Celebrating 10 years with the 10th CMA apprentice

In the span of 10 years, CERC is blessed to have had 10 individuals join the Church Ministers’ Apprenticeship (CMA) programme. For a church that was founded in 2008 with a gathering of just 25 people during the first few months, we recognise that God has powerfully worked in CERC to raise up many passionate Christians who are willing to take up the challenge of testing out full-time paid ministry in service to Christ.

A life of servanthood

CERC’s second apprentice, Daniel Lu, recently completed his Ministry Training Strategy (MTS) assessment after undergoing a four-year apprenticeship stint. Daniel’s training took a longer duration than the programme requires, but he has no regrets about it.

Having completed his apprenticeship, Daniel has greater clarity about what ministry he is suitable for and he is now focusing on training to be in some of the various pastoral ministries in CERC.

Here, we speak to Daniel, who reflects on the key lesson he has learned during his time in ministry. He emphasises that the servanthood attitude does not only apply to those in full-time paid ministry but also to Christians working in secular jobs. His rationale was simple — Jesus deserves it.

Now, Daniel is pursuing his Bachelor of Theology under Ridley College’s online programme. He plans to continue his education in Melbourne after the second year of his degree.
