Smyrna Fellowship is one of the Cantonese-speaking couple fellowships of Silicon Valley Alliance Church. The fellowship was started on January 1999 by seven founding families. Today Smyrna has grown to a size of over 15 families. Most families have kids ages from 1 year old to 13 years old. We commit ourselves wholly to serve our Lord, genuinely loving each other, and open ourselves to newcomers, whether they are believers or not.
What does our name "Smyrna" mean? According to the Bible, the church of Smyrna would be one of the two churches that Jesus praises without rebukes during end-times. Smyrna will always remind each of us to remain faithful even to the point of death till second coming of Christ (Revelation 2:8-11).
Our Mission Statement is as follows:
Provide an environment for:
in-depth sharing and prayer support
newcomers to feel attached
all members to plan and make decisions together (agreed policies here)
Outreach newcomers to participate in church growth
Plant a new fellowship when the above cannot be achieved effectively
We meet on every 2nd and 4th Saturday. We have singspiration, prayer, Bible study and various kinds of programs for us to know each other, to grow spiritually together, and to learn from each other. Also, we have group activities outside church periodically.
We welcome all those who are interested to visit us, and would be very happy if you join us to grow together in Christ.
