Sharing Recess Revo in St.George's Girls' School & SMJK Chung Hwa Confucian High School

Just last week, we had the open door to go visit St.George's Girls' School and SMJK Chung Hwa Confucian High School to share about Recess Revo again. For SGGS, it was our first time visiting the school ground as we shared to a group of students in McDonalds last year who wanted to see a change in their school. Up to date, they have more than 10 people in their Recess Revo group praying and standing in the gap for their school. We get to share more about Recess Revo as not all of them heard about if before and we believe that they are excited to see more in their school!

We also had the open door to visit SMJK Chung Hwa Confucian High School again to share about Recess Revo to their new Christian Fellowship members. Both the leaders of the CF are excited to see a change taking place in their school and we believe many more testimonies will take place in this school. We thank God that both these schools have teacher advisers who are very supportive and they are praying together with them for their school! Praise God for that and we pray that the Revolution of Love will continue to spread in both these schools through all these young people!

Sharing The Revolution in Tenby International School!

We were excited when Jane Kuan approached us on Facebook to share Recess Revo in her school, Tenby International School. She attended Wildfire Party 2 & caught hold the vision of Recess Revo. We want to praise God that through her, we were able to share this vision in her school. A greater testimony is that she approached her principal about starting Recess Revo & a Christian Fellowship in her school and her principal agreed with the idea. They even have a teacher adviser for the new CF that they are about to start. In less than a week, we managed to get the approval to enter the school to share about Recess Revo.

We shared to a group of students in a classroom & although we only had a very short time to share about it, we believed that the other students will catch the vision too & begin the revolution in their school! Let's continue to sow in prayer for this school & believe that a revolution will begin!

Recess Revo in Chung Ling Private High School!

Chung Ling Private High School is just located beside Chung Ling High School but we never had the opportunity to share about Recess Revo in that school until a student, Alvin Wong approached us as he heard about Recess Revo & he's excited about it too. We met him in early January personally in the school canteen & shared the vision with him. He was so on fire & he started a prayer group with another partner, Samuel. There's also a Bible Study group in his school & he shared everything about Recess Revo to his teacher adviser. Finally, we had the open door to share to the Bible Study group just a few days ago through the effort of Alvin & we praise God for that!

We shared to a group of students in a classroom & their teacher adviser, Mr.Lim was also present to know more about Recess Revo. The crew shared all the slides to the students & we also challenged them to start Recess Revo & do it together with their neighbour, Chung Ling High School which also has a Recess Revo team run by Joshua. After we shared everything, the teacher adviser came up & they started to plan about Recess Revo. We praise God that they caught on the fire right after that & now more people are joining Alvin & Samuel in the prayer group as the Bible Study group is supporting this. Mr.Lim also gave them free mini bibles so that they can bring the bibles to school & display it on their table because we shared about the testimonies that took place by doing that. They even decided to use the Recess Revo T-shirt as their club T-shirts now. God is moving in this school & we pray that this group will continue to grow & bring a REVOLUTION to the school!

The Revolution Has Finally Spread to Mainland, Butterworth!

Just for knowledge, Penang consist of two parts. One is the island and the other one is the mainland which is Butterworth. Yep, they are under Penang too. We've been praying to go into the schools in mainland since we started sharing Recess Revo to the schools in Penang island in June last year. We didn't want the students in the mainland to miss out on what God is doing throughout Malaysia. Finally, we had the chance to go into Butterworth to share Recess Revo to two schools, Jit Sin Bukit Mertajam & Chung Ling Butterworth. They came together under the effort of Ms.Ooi, who is the teacher adviser for the CF in Jit Sin Bukit Mertajam. The CF teacher adviser for Chung Ling Butterworth also came on that day to show her support. Ms.Ooi was so eager to spread this good news to her school students & she even got us letters for us to be able to enter the school to share about Recess Revo.

