The success of the first “Enriching Life Series” among Pastor Wu Yuzhuang’s (WYZ) adult cell groups led to its sequel, “Enriching Life Series 2”, which took place in October.
The first series, held in July 2008, taught members how to build relationships with friends, how to find the right partner and how to be a better companion in marriage. The series ended off with a spectacular event at Mount Faber where couples were given the opportunity to learn ballroom.jpg”>

Quoting a personal example, he shared about being elected “Mr Ekklesia” years back at a dinner and dance event. At that time, he was struggling with his self-image and considered being voted the “most handsome” a big joke. He hated the title “Mr Ekklesia” and wanted desperately to pass it on to next year’s winner. God eventually renewed his thinking and restored his confidence and self-image.
Many members were touched by his message, and felt encouraged to embrace the truth of who they are in Christ. “I feel that the message on self-image is relevant to people from all stages of life. Even as a student it’s easy to get into negative confession when faced with pressure. I am determined to start to confess positively into my spirit and reap a good harvest,” says Isaac Chua, a student from Singapore Management University (SMU).
“The series has motivated and challenged many of us to renew and change the view of ourselves both inwardly and outwardly,” says relationship manager Diana Tay. “We are definitely looking forward to the next two sessions — already we are more confident in finding the right partner and reaching out in the marketplace!”
