We are excited to announce our 21st year of partnership with Central Shallom School in Dili,  Timor-Leste! This year, from July 20th to July 26th, we have a unique opportunity to make a difference in the lives of children, from kindergarten to high school.

Mission Highlights:

  • Classroom Outreach: We will go classroom to classroom, conducting 40-minute sessions to bring the Gospel to the children through engaging activities like games, crafts, and object lessons.
  • Practical Help: Pastor Thomas has managed to bring together a remarkable team of Singapore medical doctors, dentists, and NUS trainee nurses to attend to the children and teacher’s physical needs for 2 days during the trip.
  • Comprehensive Support: Alumnus and local guides will assist us in translation and logistics, ensuring a smooth and impactful trip.
  • Commitment in Prayer: Prior to the mission trip, there will be a commitment to prayer and four monthly preparation meetings, either online or physically, to ensure we are spiritually and practically ready.

Cost: The trip is estimated to be around $1,400, which includes simple food, transportation, and accommodations.

Impact on the Children:Health and Wellness: Access to medical and dental care will improve the children’s overall health and well-being, helping them thrive in their daily lives.

  • Spiritual Growth: Through our outreach efforts, the children will have the opportunity to learn about the love of Jesus and grow in their faith.
  • Educational Support: Our presence and support can inspire the children to pursue their education with renewed enthusiasm and determination.

Personal Growth for Participants:

Missions - Timor Leste

Since 2004, Agape Baptist Church has been partnering with Shallom School to provide Timorese children with a good education. Given Timor Leste’s violent past, the hope is for a new history for the nation to be written by a new generation of Timorese with character and leadership. The redemptive key perhaps is education – not just academically but spiritually. This instruction is established upon the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which is the only power for true transformation – from the major strongholds of violence, hatred and unforgiveness. Agape Baptist Church’s and Shallom School’s deep desire is for the gospel to bring shalom to a nation without shalom.

Economic and infrastructural transformation starts with a reformation of hearts and the holistic nurturing of students. This is done with the provision of nutrition, health checkups and imparting of biblical values. As part of the desire to disciple the students, the Bible is taught as part of the curriculum. In partnership with ACS(I) and short-term missionaries, the teachers in Shallom School are equipped to pastor the children in the way of the Lord. Visitors have observed a difference in the children, for example, some have voiced aspirations to contribute back to the nation.

The annual missions giving finances the operations of Shallom school – providing funds to pay salaries of teachers, daily expenses and provide each student with a meal each day. The Church is also mobilised to participate in the following ways:

  • As part of a cell group to “adopt” a class of students through prayer
  • To “adopt” an individual student by paying for his/her school uniform
  • Go on short term engagement trips or as short-term missionaries to Dili
