby to elderly, climb over the gate, excited to open the Bible together. We went through How to Study the Bible concepts together, going through Psalms, 1 John, and a Parable! This was an exciting church, and we hope to come back soon!! It was a blessed weekend.
