My Spiritual Journey (MSJ) is an open, class series for getting people know more about the basics and values of Christianity, entirely based on Biblical principles. It has also become the foundation of discipleship and leadership in Gereja Mawar Sharon (GMS) and Rose of Sharon Church (ROSC).

In mid-2022 I secretly joined the Education department of GMS Jakarta to help them manage all the students, especially MSJ 1, 2, and 3. I quickly realized that these great classes are still managed by a small number of people (40-ish), but well, we can serve tens of thousands of students in a year!

Who said working in a department that just schedule Zoom meetings and take notes of attending participants? Having some expertise back then in digitalizing HIMTI BINUS' events back then, I decided to create another Telegram bot to automatically generate contact cards from a single spreadsheet!

This year, as we decided to hold more classes, we expect the numbers to double, or even triple. Of course, this is all made possible by everyone, the church who actively find for missing souls and guide everyone to receive, walk, and lead in Christ.

As our Jakarta region expanded to Jakarta-Tangerang-Kelapa Gading, our church administration region was even more entrusted and merged with GMS Jawa Barat to form a large region, GMS Jakarta Jawa Barat Banten (JJB). Our Education team has expanded, too, that we have to adapt with the planting of new churches, which means a whole new location that we should serve as well.

But unfortunately, that Telegram bot had to be shut down as we move to a new administration and attendance system by the church. And that could be a good thing as I will leave Indonesia over the upcoming weeks.

That said, thank you to God and the greater ministry team to make our great efforts possible ❤️