We met in a classroom in Jit Sin Bukit Mertajam packed with almost 25+ students coming from the both schools. We had Samuel to lead the worship session & then the crew shared everything about Recess Revo to all the students & how God is moving in the schools throughout our nation. As we shared to them, we believed that they had caught on the fire & we claimed the two schools for Jesus. Praise God that Jit Sin Bukit Mertajam have decided to kick start Recess Revo in their school & we believe that many great things are gonna come out from this. We're still praying for the schools in the mainland & that God will open up more doors for us. We thank God that Ms.Ooi is also trying to get us to share the REVOLUTION in Convent Bukit Mertajam in the future. The Revolution Has Finally Begun in the mainland! :)

First Recess Revo in an International School!

Recently, we were in Dalat International School to share about Recess Revo. Thank God for this open door and we were excited to share in this school because Recess Revo has already kick-started when Zachary who was previously from St.Christopher's International Primary School moved to Dalat. He and his brother, Jonathan managed to gather a group of Christians consisting of the 6th graders and 7th graders and we were so encouraged to meet up with all of them. They actually have a room for their activities and a flyer to invite their friends to join them.
One of the testimonies is that they have been consistently having their prayer group since and it grew from 3 to 29 people! That's a big growth and we believe that they will make a big impact in Dalat International School through prayer and Recess Revo.

Our mission was to share more about the vision of Recess Revo to them and we had a short session with the Recess Revo members during their lunch break. Around 20 students attended the session and we had 30 minutes to share everything to them. As we share to them, we believe that they had caught the fire and understand more about Show Up, Stand Up & Speak Up. We challenged them to be different from the other students in their school and to be a positive influence because they portray the image of Jesus.

Also, Dalat International School is actually a missionary school and we pray that these students will be able to reach out to more of their friends. We believe that a revolution will take place in Dalat International School and both the students and ourselves are excited for a positive change to take place. May the fire continue to burn in them and make a difference in this school.

The Revolution has Begun in Ipoh!

We thank God for another open door to share Recess Revo and this time, it's in Ipoh. We were there 2 months ago to share to 10 leaders and one of them, Ming Sheng has caught the fire and he gathered 7 schools together this time. All these schools are actually under the Inter-School Christian Fellowship (ISCF) which organizes a combine CF twice a month. Abel, a student from SMK Anderson is leading ISCF and he himself had caught the fire even before we went to Ipoh to share to them. We met at Elim Gospel Hall and there were 22 students from 7 different schools in Ipoh.


We shared to them about what is happening through this movement in Penang & Malaysia and they were excited about it. We believe all the testimonies were a big encouragement to them and we challenged them to bring a change to Ipoh as well. At the end of the session, 5 schools signed up for Recess Revo while the other 2 are still pending as they want to discuss it with their leaders.

From this trip, we believe that something is going to take place in Ipoh through Recess Revo and we pray that many more schools will come to know about this movement. May they bring a revolution to their schools and impact their fellow peers & teachers. We praise God for this fruitful trip and we are hoping to be visiting Ipoh again soon in the future as we are following up with them. All glory goes to God and let's pray that the revolution will continue to spread in this town!

An open door to share at SMK Hutchings

Praise God for an open door to share Recess Revo at SMK Hutchings during the Religious Emphasis Day. It was a history-making day for the school because it was the first time that the Christians in the school were coming together for a Christian meeting and it was a great privilege for us to be there to be able to share Recess Revo to them. We were invited by Leonard, the school head prefect to come and share about this movement to them because he wants to see a revolution taking place in his school as well.

We were told by the teacher adviser, Mr.Lee that there will be around 10 students but praise God we had 21 students who turned up on that day. We started with a short ice-breaker led by Pragas and we shared about Recess Revo to all the students. We were encouraged to see Mr.Lee's support for all the Christian students.
We run through the whole slide show with them and we believe that they had caught hold of the fire. Many of them came and enquire more about this movement after we shared and there were already plans to start Recess Revo even the day after that. Praise God for such a spirit in the students and the teacher advisor.

We also shared Project Mordecai with Mr.Lee and the leaders as they are planning to start a Christian Fellowship in the school. We managed to discuss more about it during a lunch meal with them and we are looking forward to help the CF in the future.

