God is Immanuel
On 20 December, IFGF Surabaya (Indonesia) held an online Christmas Celebration. Ps. Raymond, the lead pastor of IFGF Surabaya who is also a member of the Executive Apostolic Team led this celebration service. Although this year’s Christmas celebration was done online, the joy of Christmas was apparent throughout the service.

Then continued with the praise and worship from IFGF Surabaya’s Praise & Worship Team and followed by testimonies from church members on how God has always been with them throughout the seasons, for God is Immanuel.

Ps. Raymond then preached about “God is Immanuel”, IFGF Surabaya’s theme this Christmas. The 3 points shared by Ps. Raymond were:
- God is with us in every single step in our life. There is no coincidence.
- God is on our side and His plan is always good.
- Jesus Christ is able to save and forgive our sins.
Regardless of the tough year we’ve been facing and all the things we are currently going through, let us remember that God is Immanuel and He will always be here with us.
“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”).
