Hey there! HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR to all you Chinese people! =) How has your holiday been for the non-Chinese? For me, it has been a great time with family and catching up with rest / sleep! =p … at the same time visiting relatives and getting some angpows. Hehehe… Above all, I can never thank God enough to be living in Malaysia with the different races and still able to live in peace with each other – racial harmony!
OK, back to PGs.. For those of you still trying to figure out what PGs all about? No worries.
WHAT is Marketplace PG? PG (Power Group / Prayer Group) is an hour of an exciting and meaningful lunch together with Christians (not necessary from ACTS Church) and non-Christians friends seasoned with laughter, prayer and value-adding conversations. PG is initiated from the Young Working Adults Ministry from ACTS Church (LIFE). LIFE exists to reach and build a generation of Young Working Adults (YWA) that thrive and find purpose in all that they do, reflecting the DNA and Culture of ACTS Church through Friendship, Marketplace, Relationships, Community using various winning expressions powered by YWA themselves for YWA. We have an exciting LIFE blog at
Do check it out!
Just wanna excite you with some great news on PGs! We would be having PGs every Wednesdays as usual BUT we’re going to do it differently this time. Instead of meeting up for lunch, Cyberjaya PG is thinking of having some intentional light discussions that we all could engaged in.
Our topic for this week would be YOGA! Many Christians today from the West to the East – including Malaysia, has given Yoga a try and said that it has really improved their health to some extend.
What is YOGA?
Yoga is defined as a “mystic discipline by which one seeks to achieve liberation of the self, and union with the supreme spirit, through intense concentration, deep meditation, and practices involving prescribed postures, controlled breathing, and so forth” (Webster’s New World Dictionary/1980).
Yoga is a scientific system of physical and mental practices that originated in India more than three thousand years ago. Its purpose is to help each one of us achieve our highest potential and to experience enduring health and happiness. With Yoga, we can extend our healthy, productive years far beyond the accepted norm and, at the same time, improve the quality of our lives. (Excerpted from Chapter Three of our book, Yoga for the Special Child)
With all that benefits about Yoga.. As a Christian, is it wrong to take YOGA classes? What about taking Yoga as a form of exercise? What do you think? Share with us your views.
And we will definitely discuss this issue at the next PG this Wednesday :: 4 Feb 2009 :: Arif Restaurant, Street Mall :: 12.30 – 1.30pm ::
As you know that we’ll be discussing about Yoga and you know of a friend (Christian / Non-Christian / backslidden Christians) who is working in Cyberjaya, do invite them to join our PG this Wednesday! Do reply over this email on your views about Yoga till we meet this Wednesday!
Let’s start rolling your opinions in! =)
Rgrds, Olivia -
Yo Cybergiants,
PG’s back on again this week! Hope everyone’s had a good rest from the long holiday last weekend. Some might feel refreshed while others would need some time to kick start back those engines to start working again. I know I’m feeling a little lacking in productivity haha…
But anyway, this week is exam week at MMU. Remember last PG I told you guys about the vegetarian joint at the hostel block, so I suppose we can meet there for lunch this wednesday. Same time at 12.00pm. Which hostel block? It’s the one opposite FCM cafe, so I’ll use FCM cafe as a reference point. Walk pass the zebra crossing, go down to the first canteen. You should see a deli selling western food so walk pass it and take a left right after the block to go downhill. The vegetarian joint is the canteen at the bottom of the hill. Parking might be a hassle if you’re trying to find a spot at the hostel block itself, so I suggest a little exercise by parking at FCM and walk there.
Anyway if you have any trouble finding the place give me a call after 11.00pm (I have an exam invigilation till then). Alternatively you can give Shobi a buzz since she’s a hostel local. See you there!
God bless,
Ji Jian
Hi Cybergiants,
Hope most of you had a good rest last week’s public holiday. We had an incredible picnic at Putrajaya. Pics posted on the life blog already!

PG’s on again this week! MMU FCM Cafe will be available since it’s Ramadhan and business is slow. However due to change of security policy you guys will have to obtain visitor passes (bummer…) from the guard house while entering. As a small consolation it’ll be quite empty in terms of parking space as well since it’s the last week of the semester and most of the students are already balik kampunging for the Hari Raya hols.
So it’s a plan? MMU FCM Cafe at 12 as usual then! Drop us a line if you’re coming, or can always buzz me if you need directions. See you soon!
God bless,
Ji Jian

Hey Cybergiants,
Cyber PG’s up this week! Looking forward to lunch, prayer and testimonies from you guys again this wednesday at 12.00pm. Janet’s recommended this place called Bayou Coffeehouse at the lake clubhouse. Wanna give it a shot? Maybe Janet can give us some directions coz I really don’t know where this place is just yet. Maybe I’ll go check it out later in the evening and email the detailed directions to you tomorrow.
FYI, ACTS Cyber service had a ground breaking attendance yesterday. Great to see so many new faces in one service. Also Passion Conference was a blast. Around 4k people attended. Yeah, I was at the threshold age so I went with some people from the MMU Christian Fellowship. Also bumped into a familiar face there (*winks at Jeff). Let’s just say it’s really something to see Chris Tomlin doing Indescribable and How Great is Our God live! Will tell you guys more over PG.
Drop us a line if you’re comin! Look forward to seeing you!
God bless,
Ji Jian
Yo Cybergiants,
Breaking news in Cyber! (well,for me anyway). The NEO shoplots are finally open and I’ve spotted a new joint called The Buddy Cafe. In case you still don’t know where it is, you turn in left after Street Mall if you’re coming from Shell/HSBC direction to a big roundabout and you should see some black shophouses with colourful windows. That’s where the place is.
So what say we have our PG this week over there and give it a shot. Same time same day, 21/7/08 Wednesday at 12.00pm. Do remember to invite some buddies since it’s the Buddy Cafe (corny… I know…) and bring along your testimonies or prayer requests if you have any.
Looking forward to another great PG outing with yall.
God bless,
Ji Jian
