On 20 to 25 September 2009, a team of 16 City Harvest Church staff and members embarked on a mission trip to Glory Christian Center, located in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia.
The contemporary church, led by William Vun, has a great hunger for God, and has began preparing for the evangelistic weekend with Kong Hee, Senior Pastor of City Harvest Church, weeks before the actual event. Some members even went to online social networking site Facebook to spread the news about the evangelistic weekend. The members’ fervency paid off, with many new friends coming to church that weekend.

During the services, Kong preached powerfully on salvation, healing and prosperity. These messages impacted the hearts of the people, many of whom were first-timers to church. The relevance of the messages brought home the truth of God’s love and mercy, and hundreds of people responded to the altar call.
Truly, the mission trip was a success. Not only were new believers added to the church, the members were also strengthened and edified by the preaching of the word.
That weekend, Glory Christian Center experienced a breakthrough record attendance of 1,213.