A Great Opportunity To Share Recess Revo in Alor Setar!

Once again, we had the chance to go into another school CF to share about Recess Revo and this time, it is SMK St.Michael in Alor Setar. We want to thank God for this opportunity to be able to share in this state. We had a great time in this school and we found out that SMK St.Michael was the only school in Alor Setar to have an official CF according to one of their CF teacher advisor, Mr.Joseph Chang. As we entered the school, we prayed that the young people will catch hold of the fire as well. We started with a short ice-breaker to get to know each other as there were 3 newcomers in the CF on that day. After that, we had a time of worship to praise God.

Wilson and Pragas then shared their testimonies about their life before they became a Christian and how God changed them after that.After the sharing, Pragas challenged them if anybody wants to receive Jesus as their God and saviour. Praise God for a boy who responded to that challenge and he was saved on that day. Pragas led him to the sinner's prayer after the CF was over and we got to know him as Jason Yap.

We then shared about Recess Revo to the students of SMK St.Michael and I believe they have caught something out of it. Although there were many of them in the CF who are non-believers, I believe that they can see how God is working through Recess Revo and what the Christians are doing to impact their schools.

After the CF, we managed to get in contact with another school teacher who is Mrs.Peh Lan and we decided to meet up with her as she was excited to hear about Recess Revo. We met up with her at a church building and shared to her everything about Recess Revo. When we were sharing, she was so eager to see her young people in her church and Alor Setar rising up and bringing a change to their schools. She was so excited that she decided to share it to all her youths the next day. It was another open door as we believe they will catch on of the fire and may the fire spread in Alor Setar. She is even taking some of her youths to Penang for the Wildfire Party on the 22nd August. It's great to see their support and we are excited to see a revolution taking place in Alor Setar.

We want to praise God for this trip to Alor Setar as we had the chance to share about Recess Revo. We believe that God will work in this state and the young people will revolutionize their schools for Jesus. May the fire spread and a revolution will begin in Alor Setar.

PCGHS for Jesus! It was a blast time for us!‏

It was a blast Friday for the team as we entered Penang Chinese Girls High School (PCGHS)! As usual, the team prayed in the car before stepping into the school and asked God to move mightily and minister to all the girls that we were going to meet. As we were at the school gate, we bumped into the CF vice president, Eunice Ham. I didn’t know she was the vice president until later, and I kept teasing her “Ham, Ham!” as she took us to where we were supposed to meet the CF for the talk.

Wilson started the meeting off with a short icebreaker and we had introduction of ourselves as there were some students who were not from the CF. All of us had fun and we got to know one another better. After that, Darren and I led them into a time of worship. After the worship session, as usual, Darren and I began to share on Recess Revo to all of them. At that morning, we had 20 students and the CF teacher advisor, Mr. Wilson was present too.

I praise God that all of them had caught hold of the fire and they saw that they could impact their friends through Recess Revo. I also thank God for such a wonderful teacher like Mr. Wilson for encouraging the girls and supporting them even in providing finance for CF.

After the whole event was over, Mr. Wilson shared his vision, that as they were having morning prayer near the school hall, he felt in his spirit that all of the girls should just do some random kindness like making a bookmark for their friends and writing down “Jesus loves you” on it and some words of encouragement as their exam period are drawing near. I thank God for teacher that comes along side and support the student in their walk with the Lord! I then prayed for the students and asked God to empower and bless them as they kick start Recess Revo. We finished at around 12.30pm and we went to the school canteen for lunch with Mr. Wilson and Miss Chew.

After lunch, at 2pm, it was our second meeting with the morning session students who stayed back for the Recess Revo talk. There were about 27 students who attended the talk. We did the same programme as we did in the morning, and I praise God for the response from the students which was the same as the students we met in the morning, they had caught hold of the fire too.

