Ministries  > Cell Group


They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

~ Acts 2:42, 47b ~       

 

The cell group is the basic Christian community. The cell group is thus about life. It is about people, not programmes, events, and not even the cell meeting per se.

The cell group is also the basic building block for all other church ministry. It is within the cell environment that every believer will be equipped and prepared to do the work of ministry (Ephesians 4:11-16).
 

At PLMC, we have over 70 cell groups, led by cluster leaders.

 

MISSION
• To be transformed in Christ's love

• To be empowered by the Holy Spirit
• To be equipped for the purpose of ministering (local church), reaching out (community and immediate circle of influence), and extending God's kingdom (the nations)



OBJECTIVES (3Es)
To edify the body of Christ … by loving cell members and ministering to each other.
To evangelise …by loving others outside the cell group and sharing the good news of Jesus.
To exercise the gifts of the Holy Spirit … through releasing words of prophecy and exercising other gifts of the Spirit so as to build up cell members.

 

THE CELL MEETING
In a cell meeting, we do the 4Ws:

 

Welcome is a time of warming up to each other.
Worship is focusing on and blessing God with our praises, and exercising the gifts of the Holy Spirit to encourage and build up cell members.
Word is applying God's Word in order to transform the way we live our lives.
Works is praying for the unsaved in our community, families and friends, planning for the next evangelistic outreach, and doing good works.

 

What makes a successful cell group? It is one that multiplies itself and cares for its members beyond the cell meeting, that is, on the other six days of the week. Our cell groups are intentional in gathering, discipling, and multiplying. The moment we win people into God's kingdom, they are gathered into a cell group. They are then followed up, nurtured, and discipled so as to become effective disciple-makers. An important mark of a disciple is his or her fruitfulness in spiritual multiplication. Thus, all members will eventually be sent out two by two to start their own cell groups.

To ensure that all cell leaders are cared for, apart from being the cell leader of their cell group, they are also part of a Leaders Cell. They enjoy two relationships. The former as a discipler of the flock entrusted to him or her. The latter as part of a cell group where members are accountable to each other for their personal lives, and encouraged by each other in their roles as cell leaders.
