Carecell Myths - Busted!

Unsure about taking the first step to visit a carecell? Wondering if you can afford the time?

We identify and debunk common-held carecell myths.

1. A carecell is just a social gathering.      

A carecell is a spiritual family where we encourage, serve and grow in
God through covenantal relationships with one another.



  

2. Attending church service is sufficient; carecells take up unnecessary time.

God has so much in store for us – it is never enough. Carecells are the pulse and life of the church and create an avenue for you to be encouraged in your faith by fellow believers. Carecells give the opportunity to develop strong relationships on a smaller platform. There, you can also discuss God’s Word and how to live out your faith in the midst of challenges.

Remember, God does not want you to be alone; He has other Christians ready to come alongside you!

3. Carecell meetings are boring.

It really depends what you define as boring, but if you are looking for a good time of fun, learning real life applications from the word of God and fellowship, you probably won’t be disappointed.

4. Carecells are only for new Christians.

Carecells are for everyone! Those who are spiritually-mature can help newer Christians grow in the Lord. And it doesn’t matter if you are seven or 70, English or Chinese speaking; there is certainly a carecell for you.

5. I'm an introvert; I don't like meeting new people.

All relationships take time to grow – so give it a try!

People in carecells are generally friendly and willing to take time to get to know you. You probably have more in common than you think.  

6. Carecells require regular attendance and I don't like making commitments.

You are not obliged to attend a carecell after you’ve attended one meeting. Take time to find a carecell that suits you. You will naturally want to be committed to the spiritual family you decide to settle down in!

7. I need to take care of my children and don't have time to attend carecell.

Bring them along - we have family carecells where children are a part of carecell life. The facilitators conducting the lessons in family carecells are equipped through our TENet courses. It’s a great time for the whole family to grow together.

8. I don't drive, and carecells are located so far away.

With hundreds of carecells located across Singapore, there certainly is a carecell located near your school, workplace and home.

9. Friday marks the end of the week and the last thing I want to do is coop myself in someone's home.

There are carecells that meet on Tuesdays too. Or, if you are only available on other days, let us know. We will be glad to help you find one.

10. Okay, I'm convinced. How do I be involved in a carecell?

We’re glad you asked. Just leave your details at the Level 2 Information Counter at Trinity@Adam or Trinity@Paya Lebar and we’ll connect you to a carecell shortly.