Hearing from the CF president, they have already started prayer every morning in school. One of the morning as they were praying at the school front corridor, they were approached by the Buddhist Society’s teacher advisor and they were told not to do this in front of the other students and stop meetings like this. But I praise God for these students as they did not stop praying about Recess Revo, they just relocated to another spot somewhere else and they continued praying for a change to take place in their school. This prayer team started with a small group of about 3 to 4 people, and right now there are 14 of them praying altogether in the morning. I was very excited to hear that these girls are standing in the gap to pray for their school every morning. And she felt that with Recess Revo, they can even do more. They will be kick starting Recess Revo this coming week after identifying a particular day to run it.

Again, we want to praise God for what God is doing in this school even before we came in to share about Recess Revo. I know it’s going to be a blast to see how God moves in PCGHS. All glory to God for this blast Friday!

Sharing Recess Revo at Children Playground!

We cannot stop when God is moving! Today we shared Recess Revo in a children’s playground. Darren and I were sharing to the afternoon school students from SMJK Heng Ee, Kean Chan and Daniel Wong. This meeting was arranged by Kean Chan.

Because of the place, we had to do our presentation through papers which we printed the slides on. Initially, Daniel was unsure of what Recess Revo is all about. But after hearing through the entire presentation and hearing what God is doing in schools, he began to see that he could use this movement as a tool to reach out to his non-Christian friends and bring them to Christ.

After about 40 minutes of presentation, we prayed for the both of them at the playground and asked them to kick start Recess Revo in the afternoon session in their school. I could see that the Holy Spirit is taking us to places that we could never imagined, e.g. at the playground. We just want to give all glory to God for the way He move and His works to be done! Me & Darren was so happy, that we just do what the Holy Spirit want us to do! We will go where God want us to go! Amen!

SMK Ayer Itam for Jesus!

We had a blast Friday in SMK Ayer Itam! This was like walking into China. The reason I said that is we didn’t now that the CF was conducted in Mandarin. 54 students turned up for CF. After they worship they hand over the time to me say Pastor your time now! I began to share in English and Alvin was interpreting it into Mandarin. Then, when the time came for Darren to share, he shared the next few slides in Mandarin. Wah, it was so cool when we just rest in the Holy Spirit! Hahaha.

As we were sharing, all of us were depending in the Holy Spirit to guide us and hoped that the young people grasp what is Recess Revo all about. All of them were so glued to us and they understood what we shared. As a crew, we knew that without the Holy Spirit, we won't be able to do it. But at the end of the sharing, I knew that the Holy Spirit was there with us throughout the time we were sharing with them.

After the presentation and sharing was over, I prayed for the whole CF and the teacher advisor, asking for God’s blessing and favour to be upon them as they kick start Recess Revo. We managed to speak to the CF president and vice president, and the teacher advisor too. They were so fired up and they want to start Recess Revo in their school. According to Miss Khoo, she will discuss with the CF committee and they will choose a particular day to run Recess Revo. She also invited us to come again in the future to share the Word of God in the CF.

We praise God because we knew that this school has already begun to catch the fire of Recess Revo. As we walked out from the school, as usual, we prayed again and claimed the school for Jesus. We want to give all glory and honour back to the Lord God Almighty for what He has done in SMK Ayer Itam!

First Primary School Started RR in SK Bukit Gelugor!‏

Jeremy Sean, an 11 year old boy, from Sekolah Kebangsaan Bukit Gelugor is the first primary school which has kick started Recess Revo in Penang Island. When I look at this young man, he reminds me of David and I believe God is going to use him mightily to impact his friends and school through Recess Revo.

After hearing all the testimonies about what God is doing in other schools through Recess Revo, he came forward to me and said, “Koko Praggy, I want to start Recess Revo in my school.” I then encouraged him to start by prayer, to just Stand UP in the gap and pray for his school because I believe that one person can make a difference.

Just a few days ago, I was speaking to his father who is Ps Sam Surendran, my senior pastor. He told me that every morning, both he and his son, Jeremy pray together as he drops him off at school. They also went around the school in the morning collecting rubbish for a start to do something in the school. I was very encouraged when I heard about this and I know that Jeremy will definitely make a difference in his school.

So, let us support Jeremy in prayer, that this fire which began in him will keep burning for God. All glory to Jesus for using him even at such a young age!
