COMMUNITY OF LOVE (COOL)
COOL is a place for having Worship, Fellowship and Discipleship as a community. We encourage our members to study the Bible and grow in intimacy with God through prayer, praise, and worship. In COOL every member can experience warm fellowship with fellow believers through loving friendship and caring. COOL is also a place to develop and multiply God-given talents for ministry in God's Kingdom; to reach out and bring others to experience true life in Jesus Christ.

A Worthwhile Sacrifice
Since I joined COOL Carmel-Gilgal in 2018, the community has shaped my spiritual discipline, as well as my compassionate heart for others. At first, I had to make a difficult trade-off between dedicating my time to attend COOL and having my leisure time. Praise to the Lord, joining COOL has ignited my passion to consistently learn more about Jesus and to have Christian fellowships with other members.
Furthermore, I vividly remember that my COOL cared for me during my tough job-hunting process. They prayed for me without being asked and even gave me financial assistance. I am deeply grateful for my community, and for Jesus, who has placed me into this like-minded community in Christ.
Moving forward, I desire to pray for and exercise compassion to my family, friends, COOL members, colleagues and many others (1 Peter 3:8).

I joined this COOL Judea as a member back in 2011. This is one of the first 180 COOL (it was part of 180 back then, and now it is a part of NextGen).
This COOL is where I can say, I have got to know Christ and became a true believer. My COOL leaders back then nurtured, taught and discipled me to be more like Jesus. Not only that, their passion and love for Jesus always inspired me and stirred my heart to have a deeper relationship with Jesus.
Fast forward to 2020, I have now been entrusted to lead this COOL. My desire is for every member to know Christ personally and to grow in deeper intimacy with God. We want to make this COOL a family; the place where we feel like we belong and that we can grow together to know Christ more.
I admit that I am not a perfect leader or shepherd for the COOL. I have still got so much to learn. There had been at times the feeling of laziness to hold a COOL prayer. But there will always be one person from one of us who will initiate and encourage us to have COOL prayers. I honestly feel blessed every time we have the opportunity to pray for the COOL. Prayer truly makes a difference in the COOL and this COOL is truly a place where we can support and build each other up in faith and spiritual discipline.
I’m truly blessed to be a part of this COOL Judea. A place where I can call my second family.

My Second Family
I joined COOL because I wanted to have more friends in Melbourne and I would’ve never thought that they will become my second family here. The first time I came to COOL, they were all very welcoming, care, and gave me a lot of food. It made me feel extremely comfortable, so I came back the next week, the week after, and until now.
They have become my second family, and they are always there for me in times of need, always encouraging and supporting me. Through COOL, I’ve learned how to pray not only for me but also for others, and I’ve learned the Word of God. Besides, I’ve realised how to love and take care of one another, and I’ve experienced God a lot through COOL. Truly I can see that God is working and showing Himself through my community.
